  Controllers with a diagonal-plus-low-rank structure constitute a scalable
class of controllers for multi-agent systems. Previous research has shown that
diagonal-plus-low-rank control laws appear as the optimal solution to a class
of multi-agent H2 coordination problems, which arise in the control of wind
farms. In this paper we show that this result extends to the case where the
information exchange between agents is subject to limitations. We also show
that the computational effort required to obtain the optimal controller is
independent of the number of agents and provide analytical expressions that
quantify the usefulness of information exchange.
