Privacy-Preserving Average Consensus With Beaver Triple and Communication Obfuscation

Journal Article · · IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control

A privacy-preserving average consensus algorithm is proposed that synergizes the Beaver triple in secret sharing theory and noise obfuscation. The algorithm safeguards the initial values of agents against passive adversaries in a multiagent system. It is proved that the proposed algorithm can concurrently ensure average consensus and privacy, while also reducing the online computation and communication overhead compared to encryption-based ones. In addition, it imposes a less stringent condition for privacy preservation compared to certain noise-obfuscation techniques.
