This paper investigates a novel distributed fuzzy adaptive iterative learning control protocol of exact consensus for second-order unknown nonlinear strict-feedback multi-agent systems with partially unknown time-varying control directions. Fuzzy logic system estimates the unknown nonlinear dynamics of each agent. Based on Nussbaum function, the control protocols of all follower agents with partially unknown virtual and actual control directions are designed by the backstepping method. The proposed protocol guarantees that the output of every follower agent could exactly track the desired output trajectory on a finite time interval. As an extension, the formation control results can also be solved. Finally, two simulation examples prove that the proposed control scheme is effective and rigorous.
