In this paper, based on nonuniform sampling, the master-slave synchronization in a class of Lur'e systems is studied via using the sampled outputs of error system. Different from existing results, the transmission of control signals is determined by a novel adaptive event-triggered scheme, where the triggering thresholds depend on the dynamic behaviors of controlled systems rather than the predetermined constants as some traditional ones. Through choosing two augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals (LKFs), some delay-dependent synchronization criteria are formulated and the conservatism can be effectively reduced owing to the utilization of Wirtinger-based inequalities and delay-product-type LKF terms. Especially, the existence of the controller can be easily checked since the derived conditions are presented via LMI forms. Finally, two numerical examples with comparisons and simulations are given to illustrate the proposed results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
