Decentralized event-triggered consensus with general linear dynamics

Event-triggered cooperative control with general linear dynamics and communication delays

“…The main contribution of the present paper with respect to previous work [25], [26] is the design of events in the presence of communication delays while in those papers delays were assumed to be negligible. Decentralized event thresholds that guarantee practical consensus and strictly positive inter-event times are designed in this paper.…”

“…A similar model-based framework was proposed in [27] where only constant thresholds were used. In this paper we follow a similar approach as in [25], [26]. One difference with respect to those papers is that the local control input is based on the local state and model states of neighbors rather than on model states of all, local agent and neighbors.…”

“…In our previous work [25] and [26] we proposed a novel approach in which each agent implements models of the decoupled dynamics of each one of its neighbors and uses the model states to compute the local control input. This approach offered better performance than Zero-Order-Hold (ZOH) approach used in [23] and [24] where the updates from neighbors are kept constant by the local agent.…”

New state estimators and communication protocol for distributed event‐triggered consensus of linear multi‐agent systems with bounded perturbations

“…Consensus is an important problem in cooperative control, see [2,7,8,15,19]. In such problem, several agents have to be synchronized to the same state.…”

Event-Triggered Pinning Control of Switching Networks

“…Event-triggered control was introduced to limit the amount of communication instances for feedback systems [22]. Recently, event-triggered control has been extended to multiagent systems [23]- [29].…”
