Peihu Duan, Kexin Liu, Na Huang, Zhisheng Duan · IEEE Transactions on Systems Man and Cybernetics Systems · 2018
This paper investigates an event-based tracking problem of networked second-order systems with unknown inertias and switching networks, where the leader's trajectory is dynamic and is available to only a subset of followers. Besides, the followers have only local interactions. A new class of distributed event-triggered control protocols with and without velocity measurements are designed to guarantee the tracking performance. Furthermore, it is strictly proved that the proposed algorithms guarantee a fully Zeno-free triggering for all the agents. Finally, simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed theoretical results.
