Consensus of Second-Order Hybrid Multiagent Systems by Event-Triggered Strategy
Housheng Su, Xin Wang, Zhigang Zeng · IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics · 2019
In this article, an event-triggered method is proposed to solve the consensus of the second-order hybrid multiagent systems (MASs), which contain discrete-time and continuous-time individuals. First, we give a selection criteria of the coupling gains, the eigenvalues of communication topology, and the event-triggered sampling interval to guarantee the hybrid consensus, which have an impact on system stability, due to the interaction and co-existence of discrete-time and continuous-time individuals. Second, the hybrid second-order consensus under the event-triggered strategy is proven, where the agents communicate with their neighbors and update their controllers only at the triggered instants. Finally, we give some simulation examples to prove the validity of the main results.
