In this paper, bipartite consensus of linear multi‐agent systems with structually balanced signed network is investigated. In particularly, control protocols for consensus are considered to work under an intermittent framework due to some unavoidable factors. Meanwhile, the event‐triggered mechanism is introduced in order to reduce the update frequency of control input. Based on distributed intermittent event‐triggered control, some sufficient conditions are proposed to ensure leaderless and leader‐following bipartite consensus. Moreover, minimum event‐triggered intervals are set to be positive in advance to exclude Zeno behavior. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to verify the effectiveness of theoretical results.
