Quasi-Consensus of Disturbed Nonlinear Multiagent Systems with Event-Triggered Impulsive Control

Abstract

Considering the external disturbances, in this paper, the quasi-consensus of multiagent systems is studied via event-triggered impulsive control. By designing a novel event-triggered mechanism (ETM), sufficient conditions to realize leader-following quasi-consensus are derived with event-triggered impulsive control. Additionally, Zeno behavior is also excluded. It is shown that the event-triggered frequency is closely related to the parameters selected in the designed ETM, and less conservative results can be obtained compared with the existing results. Finally, a simulation example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed results.
