Abstract:
The consensus problem via event-triggered strategy of nonlinear multi-agent systems (MASs) with Markovian switching topologies is addressed in this paper. To simplify information transmission, a distributed event-triggered mechanism (ETM) is designed. By combining the Markovian switching topologies and ETM, an appropriate consensus control protocol is presented. Considering the impact of delay on systems stability, the system model is transformed by the delay system approach. By choosing a Lyapunov-Krasovskii function and applying linear matrix inequalities technique, sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure the consensus stability with H∞ norm bound of the MASs. A numerical simulation is given to confirm the effectiveness of the designed method.
