Couple-Group Consensus of Cooperative-Competitive Heterogeneous Multiagent Systems: A Fully Distributed
Abstract:
This article discusses the couple-group consensus for heterogeneous multiagent systems via event-triggered and pinning control methods. Considering cooperative-competitive interaction among the agents, a novel group consensus protocol is designed. As inducing the time-correlation threshold function, a class of fully distributed event-triggered conditions without depending on any global information is proposed. Utilizing the Lyapunov stability theory, some sufficient conditions are obtained. Under hybrid event triggered and pinning control, pinning control strategies are first introduced. It is shown that under the proposed strategies, all agents can asymptotically achieve pinning couple-group consensus with discontinuous communication in a fully distributed way. Furthermore, the Zeno behavior for each agent is overcome. Finally, the reduction of the systems' controller update frequency and the correctness of our conclusions are illustrated by some simulations.
