Event-triggered finite-time practical consensus of multiagent systems with general directed communication graphs Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • SummaryIn this article, an eventtriggered sampleddata implementation of a class of finitetime consensus controllers is considered for firstorder multiagent systems under general directed communication graphs. Each agent only updates its control input at its eventtriggering time instants. From any initial condition of the agents, it is rigorously proved that the proposed control strategy can achieve consensus with arbitrarily small errors in a finite time. Zeno behavior is also proven to be excluded. Moreover, a selftriggered sampleddata implementation is proposed to further reduce the communication requirement. Both leaderless and leaderfollowing consensus are considered. Generalizations to eventtriggered consensus of secondorder multiagent systems are then presented. Simulations of the frequency and voltage control of smart grids are finally given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed protocols.
