Data-driven Control of Dynamic Event-triggered Systems with Delays

This paper studies data-driven control of unknown sampled-data systems with communication delays under an eventtriggering transmission mechanism. Data-based representations for time-invariant linear systems with known or unknown system input matrices are first developed, along with a novel class of dynamic triggering schemes for sampled-data systems with time delays. A model-based stability condition for the resulting event-triggered time-delay system is established using a loopedfunctional approach. Combining this model-based condition with the data-driven representations, data-based stability conditions are derived. Building on the data-based conditions, methods for co-designing the controller gain and the event-triggering matrix are subsequently provided for both cases with or without using the input matrix. Finally, numerical examples are presented to corroborate the usefulness of additional prior knowledge of the input matrix in reducing the conservatism of stability conditions, as well as the merits of the proposed data-driven event-triggered control schemes relative to existing results.
