Improved Event-Triggered Consensus Control for Multi-Agent Systems

In this paper, we propose centralised consensus control approach based on event-triggered control for multi-agent systems (MASs). Firstly, a centralised event-triggered mechanism is designed to achieve consensus of MASs. Secondly, event interval analysis of the MAS is given to prove there is no Zeno behavior. Next, the self-triggered control is provided to reduce the energy of sampling. Then, we provide the adaptive event-triggered mechanism of the MASs considering the value of measurement error. Finally, an example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control methods.
