Event-Triggered Based H-Infinity Consensus Control For Multi-Agent Systems Under Time-Varying Delay

This article addresses the event triggered based H-infinity consensus control problem for Multi-Agent Systems (MASs) with a directed graph under time-varying delay. The event-triggered communication scheme is utilized to overcome the unnecessary utilization of communication bandwidth. Based on this event-trigger scheme a consensus control protocol is presented. The consensus control problem of MAS is transferred into the stability problem of a closed-loop system under time-varying delay. Furthermore, a new version of Lyapunov function (LF) is presented to establish H-infinity performance index in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), which is different from the tradition (Liu et al., 2014) and attained less conservative results. Finally, a simulation illustration is provided to exhibit the design method.
