The composite nonlinear feedback (CNF) control problem with event-triggered strategy for saturated systems with measurement feedback is considered in this paper. Both the full-order measurement and the reduced-order one are investigated to ensure the satisfactory performance of the closed-loop saturated systems under the proposed event-triggered mechanism. Generally speaking, the CNF control is divided into the linear control part and the nonlinear control part, which are designed separately. The purpose of the former is to shorten the rise time, while the latter aims at reducing the overshoot caused by the former. In this paper, a co-design method of linear and nonlinear control parts is proposed such that the control output tracks the reference input asymptotically with a good transient performance. Moreover, the parameter of CNF is applied to the construction of event-triggered mechanism which can efficiently reduce the communication burden. In order to avoid Zeno behavior, the minimum event-triggering time interval is explicitly formulated. Finally, an example of fighter aircraft is given for illustration.
