Abstract This work focuses on the consensus problem of multi-agent systems (MASs) under event-triggered control (ETC) subject to denial-of-service (DoS) jamming attacks. To reduce the cost of communication networks, a novel event-triggering mechanism (ETM) is applied to the sleeping interval to determine whether the sampled signal should be transmitted or not. Unlike periodic DoS attacks model, the DoS attacks occurrence are irregular, where attack attributes such as attack frequency and attack duration are taken into account. Moreover, compared with the fixed topological graph, the communication topologies may change due to DoS jamming attacks in this work. In view of this, based on the piecewise Lyapunov functional, sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee that consensus problem of the MASs can be solved. Finally, the effectiveness and correctness of the theoretical results are verified by a numerical example.

This paper investigates the event-triggered consensus problem of second-order nonlinear multi-agent systems subject to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, which make the communication network unable to provide normal services. Considering a general class of DoS attack with limited duration, a novel distributed event-triggered consensus protocol accompanied with first-order hold is adopted to guarantee the globally bounded consensus convergence under directed network topology. Based on the linear matrix inequality approach and Lyapunov stability method, consensus converging properties are analysed and sufficient criteria are obtained. Furthermore, Zeno-free triggering of our proposed protocol is demonstrated. Finally, a numerical simulation is given to show the effectiveness of our theoretical results.

Event-triggered bipartite consensus of single-integrator multi-agent systems is investigated in the presence of measurement noise. A time-varying gain function is proposed in the event-triggered bipartite consensus protocol to reduce the negative effects of the noise corrupted information processed by the agents. Using the state transition matrix, Ito^ formula, and the algebraic graph theory, necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the proposed protocol to yield mean square bipartite consensus. We find that the weakest communication requirement to ensure the mean square bipartite consensus under event-triggered protocol is that the signed digraph is structurally balanced and contains a spanning tree. Numerical examples validated the theoretical findings where the system shows no Zeno behavior.

Abstract This paper is concerned with cluster consensus of linear multi-agent systems via a distributed event-triggered control scheme. Assume that agents can be split into several clusters and a leader is associated with each cluster. Sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee the realization of cluster consensus by a feasible event-triggered controller if the network topology of each cluster has a directed spanning tree and the couplings within each cluster are sufficiently strong. Further, positive inner-event time intervals are ensured for the proposed event-triggered strategy to avoid Zeno behaviors. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

The consensus problem of fractional-order multi-agent systems is investigated by eventtriggered control in this paper. Based on the graph theory and the Lyapunov functional approach, the conditions for guaranteeing the consensus are derived. Then, according to some basic theories of fractional-order differential equation and some properties of Mittag–Leffler function, the Zeno behavior could be excluded. Finally, a simulation example is given to check the effectiveness of the theoretical result.

This study presents a new approach for multi-agent systems (MASs). The agent dynamics are approximated by the suggested type-3 (T3) fuzzy logic system (FLS). Some sufficient conditions based on the event-triggered scheme are presented to ensure the stability under less activation of the actuators. New tuning rules are obtained for T3-FLSs form the stability and robustness examination. The effect of perturbations, actuator failures and approximation errors are compensated by the designed adaptive compensators. Simulation results show that the output of all agents well converged to the leader agent under disturbances and faulty conditions. Additionally, it is shown that the suggested event-triggered scheme is effective and the actuators are updated about 20–40% of total sample times.
