Event-based synchronisation of linear discrete-time dynamical networks

摘要

This study investigates the problem of event-based synchronisation of linear discrete-time dynamical networks. Leader-following and leaderless synchronisations are achieved by a distributed event-trigger strategy. It is shown that feedback control updating is unnecessary until an event is triggered. The combinational-state variables and the Riccati equation are used to construct a Liapunov function and to design the event-triggering conditions. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the theoretical results.
