Distributed Event-triggered Control

<div>This book focuses on distributed event-triggered control of multi-agent systems in which the event-triggering mechanism is utilized to reduce the communication frequencies in order to compensate for constrained network bandwidths an aspect that poses significant challenges for distributed control design. The book summarizes the authors��� original systematic contributions on scalability and robustness two core issues in distributed event-triggered control. Specifically the book presents fully distributed adaptive event-triggered control laws; as they rely on neither continuous communications nor global information on the network these laws are scalable with regard to network size and topology. Moreover the book provides novel and robust event-triggered algorithms which can accommodate various frequency-domain and matching uncertainties. <p></p></div><div>The results presented here are applicable to UAV swarms automobile systems aerospace systems vehicle platooning and more and will be of considerable interest to graduate students researchers and engineers working on network control systems. <p></p></div>
