Dynamic Event-Triggered Consensus Control for Multi-Agent Systems Using Adaptive Dynamic Programming

Abstract

The consensus optimal control problem for a class of linear multi-agent systems with directed communication networks is studied in this paper using adaptive dynamic programming. To overcome the restrictions of the agent’s low processing capability and to extend the actuator’s lifetime, consider the event-triggered. In the beginning, a dynamic event-triggered is provided, with several existing static event-triggered serving as special examples. When using the dynamic event-triggered, a longer interval can be shown between any two consecutive event-triggered. Designing a dynamic event-triggered control law becomes more challenging when implemented in directed networks. In addition, on the basis of dynamic event-triggered, a novel adaptive dynamic programming is used to construct a suitable dynamic event-triggered control law, which employs just the interaction information between agents and does not need model dynamics, overcoming the difficulty of solving the algebraic Riccati equation. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulation results, and no agent exhibits Zeno behavior.
