Abstract
This article deals with the event-triggered leader-following guaranteed cost consensus control problem for second-order nonlinear multiagent systems, in which the guaranteed cost function is proposed to facilitate to enhance the consensus tracking regulation performance. To reduce the frequency of information transmission, a distributed event-triggered mechanism, which broadcasts the triggered states to its neighbours for each agent, is designed, and the triggering condition is then constructed for leader-following second-order nonlinear multiagent systems. By employing Lyapunov–Krasovskii method and Barbalat’s lemma, some sufficient conditions are derived to ensure the leader-following consensus and guaranteed cost performance for second-order nonlinear multiagent systems. It is also exhibited that the constructed triggering condition can efficaciously exclude the Zeno behavior. To testify the efficacy of the proposed theoretical methodology, a simulation example is offered.
