Abstract
This article investigates the event-triggered synchronization control problem of discrete-time neural networks (DNNs) in the case of periodic sampled-data. A discrete-time periodic event-triggered mechanism is adopted to evaluate the measurements, which avoids formulating the triggering function in a continuous manner and saves energy consumption. Under this framework, an event-triggered dynamic output-feedback controller is designed to achieve the goal of synchronization. A piecewise Lyapunov functional is constructed to analyze the sawtooth-like pattern of sampled-error signals. Thereafter, the synchronization criteria are formulated for the considered DNNs. The co-designed issue is further discussed for the control gains and triggering parameter. Finally, a simulation example is presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
