Abstract
This article investigates adaptive control problems for unknown second-order nonlinear multiagent systems (MASs) via an event-triggered approach. An adaptive event-triggered consensus controller is given to second-order MAS with unknown nonlinear dynamics. We prove that the proposed consensus controller is free from Zeno behavior. Next, an adaptive event-triggered tracking controller is developed for leader-follower MAS with the leader having bounded nonzero control input. Both consensus and tracking controllers are fully distributed, which means that event-triggered controllers only use local cooperative information. Finally, an unknown second-order nonlinear MAS is used to verify the given event-triggered controllers.
