- Abstract
- In this article, we investigate the event-triggered containment control problem for a class of multiagent systems, where agents are described by higher-order linear dynamics subject to stochastic disturbances. In event-triggered control scenarios, the control action is updated when a specified error reaches a given threshold. Due to the existence of stochastic factors, the given threshold may be reached in an any short time interval, which makes it hard to avoid Zeno behavior. In view of this, we propose two novel event-triggered containment control schemes for the underlying multiagent systems with stochastic disturbances. Using the stochastic control theory, graph theory, and Lyapunov functional method, it is proven that the followers' states can almost surely converge to the convex hull spanned by the leaders' states. It is noted that the continuous communications among agents are not required and each agent's inter-event intervals are lower-bounded by a positive constant. As such, the proposed control schemes are both practical and implementable. Finally, a numerical example is presented to illustrate the developed schemes' effectiveness.
