To improve communication efficiency, an edge-based dynamic event-triggered mechanism is developed for the communication channels between neighboring QUAVs. However, this edge-based dynamic event-triggered communication(DETC) may cause discontinuities in the reference signals. To solve this problem, a distributed estimator is designed for each QUAV to obtain the leader's output signals. Considering the safety of QUAV formation flying, this paper designs a function transformation method that constrains the attitudes of the QUAVs to a strictly safe region. Furthermore, an inverse optimal control strategy is proposed based on the backstepping methodology. This scheme not only minimizes the cost function but also avoids the necessity of solving the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. Finally, the stability of the QUAV systems is proven using Lyapunov theory, and the effectiveness of the proposed control method is verified through simulation.展开更多

In sharp contrast to previous works, the considered systems possess two important characteristics: (i) The uncertain nonlinear terms meet the linearly unmeasurable-states dependent growth with the growth rate being an unknown function of the input and output. (ii) There exist input matching uncertainty and unknown measurement sensitivity. By introducing a single dynamic gain and employing a cleverly devised event-triggering mechanism (ETM), we design a new gain-based event-triggered output-feedback controller, which globally regulates all states of the considered systems and maintains global boundedness of the closed-loop system. Furthermore, the estimation of input matching uncertainty achieves convergence towards its actual value, and Zeno behavior does not happen. Two simulation examples including a practical one show that the proposed approach is effective.展开更多

First, a new fixedtime stability condition is obtained where the less conservative settling time is given such that the theoretical settling time can well reflect the real consensus time. Second, a dynamic event-triggered rule is designed to decrease the use of chip and network resources where Zeno behaviors can be avoided after consensus is achieved, especially for finite/fixed-time consensus control approaches. Third, in terms of the developed dynamic event-triggered rule, a fixed-time consensus control approach by introducing a new item is proposed to coordinate the multi-agent system to reach consensus. The corresponding stability of the multi-agent system with the proposed control approach and dynamic eventtriggered rule is analyzed based on Lyapunov theory and the fixed-time stability theorem. At last, the effectiveness of the dynamic event-triggered fixed-time consensus control approach is verified by simulations and experiments for the problem of magnetic map construction based on multiple mobile robots.展开更多

Of interest is the fact that the parallel control technique's introduction provides an unprecedented perspective on eliminating the negative effects of disturbance. Then, an eventtriggered mechanism is adopted to save communication resources while ensuring the system's stability. The coupled HamiltonJacobi(HJ) equation's solution is approximated using a critic neural network(NN), whose weights are updated in response to events. Furthermore, theoretical analysis reveals that the weight estimation error is uniformly ultimately bounded(UUB). Finally,numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed ETRPOC method.展开更多

To improve communication efficiency, an edge-based dynamic event-triggered mechanism is developed for the communication channels between neighboring QUAVs. However, this edge-based dynamic event-triggered communication(DETC) may cause discontinuities in the reference signals. To solve this problem, a distributed estimator is designed for each QUAV to obtain the leader's output signals. Considering the safety of QUAV formation flying, this paper designs a function transformation method that constrains the attitudes of the QUAVs to a strictly safe region. Furthermore, an inverse optimal control strategy is proposed based on the backstepping methodology. This scheme not only minimizes the cost function but also avoids the necessity of solving the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. Finally, the stability of the QUAV systems is proven using Lyapunov theory, and the effectiveness of the proposed control method is verified through simulation.

文摘This article deals with the consensus problem of multi-agent systems by developing a fixed-time consensus control approach with a dynamic event-triggered rule. First, a new fixedtime stability condition is obtained where the less conservative settling time is given such that the theoretical settling time can well reflect the real consensus time. Second, a dynamic event-triggered rule is designed to decrease the use of chip and network resources where Zeno behaviors can be avoided after consensus is achieved, especially for finite/fixed-time consensus control approaches. Third, in terms of the developed dynamic event-triggered rule, a fixed-time consensus control approach by introducing a new item is proposed to coordinate the multi-agent system to reach consensus. The corresponding stability of the multi-agent system with the proposed control approach and dynamic eventtriggered rule is analyzed based on Lyapunov theory and the fixed-time stability theorem. At last, the effectiveness of the dynamic event-triggered fixed-time consensus control approach is verified by simulations and experiments for the problem of magnetic map construction based on multiple mobile robots.

文摘This paper provides an improved model-free adaptive control(IMFAC)strategy for solving the surface vessel trajectory tracking issue with time delay and restricted disturbance.Firstly,the original nonlinear time-delay system is transformed into a structure consisting of an unknown residual term and a parameter term with control inputs using a local compact form dynamic linearization(local-CFDL).To take advantage of the resulting structure,use a discrete-time extended state observer(DESO)to estimate the unknown residual factor.Then,according to the study,the inclusion of a time delay has no effect on the linearization structure,and an improved control approach is provided,in which DESO is used to adjust for uncertainties.Furthermore,a DESO-based event-triggered model-free adaptive control(ET-DESO-MFAC)is established by designing event-triggered conditions to assure Lyapunov stability.Only when the system’s indicator fulfills the provided event-triggered condition will the control input signal be updated;otherwise,the control input will stay the same as it is at the last trigger moment.A coordinate compensation approach is developed to reduce the steady-state inaccuracy of trajectory tracking.Finally,simulation experiments are used to assess the effectiveness of the proposed technique for trajectory tracking.
文摘The event-triggered mechanism serves as an effective discontinuous control strategy for addressing the consensus tracking problem in multiagent systems(MASs).This approach optimizes energy consumption by updating the controller only when some observed errors exceed a predefined threshold.Considering the influence of noise on agent dynamics in complex control environments,this study investigates an event-triggered control scheme for stochastic MASs,where noise is modeled as Brownian motion.Furthermore,the communication topology of the stochastic MASs is assumed to exhibit a Markovian switching mechanism.Analytical criteria are derived to guarantee consensus tracking in the mean square sense,and a numerical example is provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control methods.

文摘This paper investigates the problem of dynamic event-triggered control for a class of large-scale nonlinear systems.In particular,both neutral delays and unknown backlash-like hysteresis are considered.This requires to integrate a compensation mechanism into the event-triggered control architecture.To this end,dynamic gain and adaptive control techniques are introduced to address the effects of neutral delays,unknown hysteresis and parameter uncertainties simultaneously.By introducing a non-negative internal dynamic variable,a dynamic event-triggered controller is designed using the hyperbolic tangent function to reduce the communication burden.By means of the Lyapunov–Krasovskii method,it is demonstrated that all signals of the closed-loop system are globally bounded and eventually converge to a tunable bounded region.Moreover,the Zeno behavior is avoided.Finally,a simulation example is presented to verify the validity of the control scheme.

文摘This paper investigates the time-varying formation problem for general linear multi-agent systems using distributed event-triggered control strategy.Different from the previous works,to achieve the desired time-varying formation,a distributed control scheme is designed in an event-triggered way,in which for each agent the controller is triggered only at its own event times.The interaction topology among agents is assumed to be switching.The common Lyapunov function as well as Riccati inequality is applied to solve the time-varying formation problem.Moreover,the Zeno behavior of triggering time sequences can be excluded for each agent.Finally,a simulation example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

文摘In this paper,a novel hybrid event-triggered control(ETC)method is developed based on the online action-critic technique,which aims at tackling the optimal regulation problem of discrete-time nonlinear systems.In order to ensure the normal execution of the online learning algorithm,a stability criterion condition is created to obtain the initial admissible control policy by using an offline iterative method under the time-triggered control framework.Subsequently,a general triggering condition is designed based on the uniform ultimate boundedness of the controlled system.In order to determine a constant interval which can ensure the system stability,another triggering condition is introduced and the asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system satisfying this condition is analyzed from the perspective of the input-to-state stability.The designed online hybrid ETC method not only further improves control efficiency,but also avoids the continuous judgment of the corresponding triggering condition.In addition,the event-based control law can approach the optimal control input within a finite approximation error.Finally,two experimental examples with physical background are conducted to indicate the present results.

文摘This paper highlights the utilization of parallel control and adaptive dynamic programming(ADP) for event-triggered robust parallel optimal consensus control(ETRPOC) of uncertain nonlinear continuous-time multiagent systems(MASs).First, the parallel control system, which consists of a virtual control variable and a specific auxiliary variable obtained from the coupled Hamiltonian, allows general systems to be transformed into affine systems. Of interest is the fact that the parallel control technique's introduction provides an unprecedented perspective on eliminating the negative effects of disturbance. Then, an eventtriggered mechanism is adopted to save communication resources while ensuring the system's stability. The coupled HamiltonJacobi(HJ) equation's solution is approximated using a critic neural network(NN), whose weights are updated in response to events. Furthermore, theoretical analysis reveals that the weight estimation error is uniformly ultimately bounded(UUB). Finally,numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed ETRPOC method.

文摘This paper studies the problem of designing a modelbased decentralized dynamic periodic event-triggering mechanism(DDPETM)for networked control systems(NCSs)subject to packet losses and external disturbances.Firstly,the entire NCSs,comprising the triggering mechanism,packet losses and output-based controller,are unified into a hybrid dynamical framework.Secondly,by introducing dynamic triggering variables,the DDPETM is designed to conserve network resources while guaranteeing desired performance properties and tolerating the maximum allowable number of successive packet losses.Thirdly,some stability conditions are derived using the Lyapunov approach.Differing from the zero-order-hold(ZOH)case,the model-based control sufficiently exploits the model information at the controller side.Between two updates,the controller predicts the plant state based on the models and received feedback information.With the model-based control,less transmission may be expected than with ZOH.Finally,numerical examples and comparative experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
