Abstract
This article investigates the issues of predefined-time global phase agreement (PA) and frequency synchronization (FS) for both identical and nonidentical coupled Kuramoto oscillators by developing distributed chattering-free control protocols. Unlike traditional finite-/fixed-time convergence, the upper bounds of settling time for achieving the predefined-time PA and FS are explicit constants, which are tunable and set beforehand without depending on the network information, initial conditions, and controlling parameters. In particular, the proposed control protocols are differentiable, namely, chattering-free, which do not comprise the conventional discontinuous absolute value and/or signum functions anymore. Therefore, the undesirable chattering problem is effectively overcome. Then, in the light of the second Lyapunov method, the sufficient conditions are deduced for guaranteeing the predefined-time global PA and FS of Kuramoto-oscillator networks accordingly. Finally, the numerical results validate the effectiveness of the proposed chattering-free control schemes.
本文通过开发分布式无颤振控制协议,研究了相同和非相同耦合仓本振荡器的预定时间全局相位一致(PA)和频率同步(FS)问题。与传统的有限/固定时间收敛不同,实现预定时间 PA 和 FS 的沉降时间上限是显式常数,可事先调整和设定,而不依赖于网络信息、初始条件和控制参数。特别是,所提出的控制协议是可微分的,即无颤振,不再包含传统的不连续绝对值和/或符号函数。因此,有效克服了不可取的颤振问题。然后,根据第二Lyapunov方法,相应地推导出了保证Kuramoto-振子网络预定时间全局PA和FS的充分条件。最后,数值结果验证了所提出的无颤振控制方案的有效性。
