Adaptive Fuzzy Distributed Optimal Event-Triggered Control for High-Order Nonlinear Multiagent Systems

This article investigates the adaptive fuzzy distributed optimal event-triggered (ET) control problem for high-order nonlinear multiagent (NMA) system under weight-unbalanced directed graph. An optimal signal generator with ET mechanism is first established to estimate optimization point and optimal network channel utilization between agents and neighbors. Second, since the ET mechanism is introduced in optimal signal generator, the first-order derivative of optimal virtual signals is not continuous at the trigger instant, a high-order filter is established to estimate high-order derivatives of optimal virtual signals. Based on the optimal signal generator with ET mechanism and high-order filter, an adaptive fuzzy distributed optimal ET control scheme is proposed by backstepping control design technology. It is shown that controlled NMA system is asymptotically stable and the global cost function is minimized. Finally, we apply the proposed distributed optimal ET control approach to marine surface vehicle systems, the simulation and comparison results verify its effectiveness.
