Event-triggered H∞ tracking for large-scale interconnected systems

This paper is concerned with the co-design problems of event generator and H-infinity tracking control for largescale interconnected systems with disturbances. A novel event-triggered mechanism is introduced to determine when the local tracking error signals will be transmitted. By introducing the spectral decomposition technique, a sufficient condition is presented to guarantee robust stability of the system with an optimal H-infinity disturbance attenuation level. A simulation example of master-slave multiple vehicles is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
