Multi-Group Tracking Control for MASs of UAV with a Novel Event-Triggered Scheme
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- 1.
- Multi-group tracking control is employed for multi-agent systems of UAV rather than the single target tracking control, and the control scheme is based on event-triggered and impulsive theory, which is more practical to accommodate complex cooperative control compared to the existing research [18,25] on single target tracking control and pure impulsive control scheme.
- 2.
- A new event-triggered scheme is designed that contains multiple tunable parameters compared to the studies [26,27,28], which can better regulate and optimize the triggering frequency by adjusting the parameters. The fine triggering helps achieve precise tracking control performance, and the Zeno phenomenon is proven to be excluded.
- 3.
- Several types of network interference of UAVs introduced below Equation (5) and in Remark 8 have been taken into consideration, which can effectively cope with certain forms of network interference and disruptions. Sufficient conditions for the new secure tracking control are obtained.
