Abstract

In this article, leader-following consensus of time-scale-type heterogeneous nonlinear multiagent systems (HNMASs) is investigated with dynamic periodic event-triggered mechanism (DPETM). The event detection period in DPETM is determined by a function-dependent threshold, whose initial value and the value at each periodic event detection instant are used for the update of an auxiliary function in the DPETM. Furthermore, the auxiliary function with periodic jumps serves as a detection threshold. To guarantee the nonincreasing behavior of the designed non-negative analysis function, a weighted function is devised that shares the same derivative form as the function that determines the detection period during each detection period. Then, by integrating the theory of time scales and graph theory, leader-following consensus is achieved in a periodic communication fashion with fewer sampling updates. Two examples are presented to illustrate the validity of the results.
