Model-Based Dynamic Event-Triggered Control for Systems With Uncertainty: A Hybrid System Approach
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control · 2020 · 74 citations
In this article, the event-triggered control problem for linear systems with uncertainties is addressed. A model-based dynamic event-triggered transmission strategy is proposed for linear systems, and for systems that can be decomposed into interconnected subsystems, a distributed model-based dynamic event-triggered transmission strategy is also proposed with transmission delays and transmission protocols in the networks. The whole systems are modeled into a hybrid system framework by introducin…
Robust Coordinated Hybrid Source Seeking With Obstacle Avoidance in Multivehicle Autonomous Systems
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control · 2021 · 45 citations
In multivehicle autonomous systems that operate under unknown or adversarial environments, it is a challenging task to simultaneously achieve source seeking and obstacle avoidance. Indeed, even for single-vehicle systems, smooth time-invariant feedback controllers based on navigation or barrier functions have been shown to be highly susceptible to arbitrarily small jamming signals that can induce instability in the closed-loop system, or that are able to stabilize spurious equilibria in the oper…

articleIn this article, the stability problem for event-triggered nonlinear control systems is addressed in the presence of stochastic denial of service attacks on the communication network. Dynamic event-triggered control and periodic event-triggered control are considered under the stochastic attacks. The stochastic attacks are modeled by a stochastic hybrid timer and a logic variable which is used to identify whether the network is attacked or not. Then, the entire closed-loop system can be modeled…
