Adaptive fuzzy event-triggered cooperative control for fractional-order delayed multi-agent systems with unknown control direction.

In this paper, the cooperative control of fractional-order multi-agent systems with time delay and unknown control direction is studied by combining frequency distributed model and event-triggered mechanism. The Nussbaum function is employed to address the unmeasured control direction. Then, through the event-triggered mechanism, a corresponding controller is designed, which can guarantee that all signals are bounded while saving resources. The proposed theme is convenient for analyzing the stability of fractional-order systems based on a transformation of frequency distributed model. In particular, in order to enhance the universality of the proposed scheme in the fractional-order system stability analysis, a generalized fractional-order generalized lemma with respect to the Nussbaum function is given. Finally, the availability of the proposed method is confirmed by a simulation example. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
