Adaptive saturated two-bit-triggered bipartite consensus control for networked MASs with periodic disturbances: a low-computation method.

This paper investigates the bipartite tracking control problem for a family of networked multi-agent systems with periodic disturbances as well as input saturation. A low-computation two-bit-triggered adaptive control strategy is proposed to achieve precise trajectory tracking and maintain the boundedness of the closed-loop signals. Compared with the existing results, first, this paper considers the problems for the coexistence of cooperation and competition in multi-agent systems, which represents a more common situation; secondly, the explosion of complexity issue is avoided without introducing any auxiliary filters, making our result more applicable and less complex; thirdly, a function approximator incorporating Fourier series expansion and a radial basis function neural network is utilized to model time-varying periodic disturbance functions and lastly, unlike traditional event-triggered control, the issue of controlling signal transmission bits is further explored to conserve system transmission resources. The result from a comparative simulation illustrates the advantages of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
