Event-Triggered Control for Nonlinear Time-Delay Systems (2206.03640v1)

Abstract: This article studies the event-triggered control problem of general nonlinear systems with time delay. A novel event-triggering scheme is presented with two tunable design parameters, based on a Lyapunov functional result for the input-to-state stability of time-delay systems. The proposed event-triggered control algorithm guarantees the resulting closed-loop systems to be globally asymptotically stable, uniformly bounded, and/or globally attractive for different choices of these parameters. Sufficient conditions on the parameters are derived to exclude Zeno behavior. Two illustrative examples are studied to demonstrate our theoretical results.
