Abstract
SummaryIn this article, we investigate the mean‐square consensus tracking problem of nonlinear MASs subjected to external disturbances under stochastic switching topologies. An aperiodically intermittent control strategy is proposed to guarantee consensus tracking in the mean‐square sense, which depends only on the local state information of the neighbors and the leader. The stochastic switching signal of the interaction topologies is modeled as a continuous‐time Markov process, and the aperiodically intermittent control method is driven by a discrete‐time series of stochastic samples, that are independent of each other. Moreover, several sufficient conditions are established to ensure the feasibility of the control strategy. The proofs are given by employing matrix inequality theory and Lyapunov stability theory. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to verify the feasibility of the proposed theoretical results.
