Distributed Fixed-Time Triggering-Based Containment Control for Networked Nonlinear Agents Under Directed Graphs

This paper discusses the distributed fixed-time containment control for networked nonlinear systems via the event/self-triggered approaches over directed graphs. A distributed event-triggered control protocol without continuous control updates is first proposed. In order to relieve the chattering effect, a modified distributed event-triggered control law is developed. To further overcome the drawback of continuous state monitoring and reduce the...
