Leader-Following Consensus of Multi-agent Systems with DoS Attacks via Fully Distributed Event-Triggered Control Approach

This article investigates the leader-following consensus for multi-agent systems (MAS) under denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. The article proposes a neoteric dynamic event-triggered mechanism to reduce dependence on communication resources. Gleichzeitig, an adaptive coefficient is introduced to address the fact that the designed control protocol is fully distributed in the presence of attacks. The article provides restrictive conditions on the attack frequency and duration for achieving the leader-following consensus of MAS and offers rigorous proofs. Additionally, it proves the absence of Zeno behavior under the designed dynamic event-triggering mechanism. Lastly, simulation has been used to confirm the efficacy of the suggested approach.
