Abstract:
This paper solves the leaderless consensus problem of multiple nonholonomic mobile robots over undirected graphs by a novel distributed event-triggered controller where a persistently exciting signal is utilized to overcome the nonholonomic constraint. A new triggering mechanism containing two triggering conditions is developed with respect to the cascaded structure of the closed-loop system which makes the leaderless consensus problem tractable in the sense that we no longer need to find any strict Lyapunov function for the entire closed-loop system. It is proven in order that the solution of the closed-loop system is uniformly globally bounded, that the full consensus subspace is uniformly globally exponentially attractive, and that the Zeno behavior shall never occur. A numerical example is provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed controller. (c) 2025 Elsevier Ltd.
