Improved Fixed-Time Event-Triggered Average Consensus of Multi-Agent Systems Under DoS Attacks

This brief investigates the fixed-time average consensus (FxTAC) of nonlinear multi-agent systems (MASs) subjected to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Some less conservative fixed-time criterions are proposed to handle with DoS attacks. Then, the attainment of FxTAC is realized through the implementation of distributed event-triggered control (ETC). Moreover, the newly proposed average consensus control strategies effectively prevent the occurrence of Zeno behavior. Finally, a numerical example is proposed to verify the validity of the theoretical results.
