Event-triggered tracking control for switched nonlinear systems.

In this paper, we study the output tracking control problem based on the event-triggered mechanism for cascade switched nonlinear systems. Firstly, an integral controller based on event-triggered conditions is designed, and the output tracking error of the closed-loop system can converge to a bounded region under the switching signal satisfying the average dwell time. Secondly, it is proved that the proposed minimum inter-event interval always has a positive lower bound and the Zeno behavior is successfully avoided during the sampling process. Finally, the numerical simulation is given to verify the feasibility of the proposed method.
