Abstract: In this paper, the formation control problem of networked multi-agent systems (MASs) with communication constraints is investigated. Firstly, a novel event-triggered transmission strategy is proposed to ensure both communication performance and control performance of the system. Secondly, a leader-following formation control strategy is designed to transform the formation control problem into the stability problem of a closed-loop system with time-varying delay. Thirdly, an integrated design scheme is developed to achieve the parameters of the new event-triggered transmission strategy and the control protocol simultaneously by using Lyapunov-Krasovskii function and linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique. Finally, a simulation example is provided to illustrate effectiveness of the proposed method.
