Fault-Tolerant Synchronization Control of Switched Complex Networks by a Proportional-Integral Intermediate Observer Approach

This article addresses synchronization control of switched CN with unknown state and actuator fault. A mode-dependent proportional-integral intermediate observer is explored to estimate unknown elements with high-estimation accuracy. A hybrid controller is constructed to treat the asynchronous occurrence of impulses and switching moments. With the help of mode-dependent average dwell time and mode-dependent average impulsive interval, a mode-dependent criterion is established to guarantee the uniformly bounded synchronization performance. Two examples are simulated to deliver the effectiveness of the proposed method.
