Periodic Event-Triggering Mechanisms for Nonlinear Event-triggered Control Systems

In this communique, a technique is proposed to convert general nonlinear continuous event-triggered control systems to periodic event-triggered control systems. The main idea is based on a nonlinear time invariant dynamic, that can be used to upper bound a internal variant between two successive sampling times. The redesigned periodic event-triggering mechanism guarantees the corresponding periodic event-triggered control system preserving the control performance of the original continuous event-triggered control system.
