abstract
This paper is concerned with the consensus problem for multi-agent systems with switching
topology. A novel distributed control strategy is proposed to reduce the frequency of con-
troller update and save network resources. Based on communication uncertainty of practical
networks, partial information exchange and switching topology which subjects to a heteroge-
neous Markov chain are considered in controller design. An H
∞
consensus criterion is derived
by using linear matrix inequality and Lyapunov methods. According to this consensus crite-
rion, a sufficient condition on designing H
∞
state-feedback controller is presented. Finally, a
simulation example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed event-based control
strategy.

1. Introduction
In recent years, consensus problem of multi-agent systems has been widely studied due to its broad applications in multi-
vehicle formation control, wireless sensor networks [5,22] and so on. There are several literatures [4,9–11,13,14,18,24] that have
focused on consensus problem. Nowadays, two dominant methods, continuous control and periodic sampling control, have been
used to solve consensus problem. However, continuous control strategy needs continuous controller update, and in periodic sam-
pling control strategy, the actuation is more frequency than necessary. Therefore, many researchers have suggested that event-
triggered control [1,6,12,15,16,19,20,26,28,29] could be a promising technique to reduce controller’s update and computation cost
because control signals are kept constant until triggering condition is violated. Owing to the above advantages, event-triggered
control strategy has been firstly proposed in [2] that could be applied to solve consensus problem of first-order multi-agent
systems. Following this thought, an event-based control scheme presented in [23] has released the threshold of event triggering
condition to be state-independent. Thus continuous monitoring between neighbor agents could be avoided. Ref. [27] solves the
consensus problem of both first-order and second-order heterogeneous multi-agent systems with a distributed event-triggered
consensus protocol. In [33], two event-based control strategies under continuous and discrete communication among neighbor
agents are considered, by which the consensus of general linear multi-agent systems can be achieved. Different from [33],the
consensus problem of multi-agent systems is studied in [28] by using observer-based output feedback event-triggered control

strategy, where states of agents are unavailable and they have been observed by output signals. In [8], a novel distributed event-
triggered sampled-data transmission strategy is proposed to achieve consensus of multi-agent systems. By using this method,
the consensus of multi-agent systems can be transformed into the stability of a time-delay systems.
In aforementioned work, the communication topology of multi-agent systems is assumed to be fixed. However, in prac-
tice, it is difficult to avoid network uncertainty, such as the changes of system components. Thus, the research on consensus of
multi-agent systems with switching topology is of great practical significance, and it has been extensively studied in literatures
[3,17,21,25,30–32].In[21], consensus problem is studied for multi-agent systems where agents communicate via a stochastic
information network, and the communication topology is governed by a periodic switching graph. Both fixed and switching net-
work topologies are considered in [17], and average consensus of multi-agent systems can be achieved. The consensus problem
of first-order multi-agent systems is investigated in [32] with fixed and switching topologies, where the switching topologies
are described by a finite-time Markov chain. In [31], the mean square consentability problem is presented for second-order
multi-agent systems with Markov switching topology. The formation problem for Lipschitz nonlinear multi-agent systems with
random jumping process is considered in [25], where the random jumping process is modeled as a Markov chain. The sampled-
data leader-following consensus problem is studied in [3] for Lipschitz nonlinear systems, where random switching network
topologies are modeled by Markov process and communication delay is solved by proposed variable periodic sampling control
protocol. In most of the articles referenced above, the dynamics of the agents are limited to be first-order/second-order systems,
control strategies are restricted to be continuous control strategies and the Markov switching chain is assumed to be homoge-
neous. This motivates us to investigate the H
∞
consensus problem for general linear multi-agent systems with heterogeneous
Markov switching topology via event-driven controller.
The main contributions of this paper are summarized as follows:
1. A novel event-based control strategy has been proposed. By using the proposed control strategy, a global H
∞
consensus of
discrete-time multi-agent systems can be achieved. Moreover, computation cost and actuation update of agents can be reduced.
2. Considering the uncertainty of practical networks, a switching topology which subjects to heterogeneous Markov chain has
been presented to describe the communication among agents.
3. Partial information exchange has been considered among neighbor agents, which is more reasonable compared with full
information exchange in practical networks.

The communication topology can be described by a directed graph G = (V, E, A), where the set of nodes is V = {1, 2,...,N},
the set of edges is E ⊆ V × V. The set of neighbors of agent i is denoted by N

Remark 1. The information transmission between neighbor agents can be given by Eq. (2), which considers partial information
exchange among agents and the channel noise which is produced by signal transmission. If matrix E
ij
is unfilled rank, there is only
partial information of agent j’s state has been transmitted to agent j, otherwise, full information exchange between neighbors
will occur. Specially, if there is full information exchange and no channel noise, i.e., E
ij
is non-singular matrix and ϑ

(k) = 0, the
information transfer from agent j to agent i can be simplified as y
