Abstract

This paper investigates H exponential synchronization (ES) of neural networks (NNs) with delay by designing an event-triggered dynamic output feedback controller (ETDOFC). The ETDOFC is flexible in practice since it is applicable to both full order and reduced order dynamic output techniques. Moreover, the event generator reduces the computational burden for the zero-order-hold (ZOH) operator and does not induce sampling delay as many existing event generators do. To obtain less conservative results, the delay-partitioning method is utilized in the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF). Synchronization criteria formulated by linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are established. A simple algorithm is provided to design the control gains of the ETDOFC, which overcomes the difficulty induced by different dimensions of the system parameters. One numerical example is provided to demonstrate the merits of the theoretical analysis.
