Abstract
This article investigates the problem of event‐triggered integral sliding mode control (ISMC) for a class of nonlinear networked cascade control systems (NCCSs). Due to the limited communication bandwidth between network nodes, uncertain delay can occur during transmission. This may result in a deterioration of the capabilities of NCCS and system instability in certain instances. Thus, an event‐triggered mechanism (ETM) and ISMC are introduced into the system, and a new model is constructed to increase the network bandwidth and reduce the effect of nonlinear perturbation. After that, the design of two controllers and ETM is accomplished through the use of the Lyapunov generalized method and linear matrix inequality (LMI) techniques. Finally, a simulation example of a power plant model is given to verify the effectiveness of the method. The results show that, for the first time, the event‐triggered ISMC is applied to NCCSs, which greatly saves the network bandwidth resources. The states of the system can reach the sliding mode surface (SMS) in finite time and remain stabilized there afterward, which ensures the stable operation of the system.
