Event-Based Output Quantized Synchronization Control for Multiple Delayed Neural Networks

This article concentrates on the global exponential synchronization problem of multiple neural networks with time delay by the event-based output quantized coupling control method. In order to reduce the signal transmission cost and avoid the difficulty of obtaining the systems' full states, this article adopts the event-triggered control and output quantized control. A new dynamic event-triggered mechanism is designed, in which the control parameters are time-varying functions. Under weakened coupling matrix conditions, by using a Halanay-type inequality, some simple and easily verified sufficient conditions to ensure the exponential synchronization of multiple neural networks are presented. Moreover, the Zeno behaviors of the system are excluded. Some numerical examples are given to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis in this article.
