Summary This article aims to solve leaderless and leader‐following consensus problems for general linear systems by integral‐type event‐triggered control method. Different from the existing integral‐type event‐triggered controllers for multiagent systems (MASs), a modified distributed integral‐type event‐triggered scheme is designed via defining a measurement error without continuous communication. Then, distributed event‐triggered protocols are proposed for MASs to achieve the leaderless and leader‐following consensus. Moreover, for the case that all the agents' states are not available, distributed observers are given to estimate the full states. Meanwhile, leaderless and leader‐following consensus problems are investigated based on the observer‐based event‐triggered schemes. In addition, no agent will exhibit Zeno behavior. Finally, simulations are given to verify the effectiveness of our results.
