This study presents distributed event‐based control strategies for a networked dynamical system consisting of N linear time‐invariant interconnected subsystems. Each subsystem broadcasts its state over the network according to certain triggering rules that only depend on local information. The system can converge asymptotically to the equilibrium point under the proposed control design, and the existence of a lower bound for the broadcasting period is guaranteed. A novel model‐based approach is derived to reduce the communication between the agents. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed approaches and illustrate the theoretical results.
