This study investigates aperiodic sampled‐data synchronisation of complex dynamical network (CDN) incorporate dynamics of actuators saturation. The sampling intervals considered here are time‐varying which allowed to be variable within the lower and upper bounds. In order to fully captures the sawtooth structure characteristic of the sampled‐data systems, a novel time‐dependent continuous Lyapunov functional is employed to obtain less conservative criteria. Furthermore, the generalised sector bound condition is utilised for the estimate about the basin of the attraction. Based on the local stability condition, the sampled‐data controller is constructed to guarantee the synchronisation of CDN in the presence of actuators saturation. The obtained sufficient conditions can be cast in two optimisation cases to maximise the admissible upper bound of sampling instants or enlarge estimate about the domain of attraction for the closed‐loop systems. Subsequently, the validity and applicability of the criteria are verified through numerical examples.
