Abstract In this paper, a distributed control problem is investigated for large-scale nonlinear systems under Round-Robin (RR) protocol and the energy constraint. The large-scale system is composed of several interconnected nonlinear subsystems that are equipped with independent sensors. RR protocol is adapted to coordinate the data transmission of each sensor from the viewpoint of fairness. Moreover, an energy scheduling scheme is employed in response to the energy constraint by distributing high energy or low energy to sensors. The transmissions (between sensors and controllers) with high energy can be accurate. Correspondingly, the accessed data may be lost with a certain probability when sensors use low energy. This paper aims to design the scheduling scheme and distributed controllers jointly such that the stochastic finite-time boundedness (FTB) can be guaranteed for large-scale nonlinear systems with limited energy and communication protocols over a finite horizon. In light of the energy allocations and the induced packet dropout, novel distributed controllers are established for largescale systems. Furthermore, the explicit expressions J. Li · G.

of the controller for each subsystem and the energy scheduling scheme with average dwell time (ADT) are derived by using recursive design methods combined with stochastic analysis. Finally, two simulation examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the designed scheme and controllers.

1 Introduction Over the past decades, there has been an increased interest in large-scale nonlinear systems due to their wide application in power systems, economic systems, transportation networks, and so on [1]. A large-scale system is composed of some interconnected subsystems. Therefore, it is often required to design a distributed or decentralized controller/filter for each subsystem depending on local measurements. In recent years, several methods and techniques have been developed rapidly for this kind of systems, for example decentralized control [2–4], distributed predictive control [5], decentralized fuzzy filter [6], distributed Kalman filter [7], distributed particle filters [8], and so on. Due to the characteristic of structural complexity and spatial distribution, the distributed methods can enhance the subsystem perf
