Abstract
This paper aims to propose a unified control scheme to explore the problems of finite-/fixed-time (FTT/FXT) synchronisation in multi-weighted dynamical networks (MWDNs). Firstly, a new unified FTT/FXT stability results is assessed for nonlinear dynamical systems, wherein a more accurate approximation of the settling time is acquired. Secondly, a novel feedback controller is designed for a class of MWDNs and a unified sufficient condition is obtained for FTT/FXT synchronisation of the considered MWDNs. It is shown that the conversion of FTT/FXT synchronisation can be achieved by adjusting only one control parameter, indicating the superiority of the control protocol in practical applications. Moreover, the designed unified control scheme excludes signum function, which can avoid the chattering phenomena in the synchronisation process. Finally, a numerical example is presented to authenticate the theoretical results.
