Bounded synchronization of switched dynamical networks with non-identical nodes

This paper investigates the synchronization problem of a complex dynamical network with non-identical nodes and switching topology. Neither an equilibrium for each node nor a synchronization manifold is assumed to exist. We select average state trajectory as the target of synchronization and establish the error dynamical equations. Using single Lyapunov function method and the bounded synchronization theory, the switching law design method presented which guarantee the bounded synchronization of switched dynamical networks with non-identical nodes. Simulation results verify the validity of the results.
