ABSTRACT This paper is concerned with event-triggered autonomous platoon control with probabilistic sensor and actuator failures. A new platoon model is established, in which the effect of event-triggered scheme and probabilistic failures are involved. Based on the model, the criteria for the exponential stability and co-designing both the trigger parameters and the output feedback are derived by using the Lyapunov method. The theoretical results show that the proposed controller would be able to safely maintain a smaller inter-vehicle spacing and the platoon would be string stable. The effectiveness and advantage of the presented methodology are demonstrated by numerical simulations.
