This article presents a self-triggered bipartite fault-tolerant consensus control scheme in a fixed-time stability sense for multiagent systems (MASs) with function constraints on states. Neural networks are introduced to identify unknown nonlinearities, thereby relaxing constraints on unknown functions. Then, based on time-varying barrier Lyapunov functions including time and previous states, all states of the considered MASs are constrained to given ranges. In addition, to improve the utilization of system transmission resources, a self-triggered control method in which the next triggering time can be computed according to the current information of the controller is proposed. By applying the Lyapunov theory, the designed self-triggered controller can ensure that all signals containing consensus tracking errors are fixed-time bounded under a given communication topology, and the Zeno phenomenon is successfully …
