This talk introduces a distributed observer for linear time-invariant systems, incorporating time-triggered periodic observations and event-triggered communication to estimate the state of the leader. We demonstrate the critical role of the sampling period in achieving desirable observers and establish a necessary and sufficient condition for all feasible sampling periods that ensure convergent error dynamics. We also characterize intricate relationships among sampling periods, system topologies, and matrices.

We design an event-triggering mechanism based on locally sampled data to regulate communication among agents. Convergence of estimation errors is proven under this mechanism for a class of positive and convergent triggering functions, which includes the commonly used exponential function as a special case. The proposed mixed time- and event-triggered architecture naturally avoids Zeno behavior by updating the system at discrete instants.

Furthermore, we analytically characterize the relationship among sampling, event triggering, and inter-event behavior when the triggering function is bounded by exponential functions. Finally, we provide several examples to illustrate the effectiveness and merits of the theoretical results.
