contents The paper proposes an intermittent communication mechanism for the tracking consensus of high-order nonlinear multi-agent systems (MASs) surrounded by random disturbances. Each collaborating agent is described by a class of high-order nonlinear uncertain strict-feedback dynamics which is disturbed by a wide stationary process representing the external noise. The resiliency level of this networked control system (NCS) to the failures of physical devices or unreliability of communication channels is analyzed by introducing a linear auxiliary trajectory of the system. More precisely, the unreliability of communication channels sometimes makes an agent incapable of sensing the local information or receiving it from neighboring nodes. Therefore, an intermittent communication scheme is proposed among the follower agents as a consequence of employing the linear auxiliary dynamics. The closed-loop networked system signals are proved to be noise-to-state practically stable in probability (NSpS-P). It has been justified that each agent follows the trajectory of the corresponding local auxiliary virtual system practically in probability. The simulation experiments finally quantify the effectiveness of our proposed approach in terms of providing a resilient performance against unreliability of communication channels and reaching the tracking consensus.
