We deal with event-triggered H∞ controller design for discrete-time piecewise-affine systems subject to actuator saturation. By considering saturation information, a novel event-triggered strategy is proposed to conserve communication resources. A linear matrix inequality based condition is derived based on a piecewise Lyapunov function. This condition guarantees the stability of the closed-loop system with a certain H∞ performance index and reduces the number of transmitted signals. Numerical examples are given to show the efficiency of our method.
