Abstract: This article presents an event‐triggered distributed model predictive control (DMPC) framework for discrete‐time linear systems subject to additive bounded disturbances and dynamic couplings. Each subsystem uses a nominal model to formulate a local optimal control problem and employs an error‐based triggering condition that accounts for both its own state prediction error and asynchronously received neighbor predictions. To mitigate additive disturbances, we employ a dual‐mode strategy that applies the MPC law outside the terminal set and switches to a fixed linear feedback law within it to maintain invariance. Explicit conditions that ensure recursive feasibility, closed‐loop stability, and convergence to a disturbance‐invariant set are rigorously derived. Two illustrative case studies demonstrate that the proposed method markedly reduces triggering frequency while preserving control performance under asynchronous information exchange.
