Methods and systems for information exchange of a vehicle in a networked multiagent system are disclosed. The methods and systems include: receiving a last neighbor dataset broadcasted by a neighbor vehicle; determining a current dataset based on the last neighbor dataset and a last vehicle dataset of the first vehicle; identifying a violation of an event-triggering condition by comparing a difference between the last vehicle dataset and the current dataset with a dynamic threshold; determining a transmission dataset being associated with the current dataset; and in response to the violation, broadcasting the transmission dataset to the neighbor vehicle. The dynamic threshold is defined by an exponentially decaying term and an error between a vehicle state of the first vehicle and a reference state. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.
