<abstract><p>This paper investigates the event-triggered state estimation problem for a class of complex networks (CNs) suffered by hybrid cyber-attacks. It is assumed that a wireless network exists between sensors and remote estimators, and that data packets may be modified or blocked by malicious attackers. Adaptive event-triggered scheme (AETS) is introduced to alleviate the network congestion problem. With the help of two sets of Bernoulli distribution variables (BDVs) and an arbitrary function related to the system state, a mathematical model of the hybrid cyber-attacks is developed to portray randomly occurring denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and deception attacks. CNs, AETS, hybrid cyber-attacks, and state estimators are then incorporated into a unified architecture. The system state is cascaded with state errors as an augmented system. Furthermore, based on Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), sufficient conditions to ensure the asymptotic stability of the augmented system are derived, and the corresponding state estimator is designed. Finally, the effectiveness of the theoretical method is demonstrated by numerical examples and simulations.</p></abstract>

This paper investigates the event-triggered H∞ control for networked control systems under the denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. First, a novel system model is established considering random, time-constraint DoS attacks. Second, an event-triggered scheme including an off-time is proposed to reduce the unnecessary occupation of network resources, with which a prescribed minimum inter-triggering time is guaranteed and Zeno problem is avoided. Third, sufficient conditions for the existence of an event-triggered controller which ensures the exponential stability of the closed-loop system with desired H∞ performance are formulated in linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is examined by two illustrative examples, where a real communication network based on the ZigBee protocol is utilized.

This article studies the problem of nonfragile integral-based event-triggered control for uncertain cyber-physical systems under cyber-attacks. An integral-based event-triggered scheme is proposed to reduce the data transmissions and save the limited network resources. The triggering condition is related to the mean of system state over a finite time interval instead of instant system state. Random cyber-attacks in a communication channel are taken into account and described by a stochastic variable subject to Bernoulli distribution. A novel Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional based on Legendre polynomials is constructed, and the Bessel–Legendre inequality technique is employed to handle the integral term induced by the integral-based event-triggered scheme. Resorting to these treatments, sufficient conditions are established via a set of linear matrix inequalities to guarantee the asymptotic mean-square stability of the closed-loop system. Finally, a numerical example shows that the presented method is effective.

This paper is concerned with resilient triggered control problem for load frequency control and virtual synchronous generation (LFC-VSG) scheme of discrete-time multi-area power system with parameter uncertainty, governor dead band (GDB), and low inertia under time delay and aperiodic Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks. To reduce communication load of sleep intervals, event triggered mechanism (ETM) is introduced. A discrete-time switched delay system model is established to describe the dynamic of multi-area power system under resilient static output feedback control law. Combining piecewise Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional (LKF) method with switched system theory, a criterion is derived that the tolerant bound of attack duration and attack frequency can be estimated explicitly. Meanwhile, some sufficient conditions are obtained which can preserve weighted H ∞ performance. By using linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) techniques, a co-design method is proposed to solve the control gains and trigger parameters. A simulation example of a two-area power system was carried out to verify the efficiency of our proposed resilient event based LFC-VSG scheme.

Abstract This work focuses on the consensus problem of multi-agent systems (MASs) under event-triggered control (ETC) subject to denial-of-service (DoS) jamming attacks. To reduce the cost of communication networks, a novel event-triggering mechanism (ETM) is applied to the sleeping interval to determine whether the sampled signal should be transmitted or not. Unlike periodic DoS attacks model, the DoS attacks occurrence are irregular, where attack attributes such as attack frequency and attack duration are taken into account. Moreover, compared with the fixed topological graph, the communication topologies may change due to DoS jamming attacks in this work. In view of this, based on the piecewise Lyapunov functional, sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee that consensus problem of the MASs can be solved. Finally, the effectiveness and correctness of the theoretical results are verified by a numerical example.

This paper addresses the asymptotic synchronization problem for a kind of drive-response complex networks (DRCNs) under cyber-attacks by using network control systems (NCSs). In order to reduce the pressure of communication and save the communication bandwidth on NCSs, some sampled-data-based event-triggered synchronization feedback controllers and logarithmic quantizers are designed by taking into account the effect of the NCSs’ transmission delays. Using Lyapunov stability theories, several sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the existence of sampleddata- based event-triggered synchronization controllers for the DRCNs with distributed-delay. Then, the state feedback gains are obtained by solving certain linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the sampled-data-based eventtriggered control scheme.

This paper investigates the event-triggered consensus problem of second-order nonlinear multi-agent systems subject to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, which make the communication network unable to provide normal services. Considering a general class of DoS attack with limited duration, a novel distributed event-triggered consensus protocol accompanied with first-order hold is adopted to guarantee the globally bounded consensus convergence under directed network topology. Based on the linear matrix inequality approach and Lyapunov stability method, consensus converging properties are analysed and sufficient criteria are obtained. Furthermore, Zeno-free triggering of our proposed protocol is demonstrated. Finally, a numerical simulation is given to show the effectiveness of our theoretical results.

This paper proposes the [Formula: see text]-matrix method to achieve state estimation in Markov switched neural networks with Lévy noise, and the method is very distinct from the linear matrix inequality technique. Meanwhile, in light of the Lyapunov stability theory, some sufficient conditions of the exponential stability are derived for delayed neural networks, and the adaptive update law is obtained. An example verifies the condition of state estimation and confirms the effectiveness of results.

This paper considers the problem of guaranteed cost and finite-time event-triggered control of fractional-order switched systems. Firstly, an event-triggered scheme including both the information of current state and an exponential decay function is proposed, and a novel cost function that adopts the characteristics of fractional-order integration is presented. Secondly, some sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee that the corresponding closed-loop system is finite-time stable with a certain cost upper bound, using multiple Lyapunov functions and average dwell time approach. Meanwhile, the event-triggered parameters and state feedback gains are simultaneously obtained via solving linear matrix inequalities. Moreover, Zeno behavior does not exist by finding a positive lower bound of the triggered interval. Finally, an example about fractional-order switched electrical circuit is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper is concerned with interval state estimation for a class of Linear Parameter-Varying systems with parametric uncertainties. Firstly, sufficient conditions to guarantee both the cooperativity and stability of observation error dynamics are presented in terms of parameterized matrix inequality formulations. Secondly, a novel method for scheduled controller law design is proposed in the framework of interval observer design. Under the assumptions that scheduled parameters have a polytopic structure property, the problems of the existence conditions of observers and scheduled controller design are transformed into finite linear matrix inequalities ones, which can be solved by convex optimization algorithms. The validity of the proposed state estimation methods is illustrated through a simple example.

The shift to Cloud computing has brought with it its specific security challenges concerning the loss of control, trust and multi-tenancy especially in Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) Cloud model. This article focuses on the design and development of an intrusion detection system (IDS) that can handle security challenges in IaaS Cloud model using an open source IDS. We have implemented a proof-of-concept prototype on the most deployed hypervisor—VMware ESXi—and performed various real-world cyber-attacks, such as port scanning and denial of service (DoS) attacks to validate the practicality and effectiveness of our proposed IDS architecture. Based on our experimental results we found that our Security Onion-based IDS can provide the required protection in a reasonable and effective manner.
