Event‐triggered tracking control for networked control systems under diversified attacks

Abstract

This paper mainly concerns on the tracking control problem for event‐triggered networked control systems (NCSs) with diversified cyber‐attacks. An event‐triggered mechanism (ETM) is exploited to decrease the amount of redundant transmissions, thus saving communication resources. In addition, a novel tracking error model for NCSs is built with consideration of ETM and diversified cyber‐attacks, which involves deception attacks and Denial‐of‐Service (DoS) attacks. On the basis of Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), the stability criterion of the tracking error system is constructed, and the controller is designed to ensure the tracking performance of the system. In the end, simulation examples are provided to testify the validity of the proposed method.
