Dual-Event-Triggered Intelligence Security Control for Multiagent Systems Against DoS Attacks With Applications in Mobile Robot Systems

The intelligence security control problem of multiagent systems in the presence of actuator faults is investigated against denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Noticing that the DoS attacks usually make the actuator signal not available for distributed control protocols, a novel intelligence dual-event-triggered control strategy is developed to eliminate the impact of DoS attacks. This control strategy includes two related event triggers, respectively, set on different channels, in which the second event-triggered condition is related to the triggering sequence of the previous event. Through the coordination between two nested event triggers set on different channels, the controller is avoided by being affected by wrong signals caused by DoS attacks. The developed distributed control protocol can not only guarantee the realization of the tracking control task, but also ensure that no "Zeno behavior" occurs in the process of the event triggering. Moreover, the obtained results are applied to the mobile robot systems. Finally, a numerical simulation example and a mobile robot system application are given to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
