Sliding mode control for T‐S fuzzy systems under WTOD protocol and injection attacks

Abstract This article deals with the security sliding mode control (SMC) issue for T‐S fuzzy systems under random injection attacks. As a way to increase the communication efficiency of network control systems, the weighted try‐once‐discard (WTOD) protocol is utilized to decide whether the sensor nodes transmit or not. A compensating strategy is introduced in this controller side, based on which a fuzzy sliding mode controller depending on the scheduling signal is constructed. Then, the reachability of the given sliding surface together with the stochastic stability of the closed‐loop system are analyzed by incorporating the membership function, and the relaxed stability conditions are derived. Moreover, a GA‐based solving algorithm is proposed to search an optimized sliding matrix and improve the SMC performance. Finally, numerical simulation results are provided to verify the proposed SMC strategy.
