Non‐fragile observer‐based security control for networked systems via event‐triggered WTOD protocol

Abstract This paper investigates the security control issue for fuzzy networked systems with uncertainty under false data injection (FDI) and aperiodic denial‐of‐service (ADoS) attacks via sliding mode approach. To mitigate the communication burden, a novel mechanism compromising the advantages of the adaptive event‐triggered (AET) scheme and weighted try‐once‐discard (WTOD) protocol is proposed. In particular, the triggered threshold with real‐time characteristics varies with the measurement outputs. To be specific, the shared insecure communication network can be subjected to hybrid attacks including the stochastic FDI attacks and ADoS attacks limited by duration and frequency. Moreover, the token‐dependent fuzzy non‐fragile observer (NFO) with norm‐bounded uncertainty and corresponding fuzzy control law are constructed by virtue of the Zero‐Order‐Hold (ZOH) strategy. Then, several sufficient criteria that guarantee the exponential stability of the system and the reachability of the specified sliding surface are given. Eventually, a numerical example is presented to verify the applicability of the proposed security control strategy.
