Dynamic event-triggered control for nonlinear NCSs subject to DoS attacks

In this study, a dynamic event-triggered control problem is addressed for nonlinear networked control systems (NCSs) subject to denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Assume that data from the plant to the controller is transmitted via a wireless transmission channel under malicious DoS attacks characterized by frequency and duration properties. On the premise of ensuring the stability and minimum inter-event time (MIET) of the systems, dynamic event-triggered mechanisms (DETMs) are proposed for the hybrid dynamic system to withstand a certain degree of DoS attacks. Three event-triggered schemes are designed for the most existing state-based control systems which further enlarge the inter-event times, and the stabilization conditions of hybrid dynamic system are given. Finally, illustrative examples are provided to verify the effectiveness of the presented theoretical results.
