Attack-Resilient Event-Triggered Fuzzy Interval Type-2 Filter Design for Networked Nonlinear Systems Under Sporadic Denial-of-Service Jamming Attacks

This article is concerned with attack-resilient event-triggered$H_{\infty }$filtering for a class of networked nonlinear systems described by an interval type-2 (IT2) fuzzy model. Suppose that data transmission from the plant to the filter is completed through a wireless sensor network subject to denial-of-service attacks (DoS). In order to save the limited network bandwidth and resist the effects of DoS attacks, a resilient event-triggered communication scheme is devised. Then, an attack-resilient IT2 filter model is introduced to estimate system states of the nonlinear plant. Based on a piecewise Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure that the filtering error system is exponentially stable and satisfies a certain$H_{\infty }$performance level. Moreover, explicit expressions for the attack-resilient filter gain parameters and event-triggering parameters can be derived if a set of linear matrix inequalities are feasible. Finally, a practical example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed theoretical results.
