Dissipativity-based control for networked control systems under bilateral Round-Robin protocols and denial-of-service attacks

A dissipativity-based control strategy adopting bilateral Round-Robin (RR) protocols for networked control systems (NCSs) suffering from denial-of-service (DoS) attacks is investigated in this work. To save limited network resources in multi-packet transmission scenarios, RR protocols are adopted for coordinating the node access on bilateral (i.e., sensor-to-controller and controller-to-actuator) channels. Subsequently, the NCSs integrating considerations of bilateral RR protocols and DoS attacks are further described as the switched time-delay model. The sufficient stability condition and controller design criterion are derived by using Lyapunov theory to ensure the closed-loop exponential mean-square stability and (Q,S,R) dissipative performance under fragile network environment. Furthermore, to maximize the tolerable system delay and reduce the conservativeness of proposed results effectively, an optimization algorithm is also proposed. Finally, the superiority and feasibility of the proposed methods are verified through two practical examples.
