Event-triggered output feedback dissipative control of nonlinear systems under DoS attacks and actuator saturation

This paper presents a novel event-triggered dynamic output feedback dissipative control of nonlinear systems under intermittent denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and actuator saturation. Firstly, based on attack information, a secure event-triggered mechanism (ETM) is introduced, which not only saves systems resources but also is Zeno-free and resilient to DoS attacks. Secondly, a switched T–S fuzzy closed-loop system model is built, which unifies the parameters of nonlinear plant, noises, ETM, DoS attacks, switched output feedback fuzzy controller, and actuator saturation all in one framework. Thirdly, low conservative exponential stability criteria are derived while guaranteeing strict (G, H, I)-dissipativity, and hence the relationships between system performance and factors such as DoS attacks, secure ETM, noises and actuator saturation are established. Further, sufficient conditions are given for the co-design of the switched output-based fuzzy controller and the secure ETM. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed by numerical examples, achieving over 92% system resources.
