Static Output Feedback Predictive Control for Cyber-Physical System under Denial of Service Attacks

Abstract

This paper addresses the static output feedback predictive (SOFP) control problem with cyber-physical system (CPS) subject to Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks. The effects of DoS attacks are reasonably assumed to the bounded consecutive packet dropouts by considering the energy constraints ofan attacker. Then, a novel predictive control sequence, in which only the latest successfully received output is employed, is designed to compensate such packet dropouts caused by DoS attacks. Furthermore, the stability criterion and predictive control design are carefully derived by using the switching Lyapunov functional approach and linear matrix inequality. Compared with the previous works, the proposed predictive control strategy can compensate arbitrary packet dropouts under DoS attacks while only the latest successfully received output is available. At last, a simulation example illustrates the effectiveness of the SOFP control strategy.
