This article proposes a memory-based eventtriggering H ∞ load frequency control (LFC) method for power systems through a bandwidth-constrained open network. To overcome the bandwidth constraint, a memory-based event-triggered scheme (METS) is first proposed to reduce the number of transmitted packets. Compared with the existing memoryless event-triggered schemes, the proposed METS has the advantage to utilize series of the latest released signals. To deal with the random deception attacks induced by open networks, a networked power system model is well established, which couples the effects of METS and random deception attacks in a unified framework. Then, a sufficient stabilization criterion is derived to obtain the memory H ∞ LFC controller gains and event-triggered parameters simultaneously. Compared with existing memoryless LFC, the control performance is greatly improved since the latest released dynamic information is well utilized. Finally, an illustrative example is used to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper is mainly concerned with quantized stabilization for Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems with hybrid-triggered mechanism and stochastic cyber-attacks. A hybrid-triggered scheme which is described by Bernoulli variable is adopted to mitigate the burden of the network. By taking the effect of hybrid-triggered scheme and stochastic cyber-attacks into consideration, a mathematical model for closed-loop control system with quantization is constructed. Theorems for main results are developed to guarantee the asymptotical stability of networked control systems by using Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) techniques. Based on the derived sufficient conditions in theorems, the controller gains are presented in an explicit form. Finally, two practical examples demonstrate the feasibility of designed algorithm.

This article is concerned with the problem of observer-based dynamic event-triggered control for a networked control system (NCS) under a class of power-constrained denial-of-service (DoS) attacks that aim at impeding the network communication from time to time. First, by carefully modeling such DoS attacks as aperiodic pulse-width-modulated (PWM) jamming signals, a switching observer, adapting to the DoS attacks, is delicately constructed to deal with the unavailability of full-state information. Second, to economize the limited bandwidth resources, a dynamic event-triggered communication scheme is designed under the aperiodic DoS jamming attacks, whose duration and frequency are assumed to be restricted. Third, a switching system model with artificial state delay is formulated, which characterizes the effects of the aperiodic DoS attacks and event-triggered communication scheme in a unified framework. Then, the asymptotic stability analysis and controller/observer synthesis conditions of the resulting switching system are obtained by using a piecewise Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach. Furthermore, a co-design method of the dynamic triggering parameters, controller, and observer gains is presented. Finally, an example is employed to verify the effectiveness of the obtained results.

This article is concerned with the problem of the $H_{\infty }$ output feedback control for a class of event-triggered networked systems subject to multiple cyber attacks. Two dynamic event-triggered generators are equipped at sensor and observer sides, respectively, to lower the frequency of unnecessary data transmission. The sensor-to-observer (STO) channel and observer-to-controller (OTC) channel are subject to deception attacks and Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks, respectively. The aim of the addressed problem is to design an output feedback controller, with the consideration of the effects of dynamic event-triggered schemes (DETSs) and multiple cyber attacks. Sufficient condition is derived, which can guarantee that the resulted closed-loop system is asymptotically mean-square stable (AMSS) with a prescribed $H_{\infty }$ performance. Moreover, we provide the desired output feedback controller design method. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by an example.
