Abstract

Abstract: In this paper, the robust security control problem is investigated for networked control systems with hybrid cyber attacks and medium access constraints. Firstly, considering the pattern characteristics of hybrid cyber attacks and the stochastic communication mechanism of sensor access constraints, the networked systems are modeled as Markov jump systems with multiple modes. Secondly, sufficient conditions for the stochastic stability of the closed-loop systems are derived by utilizing Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) techniques, and the robust security control strategy with the prescribed H_∞ performance is developed. Finally, an illustrative example is given to demonstrate the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed control method.

Key words: networked control systems, hybrid cyber attacks, medium access constraints, H_∞ robust control
