Event-triggered [formula omitted] stabilization of networked cascade control systems under periodic DoS attack: A switching approach

Abstract

This paper deals with the H∞ control design for the networked cascade control systems (NCCSs) subject to periodic denial-of-service (DoS) attack. The controller structure is based on the state-feedback controller for the both control loops. The communication network of the primary loop is equipped with an event-triggered mechanism while the network is under periodic DoS attack. For stability analysis and controller design, the mathematical model of the closed-loop system is formulated based on the switching systems approach. By using the piecewise Lyapunov-functional-based approach and average dwell time techniques, some stability and stabilization criteria are derived and presented in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, an steam temperature cascade control system is utilized as a practical example to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
