Resilient Adaptive Intermittent Control of Nonlinear Systems under Deception Attacks

In this article, the resilient adaptive intermittent output feedback control is investigated for a class of uncertain strict-feedback nonlinear systems under unknown sensor deception attack. The underlying problem is rather challenging not only because the system contains mismatched uncertainties, the output information is corrupted by an additional attack signal, and only the intermittent false output is available for control design, but also because the virtual control terms are nondifferentiable due to the utilization of event triggering. To circumvent these obstacles, we construct a new fuzzy state estimator via intermittent false output and fuzzy-logic systems (FLSs), which, in conjunction with a new set of error surfaces employing the false and estimated state information, allows a novel observer-based resilient adaptive intermittent control strategy to be developed. The results of the proposed resilient adaptive output event-triggered control shown that the stabilization errors converge to a vicinity of the origin, and all the signals of the overall system remain bounded. Numerical simulations confirm the efficiency of the proposed methodology.
