A unified game approach under DoS attacks

Abstract

We consider the problem of resilient control of networked control systems (NCSs) under denial-of-service (DoS) attacks via a unified game approach. The DoS attacks lead to extra constraints in the NCS, where the packets may be jammed by a malicious adversary. Considering the attack-induced packet dropout, optimal control strategies with multitasking and central-tasking structures are developed using game theory in the delta domain. Based on the optimal control structures, we propose optimality criteria and algorithms for both cyber defenders and DoS attackers. Simulations and experimental results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design procedure.
