Abstract

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the stabilization of networked control systems (NCSs) under multi-packet transmission and denial of service (DoS) attacks. To deal with node congestions and DoS attacks, a jump-like try-once-discard (TOD) protocol is first proposed to orchestrate the priority of normal nodes and the attacked nodes over the network. Compared with the existing TOD scheduling, the proposed scheduling scheme has the advantage of jumping out the attacked nodes by designing node weighting matrices. To reduce the effects of DoS attacks, an attack-model-independent impulsive closed-loop model is well established, which couples the effects of the proposed protocol and DoS attacks in a unified framework. Then, a sufficient attack-model-independent stabilization criterion is derived. Compared with the existing attack-model-dependent methods, the desired dynamic output feedback performance is well guaranteed under multi-channel time-varying DoS attacks. Finally, an illustrative example is used to verify the effectiveness of proposed method.
