A Control Oriented Cyber-Secure Strategy Based on Multiple Sensor Fusion (original) (raw)

2019, SMC Conference 2019

This paper introduces a cyber-secure strategy for radar tracking systems. Two common cyber attacks including denial-of-service (DoS) and false data injection (deception) attacks are investigated. The proposed secure control strategy consists of two subsystems: 1) an attack detection and isolation (ADI) subsystem, and 2) a resilient observer (RO) subsystem. The ADI subsystem is used to observe the state of the system using a bank of Kalman Filters and multi-sensor measurements. Then, residuals generated by local Kalman filters are used to isolate the cyber attacks. Afterward, ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator is utilized to drive a resilient observer to estimate the real correct value of variables such as position under cyber attacks. Weighting factors of the OWA operator are derived using the covariance matrix, and proof of convergence is provided. Simulation studies on a radar tracking system show that the proposed secure control strategy using multi-sensor fusion enhances the performance of the system and results in a more resilient control system against cyber attacks.
