This paper studies a secure iterative interval estimation approach for cyber-physical systems subject to stealthy deception attacks. Under the hypothesis that the system is accessed by a stealthy attack, an iteration scheme integrating the T-N-L observer framework is employed to reconstruct the system state. With the help of a structure separation method, a sufficient condition in terms of linear matrix inequality is provided to obtain convergent observation errors under deception attacks. Resorting to the reachability analysis, a secure state interval is built by means of the analyzed attack bounds and the observation error interval. Simulation studies verify the effectiveness of the proposed method for attack and attack-free cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
