摘要

This article is concerned with the problem of stabilizing continuous-time linear time-invariant (LTI) systems subject to quantization and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. In this context, two DoS-induced challenges emerge in the design of resilient encoding schemes, namely, the coupling between encoding strategies of different signals, and the synchronization between the encoder and decoder. These challenges are addressed by a novel proposed structure based on a deadbeat controller as well as a delicate transmission protocol for the input and output channels, and codesigned leveraging the controllability index. When both input and output channels are subject to DoS attacks and quantization, the proposed structure is shown able to decouple the encoding schemes for input, output, and estimated output signals. This property is further corroborated by designing encoding schemes as well as conditions ensuring exponential stability of the closed-loop system. On the other hand, when only the output channel is subject to network attack phenomena, the proposed structure can achieve exponential stabilization without acknowledgment (ACK) signals, in contrast to existing ACK-based results. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the practical merits of the proposed theoretical and practical approach.
