Abstract
Summary This research is concerned with the problem of pinning based output synchronization control for a complex networks with random saturation vulnerable to hybrid cyber‐attacks via an adaptive event‐triggered scheme (AETS). The output synchronization error systems are subject to suffer from deception attacks, replay attacks, and denial‐of‐service attacks. A novel hybrid cyber‐attack model is first constructed to integrate the three kinds of attacks into a synchronization of complex network. AETSs based on output synchronization errors with the consideration of hybrid cyber‐attacks, have been proposed to reduce the burden of communication. A pinning control strategy is used to decrease the control signal's input. By constructing a Lyapunov functional and using the linear matrix inequality technique, sufficient conditions are provided to ensure the output synchronization error system. Finally, a numerical simulation results are developed to illustrate the efficacy of the proposed theoretical methodology.
