Abstract
This letter focuses on fully distributed secure tracking control for leader-following nonlinear multiagent systems subject to multi-link sequence scaling attacks. Firstly, an edge-based adaptive secure tracking control scheme is proposed for followers to counteract the effects of multi-link sequence scaling attacks and can be implemented in a fully distributed fashion. Then, by utilizing the Lipschitz condition and the properties of the Laplacian potential, sufficient conditions for nonlinear multiagent systems with multi-link sequence scaling attacks to achieve secure tracking control are given, where the attack duration that the system can render is presented. Finally, a numerical simulation example is provided to illustrate the theoretical results.
