Abstract
This article studies the secure leader-follower consensus of nonlinear multiagent systems under multimode Denial-of-Service attacks. According to the topology characteristics after attacks, three kinds of different attack modes are introduced. Moreover, the common zero-topology attack is encompassed within the multimode attacks considered in this article. Due to the difficulty of directly obtaining the state of the system in some circumstances, a state observer is designed utilizing localized output information of the MASs to estimate the state. By applying suitable observer-based controller and Lyapunov method, some sufficient conditions are presented to ensure the observer-based secure consensus of the MASs under multimode DoS attacks. Furthermore, the obtained results can be extended to linear MASs under DoS attacks. Finally, two practical examples on power system are provided to demonstrate the validity of the derived theoretical results.
