Abstract
This article considers a cyber-physical system with multiple remote state estimation subsystems under denial-of-service (DoS) attack. Suppose that there are multiple distributed estimation systems, in each of which, a sensor monitors the system and sends its local estimation to a remote estimator over one of multiple wireless channels. A DoS attacker emits noise power to jam the wireless channels. A scheduler is installed to dispatch each sensor to transmit information through the specific channel to minimize the total estimation error covariance on account of energy-saving. Whereas, the DoS attacker attempts to jam a channel to realize an opposite objective. With considering interference from other individuals, a multisensor multichannel remote state estimation model is constructed. A myopic policy and a long-term online interaction strategy under varying network environment are investigated and compared by solving a two-player zero-sum game and a Markov game, respectively. Simulations are provided to demonstrate our results.
