Abstract
This article investigates the load frequency control (LFC) problem for smart grids with denial-of-service (DoS) attacks via a novel event-triggered control method. In order to sustain the stable operation of the smart grids, a handshake logic-based event-triggered communication scheme is proposed. The targets of the designed controller are twofold. First, an event-triggered mechanism with a handshake logic-based concept is proposed to save network resources. In this triggering method, a handshake protocol is used to detect DoS attacks in the communication networks. Second, by employing Lyapunov stability theory, sufficient stabilization criteria ensuring the uncertain LFC systems being asymptotically stable are deduced. Based on these conditions, the corresponding state-feedback controller design method is given. Finally, a simulation of a two-area power system with electric vehicles is given as an example to substantiate the proposed method of this article.
