Abstract
Summary This paper investigates the observer‐based security control problem for interval type‐2 nonlinear networked control systems with deception attacks and replay attacks. Firstly, to alleviate the communication burden of the network, a novel adaptive event‐triggered communication (ETC) mechanism is proposed. Compared with existing observer‐based adaptive ETC security control techniques, the threshold of the proposed adaptive ETC scheme can be adjusted dynamically depending on the value of adjustable parameters and estimation error. In particular, the adjustable parameters can change the sensitivity of the threshold flexibly. Then, taking the influence of the adaptive ETC mechanism and cyber attacks into consideration, an observer‐based security controller is developed under the co‐designed method. Furthermore, by utilizing the Lyapunov stability theory, sufficient conditions for asymptotically mean‐square stable of the closed‐loop system are obtained. Ultimately, the feasibility of the designed control approach can be proved via a simulation example.
