Secure Decentralized Event-Triggered Load Frequency Control Design for Multiarea Power Systems Under Multiple DoS Attacks
Kun Xu, Yugang Niu, James Lam
Abstract
This article deals with the load frequency control problem of multiarea power systems subject to multiple intermittent denial-of-service (DoS) attacks that can interrupt the data transmission of each area independently. A decentralized event-triggering (ET) scheme under periodic sampling is proposed to reduce the transmission burden. Then, a decentralized ET-based controller is designed by tuning several parameters. Such control scheme can reduce the computational complexity while achieving privacy preserving. Moreover, sufficient conditions are derived for ensuring the input-to-state stability of multiarea power systems and an optimization solution method via particle swarm algorithm is provided. Finally, a three-area power system is employed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
