Abstract:
Recently, security issues are of great importance in Cyber-Physical Systems. Various efforts have been devoted to study the influence of specific malicious attacks, e.g., Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks, replay attacks and data injection attacks, on particular systems. Thereinto, DoS attack, which aims to prevent the communication between system components by jamming the communication channel, has been widely studied since this attack pattern is the most accomplishable and can result in serious consequences. This talk will introduce some latest works on how to evaluate the impact of a power-limited DoS attack on remote state estimation.
