Abstract

This paper is concerned with an event-triggered filter design for fuzzy-model-based cyber-physical systems with cyber-attacks. Spurious events may be triggered under the conventional event-triggered mechanism (ETM) when the sampling data has a rapid change arising from unpredicted external disturbance. To avoid spurious decisions on data releasing a new ETM is proposed. Furthermore, the communication network is vulnerable to attacks by malicious attackers. Under this scenario, a new resilient filter is designed to ensure the security. Sufficient conditions are established to make the filtering error system asymptotically stable. A numerical example is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed results.
