Adaptive cyber-tolerant finite-time frequency control framework for renewable-integrated power system under deception and periodic denial-of-service attacks

This work concentrates on designing and applying an adaptive cyber-tolerant finite-time frequency control framework for smart power systems under state-dependent sensor deception and periodic denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. An adaptive radial-basis function neural network (RBFNN)-based disturbance observer (DO) is designed to estimate undeniable plant disturbances, which includes structural uncertainties and unmodelled dynamics. Then, the DO-based resilient secondary control law based on the adaptive nonlinear sliding mode strategy for the cyber-physical power system (CPPS) is derived to guarantee global uniform asymptotic stability of the parametric error and the selected nonlinear sliding manifold. Furthermore, an in-depth analysis of uniformly ultimately boundedness (UUB) of the estimation error of RBFNN has been demonstrated. Numerical simulation and qualitative assessment have revealed the proficiency of the applied feedback control framework for the undertaken CPPS and a high-degree of cyber-tolerance against malicious attacks.
