Resilient Secondary Control and Stability Analysis for DC Microgrids Under Mixed Cyber Attacks

Abstract

Distributed control technology has significantly improved the regulation of dc microgrid systems. However, it also introduces potential cyber-security threats during the communication process. In particular, the system is vulnerable to two types of attacks: denial-of-service (DoS) and false data injection (FDI) attacks. If both attacks occur simultaneously, they can destabilize the dc microgrid and jeopardize its safe operation. To ensure system stability under mixed DoS and unbounded FDI attacks, a consensus-based secondary control strategy is proposed. This strategy includes an adaptive feedback term to counteract FDI signals in the presence of DoS attacks. The stability of the system is rigorously analyzed using the Lyapunov method. Finally, numerical and experimental tests confirm the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.
