Adaptive NN Finite-Time Resilient Control for Nonlinear Time-Delay Systems With Unknown False Data Injection and Actuator Faults.

This article considers neural network (NN)-based adaptive finite-time resilient control problem for a class of nonlinear time-delay systems with unknown fault data injection attacks and actuator faults. In the procedure of recursive design, a coordinate transformation and a modified fractional-order command-filtered (FOCF) backstepping technique are incorporated to handle the unknown false data injection attacks and overcome the issue of "explosion of complexity" caused by repeatedly taking derivatives for virtual control laws. The theoretical analysis proves that the developed resilient controller can guarantee the finite-time stability of the closed-loop system (CLS) and the stabilization errors converge to an adjustable neighborhood of zero. The foremost contributions of this work include: 1) by means of a modified FOCF technique, the adaptive resilient control problem of more general nonlinear time-delay systems with unknown cyberattacks and actuator faults is first considered; 2) different from most of the existing results, the commonly used assumptions on the sign of attack weight and prior knowledge of actuator faults are fully removed in this article. Finally, two simulation examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed control scheme.
