Secure Fusion with Labeled Multi-Bernoulli Filter for Multisensor Multitarget Tracking Against False Data Injection Attacks.

This paper addresses multisensor multitarget tracking where the sensor network can potentially be compromised by false data injection (FDI) attacks. The existence of the targets is not known and time-varying. A tracking algorithm is proposed that can detect the possible FDI attacks over the networks. First, a local estimate is generated from the measurements of each sensor based on the labeled multi-Bernoulli (LMB) filter. Then, a detection method for FDI attacks is derived based on the Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD) between LMB random finite set (RFS) densities. The statistical characteristics of the KLD are analyzed when the measurements are secure or compromised by FDI attacks, from which the value of the threshold is selected. Finally, the global estimate is obtained by minimizing the weighted sum of the information gains from all secure local estimates to itself. A set of suitable weight parameters is selected for the information fusion of LMB densities. An efficient Gaussian implementation of the proposed algorithm is also presented for the linear Gaussian state evolution and measurement model. Experimental results illustrate that the proposed algorithm can provide reliable tracking performance against the FDI attacks.
