Networked robotic systems, such as connected vehicle platoons, can improve the safety and efficiency of transportation networks by allowing for high-speed coordination. To enable such coordination, these systems rely on networked communications. This can make them susceptible to cyber attacks. Though security methods such as encryption or specially designed network topologies can increase the difficulty of successfully executing such an attack, these techniques are unable to guarantee secure communication against an attacker. More troublingly, these security methods are unable to ensure that individual agents are able to detect attacks that alter the content of specific messages. To ensure resilient behavior under such attacks, this paper formulates a networked linear time-varying version of dynamic watermarking in which each agent generates and adds a private excitation to the input of its corresponding robotic subsystem. This paper demonstrates that such a method can enable each agent in a networked robotic system to detect cyber attacks. By altering measurements sent between vehicles, this paper illustrates that an attacker can create unstable behavior within a platoon. By utilizing the dynamic watermarking method proposed in this paper, the attack is detected, allowing the vehicles in the platoon to gracefully degrade to a non-communicative control strategy that maintains safety across a variety of scenarios.

We here investigate secure control of networked control systems developing a new dynamic watermarking (DW) scheme. Firstly, the weaknesses of the conventional DW scheme are revealed, and the tradeoff between the effectiveness of false data injection attack (FDIA) detection and system performance loss is analysed. Secondly, we propose a new DW scheme, and its attack detection capability is interrogated using the additive distortion power of a closed-loop system. Furthermore, the FDIA detection effectiveness of the closed-loop system is analysed using auto/cross covariance of the signals, where the positive correlation between the FDIA detection effectiveness and the watermarking intensity is measured. Thirdly, the tolerance capacity of FDIA against the closed-loop system is investigated, and theoretical analysis shows that the system performance can be recovered from FDIA using our new DW scheme. Finally, experimental results from a networked inverted pendulum system demonstrate the validity of our proposed scheme.
In this paper, we investigate the role of a physical watermarking signal in quickest detection of a deception attack in a scalar linear control system where the sensor measurements can be replaced by an arbitrary stationary signal generated by an att acker. By adding a random watermarking signal to the control action, the controller designs a sequential test based on a Cumulative Sum (CUSUM) method that accumulates the log-likelihood ratio of the joint distribution of the residue and the watermarking signal (under attack) and the joint distribution of the innovations and the watermarking signal under no attack. As the average detection delay in such tests is asymptotically (as the false alarm rate goes to zero) upper bounded by a quantity inversely proportional to the Kullback-Leibler divergence(KLD) measure between the two joint distributions mentioned above, we analyze the effect of the watermarking signal variance on the above KLD. We also analyze the increase in the LQG control cost due to the watermarking signal, and show that there is a tradeoff between quick detection of attacks and the penalty in the control cost. It is shown that by considering a sequential detection test based on the joint distributions of residue/innovations and the watermarking signal, as opposed to the distributions of the residue/innovations only, we can achieve a higher KLD, thus resulting in a reduced average detection delay. Numerical results are provided to support our claims.
In this paper, we propose and analyze an attack detection scheme for securing the physical layer of a networked control system against attacks where the adversary replaces the true observations with stationary false data. An independent and identical ly distributed watermarking signal is added to the optimal linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control inputs, and a cumulative sum (CUSUM) test is carried out using the joint distribution of the innovation signal and the watermarking signal for quickest attack detection. We derive the expressions of the supremum of the average detection delay (SADD) for a multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) system under the optimal and sub-optimal CUSUM tests. The SADD is asymptotically inversely proportional to the expected Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD) under certain conditions. The expressions for the MIMO case are simplified for multi-input and single-output systems and explored further to distil design insights. We provide insights into the design of an optimal watermarking signal to maximize KLD for a given fixed increase in LQG control cost when there is no attack. Furthermore, we investigate how the attacker and the control system designer can accomplish their respective objectives by changing the relative power of the attack signal and the watermarking signal. Simulations and numerical studies are carried out to validate the theoretical results.
This paper considers a time-varying optimization problem associated with a network of systems, with each of the systems shared by (and affecting) a number of individuals. The objective is to minimize cost functions associated with the individuals pre ferences, which are unknown, subject to time-varying constraints that capture physical or operational limits of the network. To this end, the paper develops a distributed online optimization algorithm with concurrent learning of the cost functions. The cost functions are learned on-the-fly based on the users feedback (provided at irregular intervals) by leveraging tools from shape-constrained Gaussian Processes. The online algorithm is based on a primal-dual method, and acts effectively in a closed-loop fashion where: i) users feedback is utilized to estimate the cost, and ii) measurements from the network are utilized in the algorithmic steps to bypass the need for sensing of (unknown) exogenous inputs of the network. The performance of the algorithm is analyzed in terms of dynamic network regret and constraint violation. Numerical examples are presented in the context of real-time optimization of distributed energy resources.
We consider optimization problems for (networked) systems, where we minimize a cost that includes a known time-varying function associated with the systems outputs and an unknown function of the inputs. We focus on a data-based online projected gradi ent algorithm where: i) the input-output map of the system is replaced by measurements of the output whenever available (thus leading to a closed-loop setup); and ii) the unknown function is learned based on functional evaluations that may occur infrequently. Accordingly, the feedback-based online algorithm operates in a regime with inexact gradient knowledge and with random updates. We show that the online algorithm generates points that are within a bounded error from the optimal solution of the problem; in particular, we provide error bounds in expectation and in high-probability, where the latter is given when the gradient error follows a sub-Weibull distribution and when missing measurements are modeled as Bernoulli random variables. We also provide results in terms of input-to-state stability in expectation and in probability. Numerical results are presented in the context of a demand response task in power systems.
