Abstract
- It is well-known that distributed control can improve the resiliency of dc microgrids against multiple link failures as compared to centralized control. However, the control layer is still vulnerable to cyber attacks. Unlike widely studied false data injection attacks, which involve adding false signals on top of the existing ones in the controller or communication links, hijacking attacks completely replace the existing signals. As a result, the compromised agent(s) diverge from steady state owing to imbalance in the iterative rule of consensus algorithm. To detect hijacking attacks, a novel distributed screening (DS) methodology is proposed. In addition to that, a fault detection (FD) metric is provided to assist the proposed attack detection strategy in differentiating between hijacking attacks and sensor faults. This reduces the complexity of decision making in the attack mitigation approach. Furthermore, interoperability of the proposed detection metrics allows simultaneous detection of sensor faults and hijacking attacks. The performance of the proposed detection metrics is evaluated under simulation and experimental conditions to conclude that it successfully detects the attacked agent(s) as well as sensor fault(s).
