Abstract [en]
This work considers the problem of designing an attack strategy on remote state estimation under the condition of strict stealthiness and 6-stealthiness of the attack. An attacker is assumed to be able to launch a linear attack to modify sensor data. A metric based on Kullback-Leibler divergence is adopted to quantify the stealthiness of the attack. We propose a generalized linear attack based on past attack signals and the latest innovation. We prove that the proposed approach can obtain an attack which can cause more estimation performance loss than linear attack strategies recently studied in the literature. The result thus provides a bound on the tradeoff between available information and attack performance, which is useful in the development of mitigation strategies. Finally, some numerical examples are given to evaluate the performance of the proposed strategy.
