A Hybrid Controller for DOS-Resilient String-Stable Vehicle Platoons

This paper deals with the design of resilient Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) for homogeneous vehicle platoons in which communication is vulnerable to Denial-of-Service (DOS) attacks. We consider DOS attacks as consecutive packet dropouts. present a controller tuning procedure based on linear matrix inequalities (LMI) that maximizes resiliency attacks, while guaranteeing performance and string stability. The returns gains gives lower bound maximum allowable number successive A numerical example employed illustrate effectiveness proposed approach.
