Cyber-Attack Detection on an Industrial Control System Testbed using Dynamic Watermarking: A Power Grid Application

An Industrial Control System (ICS) is used to monitor and control industrial processes and critical infrastructure, and is therefore crucial to modern society. This makes them attractive targets for malicious cyber-attacks, which have become more advanced and abundant in recent history. To properly defend ICSs from these cyber-attacks,...

Model Predictive Control for Vehicle Platooning: A Practical Comparison against Traditional Methods

Due to the increase in traffic, road congestion has gone up. Vehicle platooning is a possible way to increase the capacity of a given road, by decreasing the distance between the vehicles in the platoon. At the moment, the control of vehicle platoons is commonly done using PDD controllers. The advantage of this is that it requires little...

Detecting Malicious Behavior In Cooperative Autonomous RC Cars

Sensors are used all around us in various industries, for instance: agricultural, medical,aerospace and automotive. It is important for these industries to have reliable sensor data because the functionality of technologies depends on it. In this work, the industry of inter-est is automotive, specifically in the field of Cooperative Adaptive...

Anomaly Detection in Intersection Control: Sliding Mode Observer Based Anomaly Detection in Virtual Platooning Enabled Intersection Control

Road intersections have a large impact on road accidents and travel delay. Applying infrastructure, such as stop signs and traffic lights, are supposed to prevent collisions on the intersection. However, such methods contribute to the travel delay, while accidents still occur due to human errors. Considering the rise of automation within...
