Abstract
This article investigates the resilient distributed Nash equilibrium (NE) control problem for nonlinear multiagent systems (MASs) that suffers from denial-of-service (DoS) attacks in the communication network. Different from the existing works on NE seeking in noncooperative games, it is the first trial to consider the resilient distributed NE control problem for nonlinear MASs under DoS attacks. To overcome the challenges caused by the considered problem, a new layered NE control method is developed, which consists of a resilient distributed NE seeking algorithm, two-stage cascade filters, and a resilient adaptive controller. Specifically, the resilient distributed NE seeking algorithm is proposed to ensure that the actions in this algorithm converge to the NE even under DoS attacks. Then, the improved actions with smooth characteristics are designed by introducing novel two-stage cascade filters. By using newly designed actions and their derivatives, a resilient adaptive controller is proposed to ensure that the output of MASs converges to the NE. Finally, simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.
