This article describes the design and implementation of a flexible, scalable, easy-to-use and extensible IoT embedded system to control sprinkler irrigation in an outdoor Thuja conifer nursery in an automated mode and under varying weather. Irrigation is controlled by Mamdani Fuzzy Inference Logic based on rainfall prediction and real-time monitoring of the plants.

The system is robust in the event of a power outage or loss of connectivity. The code is available on GitHub. Sensors, solenoid valves, Raspberry Pi microcontrollers, fuzzy logic systems, a web interface and a cloud service create a sustainable solution that makes water use more efficient, creates a healthy environment for crops (using just the right amount of water), makes life easier for farmers, and exposes them to the benefits of the IoT.</p>","PeriodicalId":36881,"journal":{"name":"IET Cyber-Physical Systems: Theory and Applications","volume":"9 2","pages":"150-168"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/cps2.12054","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72762867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work proposes a self-supervised pre-training approach for autonomous learning of the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) data representations for photovoltaic (PV) systems. Specifically, the proposed method first constructs the sample pairs using reasonable assumptions from a large volume of unlabelled SCADA data. Then, it designs a deep Siamese network to extract the representations of the input sample pair and sets the pretext task to measure whether the input pair is similar. The proposed method has been deployed in a PV system with nominal power 2.5 MW located in North China.

An SVPWM strategy suitable for MMC is proposed. The strategy is divided into three stages. In the first stage, the appropriate voltage vector, the action time and the basic sub-module (SM) input number are quickly calculated to ensure the output quality by equating MMC as a 2-level inverter. In the second stage, a finite set of the circulating current suppression is established on the basis of the basic SM input number. The optimal SM input number is selected through rolling optimisation. In the last stage, according to the SM voltage sorting and the optimal SM input number, the optimal switching state is determined to realise the SM voltage balance control. The proposed control strategy simplifies the design of the control system, reduces the computational burden and can be easily extended to MMC with any SM number.

Defenders need to proactively identify and defend new high-risk access paths of cyber intruders that target grid resilience. However, cyber-physical risk analysis and defense in power systems often requires making assumptions on adversary behaviour, and these assumptions can be wrong. Thus, this work examines the problem of inferring adversary behaviour in power systems to improve risk-based defense and detection. To achieve this, a Bayesian approach for inference of the Cyber-Adversarial Power System (Bayes-CAPS) is proposed that uses Bayesian networks (BNs) to define and solve the inference problem of adversarial movement in the grid infrastructure towards targets of physical impact. Specifically, BNs are used to compute conditional probabilities to queries, such as the probability of observing an event given a set of alerts. Bayes-CAPS builds initial Bayesian attack graphs for realistic power system cyber-physical models. These models are adaptable using collected data from the system under study. Then, Bayes-CAPS computes the posterior probabilities of the occurrence of a security breach event in power systems. Experiments are conducted that evaluate algorithms based on time complexity, accuracy and impact of evidence for different scales and densities of network. The performance is evaluated and compared for five realistic cyber-physical power system models of increasing size and complexities ranging from 8 to 300 substations based on computation and accuracy impacts.</p>","PeriodicalId":36881,"journal":{"name":"IET Cyber-Physical Systems: Theory and Applications","volume":"8 2","pages":"91-108"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/cps2.12047","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50128539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
