This paper studies resilient control for cyber-physical systems operating under hidden degraded or compromised modes. We formulate hidden-mode detection and belief-dependent control as a game between two decision makers with different objectives: the detector seeks informative belief updates, while the controller seeks regulation performance. This objective mismatch shows why the usual separation intuition between detector design and controller design may fail, leading to a performance-reversal phenomenon induced by the resilience of the controller. For a two-mode linear Gaussian system, we theoretically characterize this phenomenon by linking the resilience margin to the log-likelihood evidence. The analysis shows that a well-performing controller with a large resilience margin can suppress mode-dependent information and slow belief adaptation, which in turn degrades the control performance. The resilience-induced blindness phenomenon and its mitigation are illustrated in numerical simulations.
This paper proposes a human-on-the-loop resilient control architecture for grid-supporting inverter-based resources (IBRs) operating under actuator degradation. Conventional fault-tolerant control and adaptive control strategies each face notable limitations in this setting: acti…
Ensuring the operational safety of quadrotors under partial actuator failures, lumped external disturbances, and malicious cyberattacks is a critical challenge due to the system's underactuated and highly nonlinear nature. Building on the existing result of a fault-tolerant contr…
Resilient-by-design smart grid control demands frameworks capable of maintaining stability under physical disturbances and communication failures, without reliance on centralized coordination. While Centralized Training Decentralized Execution (CTDE) enables a learning-based cont…
Encrypted control lets a cloud coordinate a fleet of agents on fully homomorphically encrypted state, keeping their positions and commands private. The approximate scheme for real-valued control, CKKS, returns decryptions that carry the encryption noise, a key-recovery leak; the…
Although the electromagnetic transient (EMT) framework can capture subsynchronous oscillations (SSOs), it faces scalability issues for large-scale systems. Thus motivated, we propose a generalized dynamic phasor (DP) framework to analyze SSOs in multi-machine systems with inverte…
Wearable ultrasound enables continuous monitoring of physiological processes such as muscle dynamics, bladder volume, and cardiovascular activity. Existing fully wearable ultra-low-power platforms are limited to shallow, low-channel A-mode sensing, while larger multi-mode systems…
