Secure State Estimation for Motion Monitoring of Intelligent Connected Vehicle Systems

This paper considers the state estimation problem of intelligent connected vehicle systems under the false data injection attack in wireless monitoring networks. We propose a new secure state estimation method to reconstruct the motion states of the connected vehicles equipped with cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) systems. First, the set of CACC models combined with Proportion-Differentiation (PD) controllers are used to represent the longitudinal dynamics of the intelligent connected vehicle systems. Then the notion of sparseness is employed to model the false data injection attack of the wireless networks of the monitoring platform. According to the corrupted data of the vehicles' states, the compressed sensing principle is used to describe the secure state estimation problem of the connected vehicles. Moreover, the L₁ norm optimization problem is solved to reconstruct the motion states of the vehicles based on the orthogonaldecomposition. Finally, the simulation experiments verify that the proposed method can effectively reconstruct the motion states of vehicles for remote monitoring of the intelligent connected vehicle system.
