Abstract: Secure platooning control is an important topic for ensuring traffic safety in intelligent transportation systems. This paper focuses on the issue of secure control for vehicle platooning under denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. An event-triggered distributed observer is first constructed to obtain relevant information about the leader. An event-triggered controller is then constructed to perform tracking control based on the estimate of the leader. Subsequently, a continuous interval-dependent Lyapunov function is established to analyze the exponential stability of the vehicle system, and the controller and observer gains are designed based on the feasibility of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, the effectiveness of the control strategy is verified through simulation studies.
