Popis: Security of Distributed Parameter Cyber-Physical Systems (DPCPSs) is of critical importance in the face of cyber-attack threats. Although security aspects of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) modelled by Ordinary differential Equations (ODEs) have been extensively explored during the past decade, security of DPCPSs has not received its due attention despite its safety-critical nature. In this work, we explore the security aspects of DPCPSs from a system theoretic viewpoint. Specifically, we focus on DPCPSs modelled by linear parabolic Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) subject to cyber-attacks in actuation channel. First, we explore the detectability of such attacks and derive conditions for stealthy attacks. Next, we develop a design framework for cyber-attack detection algorithms based on output injection observers. Such attack detection algorithms explicitly consider stability, robustness and attack sensitivity in their design. Finally, theoretical analysis and simulation studies are performed to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
