  • Abstract: The supervision domain particularly the anomaly detection represents an important aspect of guaranteeing a Quality of Service to commu! nication networks. A wide variety of disruptions designat! ed as an omalies are often related to physical or technical problems such as power or file server failures, abrupt changes caused by legitimate traffic such as network congestion or flash crowds, and risky illegitimate behavior such as Denial-of-Service and Distributed Denial of Service (DoS/DDoS) attacks. We address the problem of anomaly detection and reconstruction in TCP/IP model based on control theory techniques. These anomalies are considered as fault signals in the mathematical model adopted for representing TCP/IP dynamics. For fault detection and according to our knowledge of the faults variations, the observers may be classified into known or unknown input observers. Our first contribution in terms of conceiving known input observers is limited to polynomial forms able to cover a wide range of anomalies. The anomaly and its derivatives are reconstructed by Luenberger observers after introducing them in the state space of the system. The construction of these lat! ter observers is limited in terms of specific anomaly profiles and constrained by the polynomial degree associated to the anomaly. Therefore, another detection approach dealing with completely unknown anomalies is proposed. The sliding modes of first and higher orders are investigated to guarantee finite time convergence and robustness against parametric uncertainties and faults. Our proposals have been studied analytically by validation via Matlab/Simulink and the Network Simulator NS-2. Furthermore, in the context of NS-2, these approaches are integrated into a module for replaying traffic traces in order to test them on a TCP traffic captured in real environment.

    Title :   Identification et Commande pour l’Atténuation des Vibrations du Robot Parallèle Par2

    Abstract : Le robot parallèle Par2, conçu pour des opérations industrielles de prise et dépose à haute vitesse et à haute précision, subit des vibrations importantes en fin de déplacement. Nous proposons d´utiliser des actionneurs piézo-électriques positionnées sur les bras du robot pour effectuer le contrôle de vibration. Dans une première étape, l'identification en boucle ouverte des modes flexibles du robot à un point d'opération nominal est réalisée, utilisant une technique basée sur les sous-espaces. Deux modèles sont identifiés, l´un est utilisé pour la synthèse de contrôleurs et l´autre, plus complexe, est dédié à la validation des lois de commande par la simulation. Des contrôleurs stabilisant la boucle fermée sont obtenus et comparés pour deux stratégies de synthèse: H-inf à sensibilité mixte et H-inf Loop Shaping. La robustesse des contrôleurs est ensuite testée autour de différentes trajectoires et pour différentes conditions de charge. Une stratégie anti-windup est aussi mise en place pour corriger l'action d'un contrôleur lorsque celui-ci s'avère défaillant dans certaines situations limites. Des résultats en simulations et expérimentaux permettent d´évaluer et comparer l'efficacité des lois de commande étudiées.
