Abstract
In this paper we address the problem of how to
excite networked control systems in such a way that faulty,
and possibly malicious, agents can be detected. In particular,
we envision a scenario in which a subset of the agents in the network are executing a different control strategy than
what has been prescribed and the problem under consideration
consists of two subtasks, namely detection of the faulty agents,
and isolation and mitigation of their impact on the remaining
agents. We achieve this by proposing a collection of "motion
probes" that leave certain aspects of the network invariant
while ensuring that non-cooperative agents are identified and
isolated. While we propose a useful tool to identify the faulty
agents, the actual algorithms and policies that make use of the
motion probes are left to future research.
