Laplace-Domain Hybrid Distribution Model Based FDIA Attack Sample Generation in Smart Grids
Abstract
False data injection attack (FDIA) is a deliberate modification of measurement data collected by the power grid using vulnerabilities in power grid state estimation, resulting in erroneous judgments made by the power grid control center. As a symmetrical defense scheme, FDIA detection usually uses machine learning methods to detect attack samples. However, existing detection models for FDIA typically require large-scale training samples, which are difficult to obtain in practical scenarios, making it difficult for detection models to achieve effective detection performance. In light of this, this paper proposes a novel FDIA sample generation method to construct large-scale attack samples by introducing a hybrid Laplacian model capable of accurately fitting the distribution of data changes. First, we analyze the large-scale power system sensing measurement data and establish the data distribution model of symmetric Laplace distribution. Furthermore, a hybrid Laplace-domain symmetric distribution model with multi-dimensional component parameters is constructed, which can induce a deliberate deviation in the state estimation from its safe value by injecting into the power system measurement. Due to the influence of the multivariate parameters of the hybrid Laplace-domain distribution model, the sample deviation generated by this model can not only obtain an efficient attack effect, but also effectively avoid the recognition of the FDIA detection model. Extensive experiments are carried out over IEEE 14-bus and IEEE 118-bus test systems. The corresponding results unequivocally demonstrate that our proposed attack method can quickly construct large-scale FDIA attack samples and exhibit significantly higher resistance to detection by state-of-the-art detection models, while also offering superior concealment capabilities compared to traditional FDIA approaches.
