Detecting False Data Injection Attacks to Battery State Estimation Using Cumulative Sum Algorithm
Estimated parameters in Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) may be vulnerable to cyber-attacks such as False Data Injection Attacks (FDIAs). FDIAs, which typically evade bad data detectors, could damage or degrade Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs). This paper will investigate methods to detect small magnitude FDIA using battery equivalent circuit models, an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), and a Cumulative Sum (CUSUM) algorithm. A priori error residual data estimated by the EKF was used in the CUSUM algorithm to find the lowest detectable FDIA for this battery equivalent model. The algorithm described in this paper was able to detect attacks as low as 1 mV, with no false positives. The CUSUM algorithm was compared to a chi-squared based FDIA detector. In this study the CUSUM was found to detect attacks of smaller magnitudes than the conventional chi-squared detector.
