CNN and LSTM based Data-driven Cyberattack Detection for Grid-connected PV Inverter

• Growing penetration of renewables comes with increased cyber security threat due to inherent low inertia characteristic and sophisticated control and communication networks of power electronics. This paper proposes a data-driven cyberattack detection strategy for grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) inverters. Ideas of long short term memory (LSTM) and convolutional neural network (CNN) as the core of detection achieve time series classification to diagnose the target and mode of cyberattack. Input de-redundancy and hyperparameter selection are conducted to optimize the detection. Meanwhile, well-designed cyberattack toolboxes of false data injection (FDI), denial-of-service (DoS) and delay are applied upon the communication of both sampled signals and issued commands in a grid-connected inverter model. By observing system performance via electrical measurements, this case study evaluates the LSTM, CNN-LSTM and convolutional LSTM based detection and obtains stable high quality of classification.
