This paper presents a review of technical works in the field of cyber-physical attacks on the smart grid. The paper starts by discussing two reference mathematical frameworks proposed in the literature to model a smart grid under attack. Then, a review of cyber-physical attacks on the smart grid is presented, starting from works on false data injection attacks against state estimation. The aim is to present a systematic and quantitative discussion of the basic working principles of the attacks, also in terms of the inner smart grid vulnerabilities and dynamical properties exploited by the attack. The main contribution of the paper is the attempt to provide a unifying view, highlighting the fundamental aspects and the common working principles shared by the attack models, even when targeting different subsystems of the smart grid.

系统理论视角的智能电网中的网络物理攻击回顾

本文介绍了智能电网上的网络物理攻击领域的技术工作。本文首先讨论文献中提出的两个参考数学框架，以对受攻击的智能电网进行建模。然后，从对状态估计的错误数据注入攻击的工作入手，对智能电网上的网络物理攻击进行了综述。目的是就攻击的基本工作原理，以及攻击所利用的内部智能电网漏洞和动态特性，进行系统，定量的讨论。本文的主要贡献是试图提供一个统一的观点，突出了攻击模型所共享的基本方面和通用工作原理，即使针对智能电网的不同子系统也是如此。
