Water is the most important element of food production, and the easiest and most cost-
efficient way to transport it is through open-channel irrigation systems (OCIS). These types of …

This brief aims to perform security threat assessment of networked control systems with
regulatory and supervisory control layers. We analyze the performance of a proportional …

This paper investigates the problem of detection and isolation of attacks on a water
distribution network comprised of cascaded canal pools. The proposed approach employs a …

The ability of PI and PID controllers to compensate many practical processes has led to their
wide acceptance in industrial applications. The requirement to choose two or three controller …

This article investigates the vulnerabilities of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition
(SCADA) systems which monitor and control the modern day irrigation canal systems. This …

Nowadays, pressurized irrigation systems have been developing in farms to increase water
use efficiency that are successful when the inflow is accurately supplied from water sources …

Automatic canal control is essential to improve water utilization efficiency in irrigation
districts. Water level error in the model used by the control algorithm significantly impacts …

A new Proportional-Integral (PI) tuning method based on Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) is
presented. In particular, an LMI-based optimal control problem is solved to obtain a sparse …

Improved water management and efficient investment in the modernization of irrigation
schemes are essential measures in many countries to satisfy the increasing demand for …

Abstract Model predictive control (MPC) is an effective real-time control method in dealing
with water level deviations in canal pools. However, the control interval must be relatively …
