This article investigates the leader-following secure output consensus (LFSOC) problem of the heterogeneous multiagent systems (MASs) under the hybrid cyber-attacks. A novel hybrid cyber-attack model consisting of aperiodic additive deception (AAD) attacks and aperiodic denial of service (ADoS) attacks is proposed for characterizing cyber-attacks in a real network, where the aperiodicity is reflected in the fact that the duration of each cyber-attack can be different. First, a compensator is introduced for each agent to estimate the leader's state. Second, two sampling mechanisms consisting of a multirate sampling (MRS) mechanism and a periodic sampling mechanism are employed for heterogeneous MASs. The MRS mechanism is used to obtain real-time sampled data on the different physical variables of each agent. The periodic sampling mechanism is applied to sample the agents' compensators and the sampled data are broadcast to their neighbors immediately through a network. By selecting an appropriate sampling period (i.e., a communication period of the compensators), the robustness of heterogeneous MASs against hybrid cyber-attacks can be enhanced. Then, the appropriate communication period is selected for the compensators in different network environments by taking into consideration the cyber-attack parameters. Under these two sampling mechanisms, a sync controller is developed to achieve the LFSOC of heterogeneous MASs. Finally, an example is presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
