This article addresses the challenge of achieving asymptotic stability in nonlinear networked control systems (NNCSs) amid denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, particularly under constrained communication resources. We begin by establishing a practical DoS attack model using the NSL-KDD dataset, which provides a realistic depiction of DoS attack dynamics based on real-world data. We then introduce the iterative shrinkage-thresholding algorithm (ISTA) to supervise the adaptive event-triggered controller (AETC), ensuring that system parameters are adjusted effectively while conserving communication resources. We develop an enhanced data compression mechanism to further mitigate the impact of DoS attacks on communication servers. Additionally, we construct an asymmetric Lyapunov-Krasovskii function (LKF) to rigorously verify the asymptotic stability of NNCSs. Finally, we empirically validate the effectiveness of our proposed AETC using an autonomous vehicle (AV) model.
