چکیده

In this paper we propose a novel fault tolerant multisensor switching strategy for feedback control. Each sensor of the proposed multisensor scheme has an associated state estimator which, together with a state feedback gain, is able to individually stabilise the closed loop system. At each instant of time, the switching strategy selects the sensor-estimator pair that provides the best closed loop performance, as measured by a control-performance criterion. We establish closed-loop stability of the resulting switching scheme under normal (fault-free) operating conditions. More importantly, we show that closed-loop stability is preserved in the presence of faulty sensors if a set of conditions on the system parameters (such as bounds on the sensor noises, maximum and minimum values of the reference signal, etc.) is satisfied. This result enhances and broadens the applicability of the proposed multisensor scheme since it provides guaranteed properties such as fault tolerance and robust closed-loop stability under sensor fault. The results are applied to the problem of automotive longitudinal control.

Positive invariant sets for fault tolerant multisensor control schemes

Positive invariance is a common analysis and control design tool for systems affected by constraints and disturbances. The present paper revisits the construction of ǫ-approximations of minimal robust positive invariant sets proposing contractive procedures in the cases of switching between different sets of disturbances and the inclusion of a predefined region of the state space. The results a...

Sensor Fault Tolerant Control of Induction Motors

In this paper we propose a multiobserver switching control strategy for fault tolerant control of induction motors. The strategy combines three current sensors and associated observers that estimate the rotor flux. The estimates provided by the observers are compared at each sampling time by a switching mechanism which selects the sensors–observer pair with the smallest error between the estima...

Robust multisensor fault tolerant model-following MPC design for constrained systems

In this paper, a robust fault-tolerant control strategy for constrained multisensor linear systems, subject to sensor faults and in the presence of bounded state and output disturbances, is proposed. The scheme verifies that, for each sensors–estimator combination, suitable residual variables lie inside pre-computed sets and selects a more appropriate combination based on a chosen criterion. An...
