Robust H∞ Sensor Fault Diagnosis with Neural Network

The paper deals with the problem of a robust fault diagnosis for Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) systems with Recurrent NeuralNetwork (RNN). The preliminary part of the paper describes the derivation of a discrete-time polytopic LPV model with RNN. Subsequently, a robust fault detection, isolation and identification scheme is developed, which is based on the observer and H∞ framework for a class of nonlinear systems. The proposed approach is designed in such a way that a prescribed disturbance attenuation level is achieved with respect to the sensor fault estimation error while guaranteeing the convergence of the observer.
