Multiple-Fault Diagnosis Based On Adaptive Diagnostic Test Pattern Generation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose two fault-diagnosis methods for improving multiple-fault diagnosis resolution. The first method, based on the principle of single-fault activation and single-output observation, employs a new circuit transformation technique in conjunction with the use of a special type of diagnostic test pattern, named single-observation single-location-at-a-time (SO-SLAT) pattern. Given a list of candidate suspects (which could be stuck-at, transition, bridging, or other faults obtained by any existing diagnosis method), we generate a set of SO-SLAT patterns, each of which attempts to activate only one fault in the list and propagate its effects only to a specific observation point. Observing the responses of the circuit under diagnosis to the SO-SLAT patterns helps more precisely determine whether each fault suspect is a true or false candidate. The method can tolerate most of the timing hazards for a more accurate diagnosis of failures caused by timing faults. The second method generates and applies limited-cycle sequential tests, based on a Boolean satisfiability solver, to identify multiple defective signals which can jointly explain the circuit’s faulty behavior. These two methods can be applied independently and/or jointly after any existing state-of-the-art diagnosis process to further improve the diagnosis resolution. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods for diagnosing multiple faults, including timing faults.

Identification and Robust Fault Detection of Industrial Gas Turbine Prototype Using LLNF Model
In this study, detection and identification of common faults in industrial gas turbines is investigated. We propose a model-based robust fault detection(FD) method based on multiple models. For residual generation a bank of Local Linear Neuro-Fuzzy (LLNF) models is used. Moreover, in fault detection step, a passive approach based on adaptive threshold is employed. To achieve this purpose, the a...
متن کاملAdaptive Techniques for Improving Delay Fault Diagnosis
This paper presents adaptive techniques for improving delay fault diagnosis. These techniques reduce the search space for direct probing which can save a lot of time during failure analysis. Given a set of two-pattern tests that resulted in faulty output responses, a procedure for deriving additional two-pattern tests that will improve the diagnostic resolution of delay faults is described. Two...
متن کاملA Deterministic Approach for Diagnosis Test Generation
The main purpose of the diagnosis test pattern generation is to give the enough information for fault diagnosis during the manufacturing time. The most of the test generation methods are simulation based and have probabilistic nature. In this paper I propose the deterministic approach, which guarantees fault distinguishability. Algorithm is single stuck-at fault based. I perform some optimizati...

متن کاملExclusive Test and its Applications to Fault Diagnosis
We introduce a new type of test, called exclusive test, and discuss its application to fault diagnosis in combinational circuits. A test that detects exactly one fault from a given pair of faults is called an exclusive test. In general, generation of an exclusive test by a conventional automatic test generator requires a model of the circuit with multiple-faults. We describe an ATPG model that ...
