Abstract:

This paper presents a new observer design methodology for a time varying actuator fault estimation. A new linear matrix inequality (LMI) design algorithm is developed to tackle the limitations (e.g. equality constraint and robustness problems) of the well known so called fast adaptive fault estimation observer (FAFE). The FAFE is capable of estimating a wide range of time-varying actuator fault signals via augmenting the Luenberger-observer by a proportional integral fault estimator feedback. Within this framework, the main contribution of this paper is the proposal of new LMI formulation that incorporates the use of  norm minimization: (a) to obviate the FAFE equality constraint in order to relax the design algorithm, (b) to ensure robustness against external disturbances, (c) to provide additional degrees of freedom to solve the infeasible optimization problem via assigning different proportional and integral fault estimator gains. Finally, a VTOL aircraft simulation example is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed FAFE.

An Adaptive Observer for Sensor Fault Estimation in Linear Time Varying Systems

A method for sensor fault estimation in multiple-input multiple-output linear time varying systems is proposed in this paper. It is based on a new adaptive observer for joint estimation of states and sensor faults in a state-space formulation of the monitored system. The exponential convergence of the algorithm is proved under some persistent excitation condition. Copyright c ©2005 IFAC

Robust Unknown Input Observer-Based Fast Adaptive Fault Estimation: Application to Mobile Robot

This chapter studies the problem of fault estimation using a fast adaptive fault diagnosis observer. Note that the advance of observer-based fault diagnosis is outlined and the idea of fault class estimation is introduced and studied. A new form of the estimator bloc considered for this purpose is an Unknown Input Observer (UIO). This observer is designed for an unknown input and fault free sys...

Robust Unknown Input Observer based Fast Adaptive Fault Estimation: Application to Unicycle Robot

This work studies the problem of fault estimation using a fast adaptive fault diagnosis observer. The estimator bloc considered for this purpose is an Unknown Input Observer (UIO) which is subsequently used for a robust fault detection scheme and also as an adaptive detection design for an additive actuator fault. Stability of the adaptive estimation is provided by a Lyapunov function ending wi...

Robust observer-based fault estimation and accommodation of discrete-time piecewise linear systems

In this paper a new integrated observer-based fault estimation and accommodation strategy for discretetime piecewise linear (PWL) systems subject to actuator faults is proposed. A robust estimator is designed to simultaneously estimate the state of the system and the actuator fault. Then, the estimate of fault is used to compensate for the effect of the fault. By using the estimate of fault and...
