Abstract: A new design procedure of a reduced order unknown input observer (UIO) is proposed to generate residuals for fault detection isolation (FDI). The originality of this work consists in the adopted approach for the procedure implementation. Indeed the kernel of the actuator fault distribution matrix is generated thanks to generalized inverses. The Kronecker product is used to solve a Syl...

In this paper we consider the robust partial quadratic eigenvalue assignment problem for second-order control systems by state feedback. To simultaneously reduce the feedback norms and the sensitivity of the close-loop eigenvalues, we formulate the problem as an unconstraint minimization problem for a new proposed cost function. An explicit analytic expression of the gradient of the cost functi...

In this paper, we propose a new method for solving general linear systems with several right-hand sides. This method is based on global least squares method and reduces the original matrix to the lower bidiagonal form. We derive a simple recurrence formula for generating the sequence of approximate solutions {Xk}. Some theoretical properties of the new method are discussed and we also show that...

Abstract For a linear matrix function f in $$X \in {\mathbb {R}}^{m\times n}$$ X ∈ R m × n we consider inhomogeneous equations $$f(X) = E$$ f ( <...

A direct method for eigenvalue reordering in a product of a K-periodic matrix sequence in periodic or extended periodic real Schur form is presented and analyzed. Each reordering of two adjacent sequences of diagonal blocks is performed tentatively to guarantee backward stability and involves solving a K-periodic Sylvester equation (PSE) and constructing a K-periodic sequence of orthogonal tran...

In this contribution we investigate the problem of simultaneous observer based sensor fault reconstruction and state estimation of a class of linear time-varying (LTV) systems that are skew-symmetric models. The main features concern the use of a bank of observers to detect and isolate faulty sensors and in the same time provide unbiased state estimation. On the other hand, we introduced a swit...
