Active Fault Tolerant Control

Fault-tolerant control is becoming an interesting topic because of its reliability and safety. This paper reports an active fault-tolerant control method for a quadcopter unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to handle actuator faults, disturbances, and input constraints. A robust fault diagnosis based on the H ∞ scheme was designed to estimate the magnitude of a time-varying fault in the presence of disturbances with unknown upper bounds. Once the fault estimation was complete, a fault-tolerant control scheme was proposed for the attitude system, using adaptive sliding mode backstepping control to accommodate the actuator faults, despite actuator saturation limitation and disturbances. The Lyapunov theory was applied to prove the robustness and stability of the closed-loop system under faulty operation. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the fault diagnosis scheme and proposed controller for handling actuator faults.

Fault-tolerant control has drawn attention in recent years owning to its reliability and safe flight during missions. In this article, an active fault-tolerant control method is proposed to control a quadcopter in the presence of actuator faults and disturbances. Firstly, the dynamics of the quadcopter are presented. Secondly, a robust adaptive sliding mode Thau observer is presented to estimate the time-varying magnitudes of actuator faults. Thirdly, a fault-tolerant control scheme based on sliding mode control and reconfiguration technique is designed to maintain the quadcopter at the desired position despite the presence of faults. Unlike previous studies, the proposed method aims to integrate the fault diagnosis and a fault-tolerant control scheme into a single unit with total loss of actuator. Simulation results illustrate the efficiency of the suggested algorithm.

Active Fault Tolerant Control

In this study, the active fault-tolerant control problem is investigated for a rigid spacecraft in the presence of inertia uncertainty, external disturbance, multiple actuator faults and actuator saturation. The attitude system model of spacecraft and actuator fault model are first given. A sliding mode–based fault detection observer and a radial basis function neural networks–based fault estimation observer are designed to detect the time of actuator fault occurred and estimate the amplitude of unknown fault, respectively. On that basis, an active fault-tolerant control scheme is proposed to accommodate the effects of multiple actuator faults, and it guarantees that the state trajectory of attitude systems without actuator saturation converges to a neighborhood of the origin in finite time. Another active fault-tolerant control scheme is further proposed in actuator saturation constraint case; it ensures that all the closed-loop signals are finite time convergence. Finally, simulation results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed fault-tolerant control approach.
