This paper considers matrix inequality procedures to address the robust fault detection and isolation (FDI) problem for linear time-invariant systems subject to disturbances, faults, and polytopic or norm-bounded uncertainties. We propose a design procedure for an FDI filter that aims to minimize a weighted combination of the sensitivity of the residual signal to disturbances and modeling errors, and the deviation of the faults to residual dynamics from a fault to residual reference model, using theℋ∞-norm as a measure. A key step in our procedure is the design of an optimal fault reference model. We show that the optimal design requires the solution of a quadratic matrix inequality (QMI) optimization problem. Since the solution of the optimal problem is intractable, we propose a linearization technique to derive a numerically tractable suboptimal design procedure that requires the solution of a linear matrix inequality (LMI) optimization. A jet engine example is employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

This paper deals with the fault detection problem for linear time-invariant systems with unknown disturbances. Two separate performance indices are presented to facilitate the design of desirable fault detection observers. Iterative linear matrix inequality (LMI) algorithms are proposed in order to design a fault detection observer that aims at enhancing the fault detection and attenuating the effects due to unknown inputs. Numerical examples are employed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

This paper proposes an eigenstructure assignment method for engine control system diagnosis based on disturbance decoupling, since noisy disturbance has an adverse impact on the performance of aircraft engine fault detection and isolation (FDI). In practice, it is often difficult to solve the eigenstructure assignment method, and the result is far from being satisfactory. In view of this, the paper makes an attempt to deal with the issue by linear matrix inequality (LMI). The advantages of the presented method are as follows: first, it can reduce the effect of exogenous disturbance on fault detection; In the meantime, it will not impair sensitivity to system faults. Experimental results show that the suggested approach performs well on the simulation of an advanced turbofan engine.

A robust unknown input observer for a nonlinear system whose nonlinear function satisfies the Lipschitz condition is designed based on linear matrix inequality approach. Both noise and uncertainties are taken into account in deriving the observer. A component fault detection and isolation scheme based on these observers is proposed. The effectiveness of the observer and the fault diagnosis scheme is shown by applying them for component fault diagnosis of an electrohydraulic actuator.

With the ongoing increase in complexity, less tolerance to performance degradation and safety requirements of practical systems has increased the necessity of fault detection (FD) as early as possible. During the last few decades, many research findings have been developed in fault diagnosis that addresses the issue of fault detection and isolation in linear and nonlinear systems. The paper’s objective is to present a survey on various state-of-art model-based FD techniques developed for linear time-invariant (LTI) systems for the interested readers to learn about recent development in this field. Model-based FD techniques for LTI systems are classified as parameter-estimation methods, parity-space-based methods, and observer-based methods. The background and recent progress, in context to fault detection, of each of these methods and their practical applications are discussed in this paper. Furthermore, two different FD techniques are compared via analytical equations and simulation results obtained from the DC motor model. In the end, possible future research directions in model-based FD, particularly for the LTI system, are highlighted for prosperous researchers. A comparison and emerging research topic make this contribution different from the existing survey papers on FD.

Abstract A solution for fault tolerant control (FTC) of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is proposed. It relies on model reference-based control, where a reference model generates the desired trajectory. Depending on the type of reference model used for generating the reference trajectory, and on the assumptions about the availability and uncertainty of fault estimation, different error models are obtained. These error models are suitable for passive FTC, active FTC and hybrid FTC, the latter being able to merge the benefits of active and passive FTC while reducing their respective drawbacks. The controller is generated using results from the robust linear parameter varying (LPV) polytopic framework, where the vector of varying parameters is used to schedule between uncertain linear time invariant (LTI) systems. The design procedure relies on solving a set of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) in order to achieve regional pole placement and H∞ norm bounding constraints. Simulation results are used to compare the different FTC strategies.
