Fault detection filter design for linear systems
This dissertation considers residual generation for robust fault detection of linear systems with control inputs, unknown disturbances and possible faults. First, multi-objective fault detection problems such as , and have been formulated for linear continuous time-varying systems (LCTVS) in time domain for finite horizon and infinite horizon case, respectively. It is shown that under mild assumptions, the optimal solution is an observer determined by solving a standard differential Riccati equation (DRE). The solution is also extended to the case when the initial state for the system is unknown. Second, the parallel problems are also solved for linear discrete time-varying systems in time domain. The solution is again an observer whose gain is determined by solving a standard recursive difference Riccati equation (DDRE). The solution is also extended to the case when the initial state for the system is unknown. Third, for the general case in which (the transfer matrix from disturbance to output) may be a tall or square transfer matrix, and may not have full column rank for linear discrete time invariant systems (LDTIS), the common , and frameworks are not applicable. Based on several novel definitions of norms over a certain subspace, we propose a new problem formulation with both disturbance decoupling and fault sensitivity optimization. It is shown that the solution is an observer determined by a generalized Riccati equation (or Riccati system, alternatively). To be more specific, with this filter, some faults in certain subspace can be completely decoupled from the residual signal, while the others are optimized in terms of fault sensitivity. Furthermore, the completely non-decoupling and decoupling conditions are given. Disturbance rejection based on the solution is discussed. A direct procedure for deriving the fault detection filter in transfer matrix form is also proposed. Finally, some potential further research problems are outlined
A review of convex approaches for control, observation and safety of linear parameter varying and Takagi-Sugeno systems
This paper provides a review about the concept of convex systems based on Takagi-Sugeno, linear parameter varying (LPV) and quasi-LPV modeling. These paradigms are capable of hiding the nonlinearities by means of an equivalent description which uses a set of linear models interpolated by appropriately defined weighing functions. Convex systems have become very popular since they allow applying extended linear techniques based on linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) to complex nonlinear systems. This survey aims at providing the reader with a significant overview of the existing LMI-based techniques for convex systems in the fields of control, observation and safety. Firstly, a detailed review of stability, feedback, tracking and model predictive control (MPC) convex controllers is considered. Secondly, the problem of state estimation is addressed through the design of proportional, proportional-integral, unknown input and descriptor observers. Finally, safety of convex systems is discussed by describing popular techniques for fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control (FTC).Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version

The majorfocus in this study is on the handling of model uncertainties andunknown inputs. In fact, the vehicle lateral model is affectedby several parameter variations such as longitudinal velocity,cornering stiffnesses coefficients and unknown inputs like windgust disturbances. Cornering stiffness parameters variation isconsidered to be unknown but bounded with known compactset. Their effect is addressed by generating intervals for theresiduals based on the zonotope representation of all possiblevalues. The developed fault detection procedure has been testedusing real driving data acquired from a prototype vehicle.Index Terms— Robust fault detection, interval models,zonotopes, set-membership, switched uncertain systems, LMIs,input-to-state stability, arbitrary switching.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
A Tractable Fault Detection and Isolation Approach for Nonlinear Systems with Probabilistic Performance
This article presents a novel perspective along with a scalable methodology
to design a fault detection and isolation (FDI) filter for high dimensional
nonlinear systems. Previous approaches on FDI problems are either confined to
linear systems or they are only applicable to low dimensional dynamics with
specific structures. In contrast, shifting attention from the system dynamics
to the disturbance inputs, we propose a relaxed design perspective to train a
linear residual generator given some statistical information about the
disturbance patterns. That is, we propose an optimization-based approach to
robustify the filter with respect to finitely many signatures of the
nonlinearity. We then invoke recent results in randomized optimization to
provide theoretical guarantees for the performance of the proposed filer.
Finally, motivated by a cyber-physical attack emanating from the
vulnerabilities introduced by the interaction between IT infrastructure and
power system, we deploy the developed theoretical results to detect such an
intrusion before the functionality of the power system is disrupted
A review on analysis and synthesis of nonlinear stochastic systems with randomly occurring incomplete information

The well-known types of incomplete information include parameter uncertainties and norm-bounded nonlinearities. Recently, in response to the development of network technologies, the phenomenon of randomly occurring incomplete information has become more and more prevalent. Such a phenomenon typically appears in a networked environment. Examples include, but are not limited to, randomly occurring uncertainties, randomly occurring nonlinearities, randomly occurring saturation, randomly missing measurements and randomly occurring quantization. Randomly occurring incomplete information, if not properly handled, would seriously deteriorate the performance of a control system. In this paper, we aim to survey some recent advances on the analysis and synthesis problems for nonlinear stochastic systems with randomly occurring incomplete information. The developments of the filtering, control and fault detection problems are systematically reviewed. Latest results on analysis and synthesis of nonlinear stochastic systems are discussed in great detail. In addition, various distributed filtering technologies over sensor networks are highlighted. Finally, some concluding remarks are given and some possible future research directions are pointed out. © 2012 Hongli Dong et al.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61273156, 61134009, 61273201, 61021002, and 61004067, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the UK under Grant GR/S27658/01, the Royal Society of the UK, the National Science Foundation of the USA under Grant No. HRD-1137732, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of German
Analysis, filtering, and control for Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models in networked systems
Copyright © 2015 Sunjie Zhang et al. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.The fuzzy logic theory has been proven to be effective in dealing with various nonlinear systems and has a great success in industry applications. Among different kinds of models for fuzzy systems, the so-called Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model has been quite popular due to its convenient and simple dynamic structure as well as its capability of approximating any smooth nonlinear function to any specified accuracy within any compact set. In terms of such a model, the performance analysis and the design of controllers and filters play important roles in the research of fuzzy systems. In this paper, we aim to survey some recent advances on the T-S fuzzy control and filtering problems with various network-induced phenomena. The network-induced phenomena under consideration mainly include communication delays, packet dropouts, signal quantization, and randomly occurring uncertainties (ROUs). With such network-induced phenomena, the developments on T-S fuzzy control and filtering issues are reviewed in detail. In addition, some latest results on this topic are highlighted. In the end, conclusions are drawn and some possible future research directions are pointed out.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61134009, 61329301, 11301118 and 61174136, the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province of China under Grant BK20130017, the Fundamental Research Funds for the Central Universities of China under Grant CUSF-DH-D-2013061, the Royal Society of the U.K., and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany
Framework for state and unknown input estimation of linear time-varying systems
The design of unknown-input decoupled observers and filters requires the
assumption of an existence condition in the literature. This paper addresses an
unknown input filtering problem where the existence condition is not satisfied.
Instead of designing a traditional unknown input decoupled filter, a
Double-Model Adaptive Estimation approach is extended to solve the unknown
input filtering problem. It is proved that the state and the unknown inputs can
be estimated and decoupled using the extended Double-Model Adaptive Estimation
approach without satisfying the existence condition. Numerical examples are
presented in which the performance of the proposed approach is compared to
methods from literature.Comment: This paper has been accepted by Automatica. It considers unknown
input estimation or fault and disturbances estimation. Existing approaches
considers the case where the effects of fault and disturbance can be
decoupled. In our paper, we consider the case where the effects of fault and
disturbance are coupled. This approach can be easily extended to nonlinear
system
