Distributed fault estimation with randomly occurring uncertainties over sensor networks
This paper is concerned with the distributed fault estimation problem for a class of uncertain stochastic systems over sensor networks. The norm-bounded uncertainty enters into the system in a random way governed by a set of Bernoulli distributed white sequence. The purpose of the addressed problem is to design distributed fault estimators, via available output measurements from not only the individual sensor, but also its neighbouring sensors, such that the fault estimation error converges to zero exponentially in the mean square while the disturbance rejection attenuation is constrained to a give level by means of the H∞ performance index. Intensive stochastic analysis is carried out to obtain sufficient conditions for ensuring the exponential stability as well as prescribed H∞ performance for the overall estimation error dynamics. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed fault estimation technique in this paper.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China [ grant number 61329301], [grant number 61422301], [grant number 61374127]; the Outstanding Youth Science Foundation of Heilongjiang Province [grant number JC2015016]; the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany
