Passive Fault Tolerant Control of Piecewise Affine Systems Based on H Infinity Synthesis

International audienceIn this paper we design a passive fault tolerant controller against actuator faults for discretetime piecewise affine (PWA) systems. By using dissipativity theory and H analysis, fault tolerant state feedback controller design is expressed as a set of Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs). In the current paper, the PWA system switches not only due to the state but also due to the control input. The method is applied on a large scale livestock ventilation model
