Abstract:

A scheme of multiple faults reconstruction using the fast adaptive unknown input observer (FAUIO) is proposed, which is used for a class of nonlinear systems where the faults enter the state equations via nonlinear functions. A proportional term is used to improve the rapidity of fault reconstruction. Specifically, actuator faults should be decomposed from the nonlinear function and an augmented descriptor system is preliminarily developed by constructing an augmented state composed of system states and sensor faults. Next, an H performance index is employed to prove the robust asymptotically stability via the state estimation error produced by the observer. Then, the problem of solving the designed FAUIO is transformed into a linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) constrained nonlinear optimization problem and solved by using the linear matrix inequality optimization technique, and the multiple faults reconstruction of actuator faults and sensor faults is further realized. Finally, the effectiveness of the developed FAUIO is validated via simulations of a single-link flexible joint robot.

Key words: multiple fault diagnosis, fault reconstruction, fast adaptive unknown input observer (FAUIO), nonlinear systems, linear matrix inequality (LMI)
