Robust sensor fault reconstruction for Lipschitz nonlinear systems (Q541433): Difference between revisions

Summary: We extend existing theory on robust nonlinear observer design to the class of nonlinear Lipschitz systems where the systems are subject to sensor faults and disturbances. The designed observer is used for robust reconstruction of fault signals. Allowing bounded unknown disturbances to model system uncertainties, it is shown that by adjusting a design parameter we can trade off between fault reconstruction and disturbance attenuation. An LMI procedure solvable using commercially available softwares is presented. Two examples are presented to illustrate the application of the results.
