Simultaneous optimization of tracking performance and accommodation of sensor faults

From MaRDI portal





A fault accommodation algorithm in which the indices of dynamic performance and noise rejection are continuously optimized as the sensor reliabilities vary is elaborated. At first the simultaneous minimization of a measure of dynamic performance (with respect to the system input and primary variable) and maximization of noise rejection (by minimizing the variance of the primary output variable) is applied to the system in the case when no auxiliary output measurement is available. It is shown that the solutions are attainable simultaneously without the need for a trade-off between the dynamic performance and noise rejection. Then the approach is extended to systems with one primary and an arbitrary number of auxiliary outputs. Using the results of both cases, an attractive (sensor fault-accommodation by stabilizing interpolation) algorithm is derived which gives (due to the additional constraints on the interpolation conditions) sub-optimal noise rejection and optimal dynamic performance. Simulation examples show that for some degree of sub-optimality in noise rejection very significant computational gains can be obtained.
