A fault tolerant control framework for periodic switched non-linear systems

An observer-based fault tolerant control (FTC) framework is proposed for a class of periodic switched non-linear systems (PSNS) without full state measurements. Two kinds of faults are considered: continuous faults that affect each mode during its dwell period; and discrete faults that affect the switching sequence. Under the average dwell time scheme, the proposed FTC framework can maintain the stability of overall PSNS in spite of these two kinds of fault. A switched reluctance motor example is taken to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.     

Simultaneous reduced-order control and fault detection for discrete-time switched systems with relaxed persistent dwell time regularity

This paper focuses on the problem of simultaneous control and fault detection (FD) for discrete-time switched systems. The main goal is to develop a control/detection unit (CDU) associated with a switching law to control the system and detect faults simultaneously. When the switched systems are with partial measurable states, we directly use these states to construct partial control and FD signals. Next, the reduced-order CDU is designed to generate the other control and FD signals. Compared with existing results based on full-order CDU, the proposed results lead to less conservatism and reduce design complexity. The switching law is constructed in the frame of persistent dwell time (PDT) switching. A novel switching number constraint condition is introduced, which further relaxes the restrictions on the dwell time of switching processes of PDT. The less restriction on dwell time degrades the performance requirement of each subsystem and upgrades the degree of freedom for switching law design. Based on the proposed results, a class of nonweighted performance indexes is introduced to characterize the fault sensitivity and robustness. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated by an example.     

Fault detection for switched nonlinear systems under asynchronous switching

Asynchronous switching between switched system and associated filter or controller frequently occurs in several applications. In this article, the fault detection problem for a class of switched nonlinear systems with asynchronous switching is addressed. To model the switched system behaviour under asynchronous switching, two working modes are adopted to facilitate the studies on the issue. Then, based on average dwell time approach, a fault detection filter is developed via solving LMIs. Furthermore, it is proved that the fault detection problem under synchronous switching is only a particular case of our results for asynchronous switching. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of proposed results.

Learning-Based Switched Reliable Control of Cyber-Physical Systems With Intermittent Communication Faults

This study deals with reliable control problems in data-driven cyber-physical systems(CPSs) with intermittent communication faults, where the faults may be caused by bad or broken communication devices and/or cyber attackers. To solve them, a watermark-based anomaly detector is proposed, where the faults are divided to be either detectable or undetectable.Secondly, the fault's intermittent characteristic is described by the average dwell-time(ADT)-like concept, and then the reliable control issues, under the undetectable faults to the detector, are converted into stabilization issues of switched systems. Furthermore,based on the identifier-critic-structure learning algorithm, a datadriven switched controller with a prescribed-performance-based switching law is proposed, and by the ADT approach, a tolerated fault set is given. Additionally, it is shown that the presented switching laws can improve the system performance degradation in asynchronous intervals, where the degradation is caused by the fault-maker-triggered switching rule, which is unknown for CPS operators. Finally, an illustrative example validates the proposed method.

Robust control and fault detection for continuous‐time switched systems subject to a dwell time constraint

This paper is concerned with the simultaneous robust control and fault detection problem for continuous‐time switched systems subject to a dwell time constraint. To meet the control and detection objectives under the constraint, the controller/detectors matching different time intervals are first constructed in an output feedback framework. A state‐dependent switching law that obeys the dwell time constraint is then designed such that the closed‐loop switched system is asymptotically stable and also with the robust and detection performance. Further, the proposed switching law is dependent only on the partial measurable states of the closed‐loop system, which is applicable when the states of system mode are fully unavailable. Thus, our result extends the existing ones in state‐dependent switching and state‐feedback frameworks. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Bumpless switching control for switched systems with partial actuator failures

This study is concerned with the bumpless transfer problem for switched systems with partial actuator failures, in order to obtain smooth system performance output transition. Taking into account that the system requires a controller switching from current sub-controller to a fault-tolerant sub-controller after actuator fault. And bumpless transfer for control input cannot be traditionally designed when the actuator fault occurs, while performance smoothing can be considered and it is actually the ultimate goal of bumpless transfer. Specifically, the actuator fault model is firstly established and partial actuator fault is considered. Then, the system performance output signal is deemed as the main design variable of bumpless transfer, and closed-loop control systems both previous and after controller switching are constructed. Moreover, by using model matching thought and the adaptive sliding mode control technique, a bumpless transfer compensator design strategy is given to drive the performance output variable (after controller switching) to track the one of reference model. At last, simulation results of numeric and application examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed bumpless transfer strategy.

Event‐triggered fault detection for switched systems with time‐varying sojourn probabilities

In this paper, a codesign strategy of an event‐triggered scheme and a fault detection filter (FDF) is developed for the networked switched systems with delayed measurements. A novel switching rule is proposed to better describe the switching behavior in a real system, under which the probability staying in each subsystem is time varying and results in a piecewise continuous system dynamics. An event‐triggered strategy based on the relative error with respect to the delayed measurement signal is established to reduce the communication burden. Our attention is concentrated on the construction of an event‐triggered fault detection technique for the proposed switched system with delayed measurements. Combining the stochastic analysis techniques and the average dwell time (ADT) method, a sufficient condition is obtained to guarantee the finite‐time boundedness of the generated residual system, the sensitivity of the residual signal to faults, and the disturbance attenuation of the switched system to external disturbances. Based on the established condition, a codesign strategy is developed to get the event‐triggered threshold and the FDF gain. Finally, two simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed design method.     

Integrated fault detection and control for LPV systems

This paper studies the integrated fault detection and control problem for linear parameter‐varying systems. A parameter‐dependent detector/controller is designed to generate two signals: residual and control signals that are used to detect faults and simultaneously meet some control objectives. The low‐frequency faults and certain finite‐frequency disturbances are considered. With the aid of the newly developed linearization techniques, the design methods are presented in terms of solutions to a set of linear matrix inequalities. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Adaptive fuzzy output-feedback fault-tolerant tracking control of a class of uncertain nonlinear switched systems

ABSTRACT

This paper considers the output-feedback fault-tolerant tracking control problem for a class of uncertain nonlinear switched systems with nonlinear faults and strict-feedback form, where the faults which are nonaffine occur on the actuator. As a kind of specialised function approximating tool, fuzzy logic systems (FLSs), are employed to approximate the unknown smooth nonlinear functions. A switched fuzzy observer is designed to address the problem of unmeasurable states, filtered signals are used to address algebraic loop problem and the average dwell time (ADT) method is further utilised to prove the stability of the resulting closed-loop systems under a type of slowly switching signals. Based on the backstepping recursive design technique and Lyapunov function method, an adaptive fuzzy output-feedback control scheme is developed. The developed control method can ensure all the signals are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded (SGUUB) and the system output tracks the reference signal tightly even if unknown fault occurs. A simulation carried on an example demonstrates the validity of the obtained control scheme.     

Stabilization of Enforced Positive Switched Linear Systems with Bounded Controls

This paper is concerned with the controller synthesis issue for enforced positive switched linear systems via output feedback. First, the stabilization problem is studied with output feedback under average dwell time switching signal, and the controllers we proposed guarantee stability and positivity of the closed-loop systems. Second, the output feedback stabilization issue is investigated by introducing special form of diagonal matrices, and the constraints on states and control inputs are solved based on limited initial conditions. Then, the derived conditions are described via linear programming, also extending the theoretical findings to constrained output issue. Finally, the simulation results demonstrate the feasibility of the control strategy.

     

Robust Output Feedback Stabilization of Switched Nonlinear Systems with Average Dwell Time

For some switched nonlinear systems, stabilization can be achieved under arbitrary switching with state feedback control. Due to switching zero dynamics, output feedback stabilization for some switched nonlinear systems needs dwell time between switching to guarantee system stability. In this paper, we consider a class of switched nonlinear systems with unknown parameters and unknown switching signals. We design a robust output feedback controller that stabilizes the system under a class of switching signals with average dwell time (ADT) where the value of ADT can be reduced by adjusting the control gain. For some special cases, common quadratic Lyapunov functions of the closed‐loop systems can be found and the value of ADT is further relaxed. Some examples and simulations are provided to validate the results.

Design of two-layer switching rule for stabilization of switched linear systems with mismatched switching

A two-layer switching architecture and a two-layer switching rule for stabilization of switched linear control systems are proposed, under which the mismatched switching between switched systems and their candidate hybrid controllers can be allowed. In the low layer, a state-dependent switching rule with a dwell time constraint to exponentially stabilize switched linear systems is given; in the high layer, supervisory conditions on the mismatched switching frequency and the mismatched switching ratio are presented, under which the closed-loop switched system is still exponentially stable in case of the candidate controller switches delay with respect to the subsystems. Different from the traditional switching rule, the two-layer switching architecture and switching rule have robustness, which in some extend permit mismatched switching between switched subsystems and their candidate controllers.
