Fault-tolerant control allocation: An Unknown Input Observer based approach with constrained output fault directions

This paper focuses on the use of unknown input observers for detection and isolation of actuator and effector faults with control reconfiguration in overactuated systems. The control allocation actively uses input redundancy in order to make relevant faults observable. The case study of an overactuated marine vessel supports theoretical developments.
