Robust Fault Detection by Means of Echo State Neural Network

This paper deals with the application of Echo State Network (ESN) model to robust fault diagnosis of the Twin Rotor Aero-Dynamical System (TRAS) through modeling the uncertainty of the neural model with the so-called Model Error Modeling method (MEM). The work describes the modeling process of the plant and scenarios in which the system is under influence of the unknown fault. In such fault scenarios the ESN model together with MEM are used to form the uncertainty bands. If the system output exceeds the uncertain region the fault occurrence is signalized. All data used in experiments are collected from the TRAS through the Matlab/Simulink environment.
