A Fault Detection filter design method for a class of linear time-varying systems

In this paper we propose a Fault Detection (FD) filter design method for linear parameter varying (LPV) systems. The FD filter is an optimal Hinfin Luenberger observer synthesized by minimizing frequency conditions which ensure guaranteed levels of disturbance rejection and fault detection. Via the Bounded Real Lemma (BRL) and the Separation Principle the design method is formulated as a convex LMI optimization problem. The resulting residual generator is parameter-dependent and uses the plant parameter assumed measurable on-line. Finally, a FD threshold logic is proposed in order to reduce the generation of false alarms. The effectiveness of the design technique is illustrated via a numerical example.
