This paper considers a sensor fault reconstruction scheme for nonlinear systems, using the sliding mode observer and adaptive observer. The novelty of this contribution is that we consider the disturbances represented in both the state equation and the output equation. Computer simulation experiments are carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design.

This paper deals with sensor faults of aircraft engines under uncertainties using a bank of second-order sliding mode observers (SMOs). In view of the effect of inevitable uncertainties on the fault reconstruction, a method combining H ∞ concepts and linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) is proposed, in which a scaling matrix is designed to minimize the gain of the transfer function matrix from uncertainty to reconstruction. However, robust design generally requires that engine outputs outnumber faults. In the case where the above-mentioned requirement is not satisfied, a bank of sliding mode observers is proposed to ensure the degrees of freedom available in robust design. In specific, each observer corresponds to a certain sensor with the hypothesis that the corresponding sensor will not have faults, to create one degree of design freedom for each observer. After fault occurrence, a large estimation error is expected in the observers with wrong hypothesis, and then a logic module is designed to detect sensor faults and obtain the optimal robust sensor fault reconstruction at the same time. The proposed approach is applied to a nonlinear engine component-level-model (CLM) simulation platform, and a numerical study is performed to validate the effectiveness.

This paper concerns with a fault identification scheme in a class of nonlinear interconnected systems. The decentralized sliding mode observer is recruited for the investigation of position sensor fault or velocity sensor fault. First, a decentralized neural network controller is proposed for the system under fault-free state. The diffeomorphism theory is utilized to construct a nonlinear transformation for subsystem structure. A simple filter is implemented to convert the sensor fault into pseudo-actuator fault scenario. The decentralized sliding mode observer is then presented for multisensor fault identification of reconfigurable manipulators based on Lyapunov stable theory. Finally, two 2-DOF reconfigurable manipulators with different configurations are employed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in numerical simulation. The results demonstrate that one joint’s fault does not affect other joints and the sensor fault can be identified precisely by the proposed decentralized sliding mode observer.

This paper presents a precision fault reconstruction scheme for a class of nonlinear systems involving unknown input disturbances. First, using the coordinate transformation algorithm, the disturbances and faults of the system are fully decoupled. Therefore, it is possible to eliminate the influence of disturbances to the system, namely, better disturbances robustness. On this basis, the design of a sliding mode state observer makes the most genuine reconstruction realizable, instead of estimation of faults. Furthermore, with the equivalent principle of sliding mode variable structure, the precision reconstruction of arbitrary nonlinear faults is achieved. Finally, the applications of fault reconstruction in a third-order nonlinear theoretical model with disturbances and in a single-link robot system, respectively, have demonstrated the validity of the proposed scheme.
