In this paper, a fault-tolerant control method is proposed for quadcopter unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) to account for system uncertainties and actuator faults. A mathematical model of the quadcopter UAV is first introduced when faults occur in actuators. A normal adaptive sliding mode control (NASMC) approach is proposed as a baseline controller to handle the chattering problem and system uncertainties, which does not require information of the upper bound. To improve the performance of the NASMC scheme, radial basis function neural networks are combined with an adaptive scheme to make a quick compensation in presence of system uncertainties and actuator faults. The Lyapunov theory is applied to verify the stability of the proposed methods. The effectiveness of modified ASMC algorithm is compared with that of NASMC using numerical examples under different faulty conditions.

In this article, an adaptive sliding mode control is used in the framework of fault tolerant control to mitigate the effects of actuator faults without requiring the actuator health information. Since unmanned aerial vehicles are being used in multiple fields such as military, surveillance, media, agriculture, communication and trading sector, therefore it is of vital importance to overcome the effects of actuator faults that can decline system performance and can even lead to some serious accidents. The proposed adaptive sliding mode control approach can handle actuator faults directly without requiring any faults information and adaptively adjusts controller gains to maintain acceptable level of performance. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive fault tolerant control scheme, it has been tested in simulations using non-linear Benchmark model of Octorotor system and its performance is compared with the optimal LQR control approach.

In this paper, a backstepping fault-tolerant control based on sliding-mode observer is proposed for the unmanned thrust-vectoring aircraft (UTVA) control. First, the UTVA model with the uncertainty, control surface damage and actuator faults is described, which is divided into fast loop and slow loop. Next, the cascade observers including a high-order SMO and the discontinuous projection adaptive law are proposed to estimate the states with compensating the uncertainty and control surface damage, and the sliding-mode observer is designed to identify actuator faults and estimate fault parameters. Then, the backstepping fault-tolerant control combining the estimation of states and fault parameters is proposed to achieve the global fault-tolerant control, which compensates the uncertainty, control surface damage and actuator faults. Finally, simulation results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness for UTVA.

In this paper, an adaptive sliding mode fault tolerant control (ASMFTC) approach is proposed for a class of nonlinear systems with actuator fault, uncertainty, and external disturbance. Specifically, first, a novel observer is proposed to estimate the state, actuator fault, and external disturbance. Then, by utilising the observed information, a novel output sliding mode observer is constructed. In the control method, an adaptive law and two compensators are designed to attenuate the unknown estimation errors, actuator fault, and disturbance. Furthermore, the reaching ability of the sliding motion is analysed and the H-infinite performance is introduced to ensure the robustness of the system. Finally, a flexible single joint manipulator system and a two-cart system are used to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper proposes fault-tolerant control design for uncertain nonlinear systems described under Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems with local nonlinear models that satisfy the Lipschitz condition. First, by transforming sensor faults as ‘pseudo-actuator’ faults, an adaptive sliding mode observer is designed in order to simultaneously estimate system states, actuator and sensor faults despite the presence of norm-bounded uncertainties. Second, an adaptive sliding mode controller is suggested to provide a solution to stabilize the closed-loop system, even in the event of simultaneous occurrence of faults in actuators and sensors. Next, the main objective of the fault-tolerant control strategy is to compensate for the effects of fault based on the feedback information. Therefore, using the LMI optimization method, sufficient conditions are developed with [Formula: see text] to calculate the gains of the observer and the controller. Then, particular attention is paid to the simultaneous maximization, by convex multi-objective optimization, of the Lipschitz nonlinear constant in Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy modelling and uncertainties attenuation level. The results of the simulation illustrate the effectiveness of our fault-tolerant control approach using a nonlinear inverted pendulum with a cart system.

In this paper, an adaptive sliding model design method is proposed to deal with the asymptotic stabilization problem for a class of fault-tolerant control systems with sensor failures and state time-delays. The considered faults on sensors are assumed to be unknown but depended on the system states without breaching the practical case, while the effects of time delays are also related to the states. For the sake of eliminating the effects of sensor faults and delays, an adaptive sliding mode controller is developed by using the fault signals transmitted by sensors with adjusting some adaptive estimations. Then the asymptotic stability results are ensured by using the proposed static output feedback controller via Lyapunov stability theory. The proposed design technique is finally evaluated in the light of a simulation example.
