Fault detection and isolation has become one of the most important aspects in vehicle control system design. In this paper, a new method for single sensor fault detection and isolation for automotive on-board applications that combines model-based diagnostic and qualitative modeling approach is presented. A depth one algorithm for qualitative identification is given and applied to a electro-brake system.

Fault detection and isolation has become one of the most important aspects in vehicle control system design. In this paper, we present a technique for single sensor fault detection and isolation in automotive on-board applications. It combines model-based diagnostics and a qualitative modeling approach. The proposed method is appealing as it shifts the computational effort from on-line to off-line, making the algorithm suitable for low-cost real-time applications. The methodology can be cast in the framework of discrete-event fault diagnosis. A depth one transition relation algorithm for qualitative identification which guarantees completeness is developed and applied to a 3-degree-of-freedom (DOF) nonlinear vehicle model. The paper concludes with preliminary simulation results showing the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

In this paper, a baseline system which utilizes dual-channel sensor measurements for aircraft engine on-line diagnostics is developed. This system is composed of a linear on-board engine model (LOBEM) and fault detection and isolation (FDI) logic. The LOBEM provides the analytical third channel against which the dual-channel measurements are compared. When the discrepancy among the triplex channels exceeds a tolerance level, the FDI logic determines the cause of the discrepancy. Through this approach, the baseline system achieves the following objectives: 1) anomaly detection, 2) component fault detection, and 3) sensor fault detection and isolation. The performance of the baseline system is evaluated in a simulation environment using faults in sensors and components.
