In this paper we investigate the fault estimation problem against local unknown nonlinear dynamics, sensor and actuator faults for a class of Takagi–Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy systems. In addition, the exogenous disturbances and measurement noise are considered, which are presented in the operation of the systems and are various and independent of the systems. A novel double-level observer is designed to estimate the system states and faults. Compared with the current research results, the proposed observer has a wider range of application. By designing a fuzzy augmented system and a Kalman filter as the first-level observer, the estimations of system states, sensor faults and actuator faults can be obtained simultaneously. The second-level observer can estimate the unknown nonlinear dynamic function by establishing generalized fuzzy hyperbolic model. The robust stability of the estimation error systems is considered by H∞ performance. Finally, three simulation examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed fault estimation method.

This paper deals with the fault observer and fault-tolerant controller design for singular Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy systems subject to actuator faults. First, a novel proportional-integral observer is constructed to estimate the system states and faults. Sufficient conditions for the existence of the proposed observer are given in linear matrix inequality (LMI) terms. Furthermore, based on the state and fault estimation (FE), a fault-tolerant controller (FTC) is designed to effectively accommodate the influence of fault upon state and ensure that the closed-loop system is stable. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of the presented method.

In this paper, a robust fuzzy observer-based tracking controller for continuous-time nonlinear systems presented by Takagi–Sugeno (TS) models with unmeasurable premise variables, is synthesized. Using the H∞ norm and Lyapunov approach, the control design for TS fuzzy systems with both unmeasurable premises and system states is developed to guarantee tracking performance of closed loop systems. Sufficient relaxed conditions for synthesis of the fuzzy observer and the fuzzy control are driven in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) constraints. The proposed method allows simplifying the design procedure and gives the observer and controller gains in only one step. Numerical simulation on a two tank system is provided to illustrate the tracking control design procedure and to confirm the efficiency of the proposed method.

This paper investigates the problem of observer design for simultaneous states and faults estimation for a class of discrete-time descriptor linear models in presence of actuator and sensor faults. The idea of the present result is based on the second equivalent form of implicit model [1] which permits to separate the differential and algebraic equations in the considered singular model, and the use of an explicit augmented model structure. At that stage, an observer is built to estimate simultaneously the unknown states, the actuator faults, and the sensor faults. Next, the explicit structure of the augmented model is established. Then, an observer is built to estimate simultaneously the unknown states, the actuator faults, and the sensor faults. By using the Lyapunov approach, the convergence of the state estimation error of the augmented system is analyzed, and the observer’s gain matrix is achieved by solving only one linear matrix inequality (LMI). At long last, an illustrative model is given to show the performance and capability of the proposed strategy.

In this paper, an actuator fault estimation technique is proposed for quadcopters under uncertainties. In previous studies, matching conditions were required for the observer design, but they were found to be complex for solving linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). To overcome these limitations, in this study, an improved intermediate estimator algorithm was applied to the quadcopter model, which can be used to estimate actuator faults and system states. The system stability was validated using Lyapunov theory. It was shown that system errors are uniformly ultimately bounded. To increase the accuracy of the proposed fault estimation algorithm, a magnitude order balance method was applied. Experiments were verified with four scenarios to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Two first scenarios were compared to show the effectiveness of the magnitude order balance method. The remaining scenarios were described to test the reliability of the presented method in the presence of multiple actuator faults. Different from previous studies on observer-based fault estimation, this proposal not only can estimate the fault magnitude of the roll, pitch, yaw, and thrust channel, but also can estimate the loss of control effectiveness of each actuator under uncertainties.
