As the possibility of sensor faults in the vehicle chassis system is higher and influences the vehicle stability, this paper deals with active fault-tolerant control for vehicle with vertical and lateral dynamics. It focuses on the combined control of active suspension system and electronic stability control with sensor faults based on the interaction between vehicle with vertical and lateral dynamics. A 9-degree-of-freedom vehicle integrated model is adopted for accurate control. The aim of the controller is to improve riding comfort when the vehicle is driving straight and improve lateral stability when the vehicle is steering in the presence of external disturbances and sensor faults. First, an H∞-based method is introduced to reconstruct the sensor fault signals, and meanwhile, the method can also observe the unmeasured signals. Based on the reconstruction faults and observed signals, a gain scheduling controller is utilized to guarantee the performance of the integrated model under different driving conditions, and the steering input is chosen as the scheduling parameter. Three different conditions, step steering input, single lane change input, and sensor faults, are considered. The main contributions of this study are as follows: (1) an H∞-based observer was designed for sensor fault estimation of the vertical and lateral integrated model and (2) a gain scheduling controller was designed to improve the performance of the integrated system. Simulations results indicated that the active fault-tolerant controller can reconstruct sensor faults and observe the unmeasured states exactly, and the linear parameter varying framework–based gain scheduling controller ensures the system performance adaptively.

Active Fault Tolerant Control

The present paper addresses the problem of robust active fault tolerant control (FTC) for uncertain linear parameter varying (LPV) systems with simultaneous actuator and sensor faults. First, fault estimation (FE) scheme is designed based on two adaptive sliding mode observers (SMO). Second, using the information of simultaneous system state, actuator, and sensor faults, two active FTC are conceived for LPV systems described with polytopic representation as state feedback control and sliding mode control. The stability of closed-loop systems is guaranteed by mean of H∞ performance; sufficient conditions of the proposed methods are derived in LMIs formulation. The performance effectiveness of FTC design is illustrated using a VTOL aircraft system with both sensor and actuator faults as well as disturbances. In addition, comparative simulations are provided to verify the benefits of the proposed methods.

With the rapid development of computer science and information and communication technology (ICT), increasingly intelligent, and complex systems have been applied to industries as well as human life. Fault-tolerant control (FTC) has, therefore, become one of the most important topics attracting attention from both engineers and researchers to maintain system performances when faults occur. The ultimate goal of this study was to develop a sensor fault-tolerant control (SFTC) to enhance the robust position tracking control of a class of electro-hydraulic actuators called mini motion packages (MMPs), which are widely used for applications requiring large force-displacement ratios. First, a mathematical model of the MMP system is presented, which is then applied in the position control process of the MMP system. Here, a well-known proportional, integrated and derivative (PID) control algorithm is employed to ensure the positional response to the reference position. Second, an unknown input observer (UIO) is designed to estimate the state vector and sensor faults using a linear matrix inequality (LMI) optimization algorithm. Then an SFTC is used to deal with sensor faults of the MMP system. The SFTC is formed of the fault detection and the fault compensation with the goal of determining the location, time of occurrence, and magnitude of the faults in the fault signal compensation process. Finally, numerical simulations were run to demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed approach compared to traditional tracking control.

For the chattering problem in the traditional sliding mode observer-based fault estimation, a second order sliding mode observer based on the Super-twisting algorithm was proposed. In order to avoid the cumbersome process of proving the stability of the Super-twisting algorithm, a Lyapunov function was adopted. An active fault tolerant control law was designed based on the fault estimation. Finally, simulation show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Active Fault Tolerant Control

Fault-tolerant control is becoming an interesting topic because of its reliability and safety. This paper reports an active fault-tolerant control method for a quadcopter unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to handle actuator faults, disturbances, and input constraints. A robust fault diagnosis based on the H ∞ scheme was designed to estimate the magnitude of a time-varying fault in the presence of disturbances with unknown upper bounds. Once the fault estimation was complete, a fault-tolerant control scheme was proposed for the attitude system, using adaptive sliding mode backstepping control to accommodate the actuator faults, despite actuator saturation limitation and disturbances. The Lyapunov theory was applied to prove the robustness and stability of the closed-loop system under faulty operation. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the fault diagnosis scheme and proposed controller for handling actuator faults.

In this paper, a novel asymptotic fuzzy adaptive nonlinear fault tolerant control (FTC) scheme is presented for the under-actuated dynamics of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) subject to diverse sensor faults. The proposed FTC approach can deal with both additive sensor faults (bias, drift, loss of accuracy) and multiplicative sensor fault (loss of effectiveness). The overall dynamics is separated into position loop and attitude loop for FTC controllers design. Combining uncertain parameters and external disturbances, the four types of faults occurring in velocity sensors and Euler angle rate sensors are transformed equivalently into the unknown nonlinear function vectors and uncertain control gains. Fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the lumped nonlinear functions, and adaptive parameters are estimated online. Nussbaum technique is introduced to deal with the unknown control gains. For both control loops, FTC controllers are designed via command filter-based backstepping approach, in which sliding mode control is introduced to establish asymptotic stability. All tracking error signals of the closed-loop control system are proved to converge to zero asymptotically. Finally, simulation comparisons with other methods demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed FTC approach for quadrotor UAV with sensor faults.
