Bibliographical review on reconfigurable fault-tolerant control systems

Most of the signal processing that we will study in this course involves local operations on a signal, namely transforming the signal by applying linear combinations of values in the neighborhood of each sample point. You are familiar with such operations from Calculus, namely, taking derivatives and you are also familiar with this from optics namely blurring a signal. We will be looking at sampled signals only. Let's start with a few basic examples. Local difference Suppose we have a 1D image and we take the local difference of intensities, DI(x) = 1 2 (I(x + 1) − I(x − 1)) which give a discrete approximation to a partial derivative. (We compute this for each x in the image.) What is the effect of such a transformation? One key idea is that such a derivative would be useful for marking positions where the intensity changes. Such a change is called an edge. It is important to detect edges in images because they often mark locations at which object properties change. These can include changes in illumination along a surface due to a shadow boundary, or a material (pigment) change, or a change in depth as when one object ends and another begins. The computational problem of finding intensity edges in images is called edge detection. We could look for positions at which DI(x) has a large negative or positive value. Large positive values indicate an edge that goes from low to high intensity, and large negative values indicate an edge that goes from high to low intensity. Example Suppose the image consists of a single (slightly sloped) edge:

Linear systems

Fault detection, isolation, and reconfiguration (FDIR) is an important and challenging problem in many engineering applications and continues to be an active area of research in the control community. This paper presents a survey of the various model-based FDIR methods developed in the last decade. In the paper, the FDIR problem is divided into the fault detection and isolation (FDI) step, and the controller reconfiguration step. For FDI, we discuss various model-based techniques to generate residuals that are robust to noise, unknown disturbance, and model uncertainties, as well as various statistical techniques of testing the residuals for abrupt changes (or faults). We then discuss various techniques of implementing reconfigurable control strategy in response to faults.

A Survey of Fault Detection, Isolation, and Reconfiguration Methods

The increasing complexity of engineering systems has sparked increasing interest in multidisciplinary optimization (MDO). This paper presents a survey of recent publications in the field of aerospace where interest in MDO has been particularly intense. The two main challenges of MDO are computational expense and organizational complexity. Accordingly the survey is focused on various ways different researchers use to deal with these challenges. The survey is organized by a breakdown of MDO into its conceptual components. Accordingly, the survey includes sections on Mathematical Modeling, Design- oriented Analysis, Approximation Concepts, Optimization Procedures, System Sensitivity, and Human Interface. With the authors'' main expertise being in the structures area, the bulk of the references focus on the interaction of the structures discipline with other disciplines. In particular, two sections at the end focus on two such interactions that have recently been pursued with a particular vigor: Simultaneous Optimization of Structures and Aerodynamics, and Simultaneous Optimization of Structures Combined With Active Control.

Multidisciplinary Aerospace Design Optimization: Survey of Recent Developments

Direct adaptive-state feedback control schemes are developed for linear time-invariant plants with actuator failures with characterizations that some of the plant inputs are stuck at some fixed or varying values which cannot be influenced by control action. Conditions and controller structures for achieving plant-model state matching in the presence of actuator failures are derived. Adaptive laws are designed for updating the controller parameters when both the plant parameters and actuator-failure parameters are unknown. Closed-loop stability and asymptotic-state tracking are ensured. Simulation results show that desired system performance is achieved with the developed adaptive actuator failure compensation control designs.

Adaptive state feedback and tracking control of systems with actuator failures

Adaptive actuator failure compensation for nonlinear MIMO systems with an aircraft control application

This paper considers the problem of three-axis attitude stabilization of a rigid spacecraft. A nonlinear control law which uses the feedback of the unit quaternion and the measured angular velocities is proposed and is shown to provide global asymptotic stability. The control law does not require the knowledge of the system parameters and is, therefore, robust to modeling errors. The significance of the control law is that it can be used for large-angle maneuvers with guaranteed stability. >

Robust attitude stabilization of spacecraft using nonlinear quaternion feedback

An adaptive control scheme using output feedback for output tracking is developed for systems with unknown actuator failures. Such actuator failures are characterized by some unknown inputs stuck at some unknown fixed values at unknown time instants. An effective output feedback controller structure is proposed for actuator failure compensation. When implemented with true matching parameters, the controller achieves desired plant-model output matching. When implemented with adaptive parameter estimates, the controller achieves asymptotic output tracking. A stable adaptive law is derived for parameter adaptation in the presence of parameter uncertainties. Closed-loop signal boundedness and asymptotic output tracking, despite the uncertainties in actuator failures and plant parameters, are ensured analytically and verified by simulation results.
