Fault diagnosis with short circuit for linear analog networks

摘要

A novel method to prepare the fault dictionary for the short circuit faults in linear analog networks is proposed. In this method, the whole dictionary can be made with computational complexity O(n/sup 3/), where n denotes the number of nodes in the network. The authors discuss the volume of the dictionary, and an alternative fault diagnosis algorithm is presented, in which memories for the dictionary can be reduced to 2/m/sup 2/ times compared with the conventional algorithm, where m is the number of accessible nodes.
