A unified approach to the optimization of fault detection systems

摘要

In this paper, problems of optimizing observer-based fault detection (FD) systems in the sense of increasing the robustness to the unknown inputs and simultaneously enhancing the sensitivity to the faults are studied. The core of the study is the development of an approach that simultaneously solves four optimization Problems. Different algorithms are derived for the application of this approach to the optimal selection of Post-filters as well as optimization of fault detection filters, and to the system with and without structure Constraints. The achieved results also reveal some intersting relationships among the optimization prob- Lems considered. Copyright.
