Abstract

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the fault diagnosis problem for general linear heterodirectional hyperbolic ODE–PDE systems. A systematic solution is presented for additive time-varying actuator, process and sensor faults in the presence of disturbances. The faults and disturbances are represented by the solutions of finite-dimensional ODEs, which allow to take a large class of signals into account. For disturbances, that are only bounded, a threshold for secured fault diagnosis is derived. By applying integral transformations to the system an algebraic fault detection equation to detect faults in finite time is obtained. The corresponding integral kernels result from the realization of a finite-time transition between a non-equilibrium initial state and a vanishing final state of a hyperbolic ODE–PDE system. For this new challenging problem, a systematic trajectory planning approach is presented. In particular, this problem is facilitated by mapping the kernel equations into backstepping coordinates and tracing the solution of the transition problem back to a simple trajectory planning. The fault diagnosis for a 4 × 4 heterodirectional hyperbolic system coupled with a second order ODE demonstrates the results of the paper.
