Pressure Sensor Fault Diagnosis by Using Adaptive Robust Observers

The model uncertaint of hydraulic systems is a key issue in observer-based fault diagnosis. In this research, for diagnosing pressure sensor faults in hydraulic systems, we present the application of adaptive robust observers design. For reducing model uncertainty and increasing the feasibility of the fault diagnosis scheme, this paper uses a robust filter and controlled parameter adaption to deal with model uncertainty. Then, according to the fault system model, the fault magnitude of the pressure sensor fault is estimated and the residual variance can be generated for diagnosing the sensor fault. By experiments, the fault diagnosis scheme is proven efficient, which is based on adaptive robust observers. Then, the fault magnitude can be estimated. Copyright (c) 2023 The Authors.
