Decentralized Adaptive Output Feedback Fault Detection and Control for Uncertain Nonlinear Interconnected Systems.

This paper studies the problem of decentralized adaptive output feedback fault detection and control for a class of uncertain nonlinear interconnected systems. The K-filters are designed to estimate the unmeasured state variables of the system. Moreover, the built-in noise dampening filters are introduced to attenuate the influence caused by the measurement noises. Then the fault detection scheme is proposed by designing the residual and threshold signals. Subsequently, by using the backstepping design method, the decentralized switched control strategies are proposed with the help of the neural network approximation technique. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, it is proved strictly that all signals of the resulting closed-loop system are bounded. Finally, a simulation example is presented to verify the effectiveness of the theoretical result.
