Abstract
Summary
Fault estimation for classical nonlinear Lipschitz systems has been subject to several research works. So far, much less interest has been given to the more generalized class of systems, namely, one‐sided Lipchitz systems. Dealing with component faults and actuator faults, only very few works have been done to reconstruct these types of faults for this new class of systems. A major limitation of the previous works is that the fault vector to be estimated there does not give any information about the actual faulty physical parameters of the system, so component faults and actuator faults are not distinguishable. In this paper, a set of possible faulty parameters in the system is estimated. Component faults and actuator faults are separated and distinguished. The effectiveness of the proposed method is shown through simulations for a numerical example.
