Abstract
This paper is concerned with the problems on simultaneous actuator and sensor fault estimation as well as the fault-tolerant control for a class of Markovian jump systems subjected to faults and disturbances. Firstly, the original system is converted into a descriptor system by extending the sensor faults as auxiliary states. Secondly, an adaptive observer is designed for the descriptor system, in which the actuator faults are adjusted by the designed adaptive law. Based on the estimations of the actuator faults, a fault-tolerant control strategy is therefore proposed to stabilize the closed-loop system against actuator faults, sensor faults and disturbances. Sufficient conditions for the existence of the observer and controller are derived in accordance with linear matrix inequalities. Finally, some practical examples are delivered to illustrate the validation and effectiveness of the proposed method.
