Abstract:

The problem of robust H-infinity fault-tolerant control against sensor failures for a class of uncertain descriptor systems via dynamical compensators is considered. Based on H-infinity theory in descriptor systems, a sufficient condition for the existence of dynamical compensators with H-infinity fault-tolerant function is derived and expressions for the gain matrices in the compensators are presented. The dynamical compensator guarantees that the resultant colsed-loop system is admissible; furthermore, it maintains certain H-infinity norm performance in the normal condition as well as in the event of sensor failures and parameter uncertainties. A numerical example shows the effect of the proposed method.
