摘要：AbstractIn this paper, an actuator fault estimation problem is tackled, based on the LPV approach. First, the actuator fault is modeled in the form of a multiplicative fault by using a constant coefficient representing the loss of efficiency of the actuator’s power α. Therefore, the estimation of a time varying faulty actuator can be transformed into the estimation of a constant coefficient α. Then, the faulty system is rewritten in the form of a switched LPV system. The coefficient α and the system states are estimated using an extended switched observer. The stability and performance of the observer is ensured considering a switched time-dependent Lyapunov function. The observer gains are derived based on LMI solutions for polytopic switched systems. Some simulation results are presented that show the effectiveness of this approach.
