摘要

In this paper, a new residual evaluation EF) is proposed for the H-i/H-infinity fault detection filter (FDF). Residuals are projected into the direction of fault, then energy of this projection is adopted as the new EF. Compared with the traditional EF, improvement in FD ability of the new EF is demonstrated rigorously, and a recursive way to calculate it is also proposed under the assumption that fault is slowly time varying. Furthermore, application of this new EF for fault isolation (FI) is discussed, which finally leads to a systematic FDI scheme for a kind of nonlinear systems. Simulations with a nonlinear unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) model validate the proposed method.
