Abstract
AbstractIn this article, a fault estimation method is proposed for a class of nonlinear distributed systems, in which the adaptive observer technique is exploited to estimate the parameters related to the fault in the interconnection items. First, we consider the simple case that the interconnection items only contain measurable variables. And then the result will be extended to the case that the interconnection items contain unmeasurable variables. Due to the existing of nonlinear item, the state and parameter estimations cannot be decoupled from each other, which makes the analysis of the convergence of the state and parameter estimations much more difficult. To overcome this problem, by designing of an integral Lyapunov function, and by exploiting the converse theorem of Lyapunov, a sufficient condition for the exponential convergence of the proposed algorithm is derived. Moreover, the detail relationship between the observer gain, Lipschitz parameter of the nonlinear item and the PE level of the estimation system is also derived. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed fault identification scheme.
