Finite‐time observer‐based fault detection with nonfragile control design for switched nonlinear networked systems with time‐delays

Abstract

AbstractThe strategy of observer‐based nonfragile control and fault‐detection over finite‐time horizon has been examined for a class of uncertain switched nonlinear networked control systems (NNCSs) contingent with time varying delays inferred by the networks from sensor to controller and controller to actuator. Also, in this study, an observer‐based fault detection control has been designed for the NNCSs. By making use of fault detection control as residual generator, the conveyed fault detection problem is then transformed into attenuation problem. By employing multiple Lyapunov function and average dwell time (ADT) approach, sufficient conditions in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) ensures the finite‐time boundedness (FTB) criterion of the resulting switched NNCSs with a prescribed disturbance attenuation. Subsequently, the preferred LMIs constraints realizes the controller and observer gains. Finally, two numerical examples are proffered to showcase the efficacity of the proposed technique.
