Learning Observer-Based Sensor Fault-Tolerant Control of Distributed Generation in an Islanded Microgrid for Bus Voltage Stability Enhancement.

In order to improve robust operating performance and enhance bus voltage stability, a learning observer-based fault-tolerant control strategy is proposed for the distributed generation in islanded microgrid with sensor faults and uncertain disturbances. Firstly, the output feedback control theory and the linear matrix inequality method are used to design closed-loop controller for the voltage source inverter of distributed generation; secondly, a fault-tolerant model and control structure of the distributed generation in an islanded microgrid with sensor faults is analyzed. By employing the fault output signal conversion filter and proportional derivative type learning observer, the online estimation and real-time compensation of the sensor fault signal are realized. Thirdly, the system synthesis of output feedback control and fault-tolerant control is completed. Finally, the multi-scenario sensor fault scheme simulation experiment verifies that the proposed control strategy has strong sensor fault tolerance and adaptability.

Composite fault reconstruction and fault-tolerant control design for cyber-physical systems: An interval type-2 fuzzy approach.

This article scrutinizes the stabilization and fault reconstruction issues for interval type-2 fuzzy-based cyber-physical systems with actuator faults, deception attacks and external disturbances. The primary objective of this research is to formulate the learning observer system with the interval type-2 fuzzy technique that reconstructs the actuator faults as well as the immeasurable states of the addressed fuzzy based model. Further, the information of reconstructed actuator faults is incorporated in the developed controller with the imperfect premise variables for ensuring the stabilization of the system under consideration. At the same time, the H∞ technique is employed to reduce the impact of external disturbances in the considered model. In addition to that, the deception attacks are represented as a stochastic variable that satisfies the Bernoulli distributions. On the ground of this, a set of sufficient criteria is deduced in the context of linear matrix inequalities to affirm the stability of the addressed systems. Furthermore, the requisite gain matrices are computed by resolving the obtained linear matrix inequality based stability criteria. At last, two simulation examples, including the mass-spring-damper system are exhibited to demonstrate the usefulness of analytical findings of the developed strategy.

Sensor fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control for the multiple manipulator synchronized control system.

In this paper, a fault diagnosis (FD) and fault tolerant control (FTC) scheme is proposed for the leader-follower based multiple manipulator system with sensor fault under network communication topology. The learning observer is designed to obtain the fault information when the time-varying sensor fault occurs in follower manipulators. The synchronization error between the leader manipulator and the follower manipulator is defined based on the graph theory. The distributed multiple manipulator synchronization controller is designed for each follower manipulator which contains the value of fault estimation and RBF neural network based approximator. Correspondingly, the stability analysis of the error system is analyzed by the Lyapunov stability theorem. Finally, a simulation example is given to prove the effectiveness of the algorithm.
