Robust Fault Detection for Uncertain Delayed Systems With Measurement Outliers Under Stochastic Communication Protocol

In this paper, the robust fault detection (RFD) problem is studied for uncertain networked systems with time delay and measurement outliers under limited communication condition, where the time delay is presumed to occur randomly and the occurrence probability is considered to be uncertain. Specifically, in order to reduce the communication burden, the stochastic communication protocol (SCP) is introduced to adjust the transmission of measurement signals. Moreover, a fault detection filter (FDF) with saturation constraints is constructed to achieve the purpose of properly eliminating possible measurement outliers. Subsequently, a generalized sector condition is utilized to derive the stability criteria of the system on the basis of appropriate Lyapunov functional. In addition, a traditional FDF is also designed to compare with the saturation-constrained FDF. It is shown that the FDF with saturation constraints can properly avoid the influence of outliers on the detection effect. Finally, two simulations are presented to show the superiority and the practicality of the developed saturation-constrained fault detection (FD) filtering algorithm.
