A fast adaptive fault estimation (FAFE) algorithm for LPV systems module, based on an adaptive observer, proposed to enhance the performance of fault estimation including rapidity and accuracy.

Once the faults are estimated, the fault tolerant controller is implemented as a dynamic output feedback controller. This controller can compensate for the effect of the faults by stabilizing the closed-loop systems. Finally, a helicopter model in a vertical flight with actuator fault was used to the effectiveness of the proposed approach.展开更多
