Abstract

In this article, the robust fault detection and isolation (FDI) Kalman filter is extended based on stochastic event-triggered schedulers for discrete linear systems consisting of deterministic/stochastic unknown inputs with nonzero mean and colored measurement noise. In the proposed FDI method, first, a subspace of the main system that significantly attenuates disturbance effects is proposed. After that, the fusion method is proposed for dealing with the colored measurement-noise problem in designing the Kalman filter and preventing from leading to measurement noise with zero mean and zero covariance. The stochastic event-triggered schedulers are considered as Gaussian functions. Therefore, the Gaussian property of innovation sequence is preserved, and consequently, the recursive equation of the Kalman filter need not be extended based on approximation techniques. Finally, design parameters are chosen based on the convex optimization problem such that the lowest communication rate between the sensor node and FDI filter, and also the best FDI performance are achieved. The proposed FDI method is evaluated to detect and isolate stator interturn short circuit and broken rotor bars faults with unbalanced voltage as disturbance in three-phase induction motors.
