Asynchronously switched fault detection filter design for full-envelope flight vehicle

The fault detection problem of a class of full-envelope flight vehicles with time delays and packet losses is investigated. Their model is established as locally overlapped switched systems to reduce conservatism. The delays and the packet losses are transformed into the parameters of polytopic systems. The switched parameter-dependent fault detection filter (FDF) is then designed. The fault detection system stability and its [Formula: see text] performance under asynchronous switching with average dwell time are analyzed. Moreover, a parity-space–based optimization approach is presented to guarantee that the modified residual signal is sensitive to fault but robust to disturbance. An example of applying this method to the highly maneuverable technology vehicle is given to verify the method’s effectiveness.
