Goal(s)

Fault detection and isolation (FDI)is a subfield of control engineering which involves monitoring a system, identifying when a fault has occurred, and pinpointing the type of fault and its location. Model-based techniques of fault detection and isolation use a model to investigate/analyze the occurrence of faults. The system model may be mathematical or knowledge-based. We focus our attention on mathematical models.

Content(s)

There ar only tree main approaches. The observer-based approach, the parity-space approach, and parameter identification-based methods. In order to optimize FDI indications, the following two step are developped :

The first step is to design a filter based on a model of the plant to generate a vector known as the residual. The residual should ideally be zero (or zero mean) under no-fault conditions.

The second step is to make decisions on whether a fault has occurred. This step is usually done using statistical tools to test if the residual has significantly deviated from zero.
