Dynamic event‐triggered fault estimation and accommodation for networked systems based on intermediate variable

Abstract In this paper, the problem of robust fault estimation and fault‐tolerant control is considered for networked systems with external disturbances. By introducing an intermediate variable containing the system state information and fault information, the observer to accurately estimate the fault and system state is proposed. The gain matrices of fault estimation observer, fault‐tolerant controller and dynamic event‐triggered mechanism(ETM) are calculated simultaneously by solving a convex optimization problem. Compared with the existing results, the proposed fault estimation strategy does not match observer matching conditions. Furthermore, the introduction of dynamic ETM can effectively reduce the burden of the network with limited bandwidth resources. Finally, two simulation examples show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
