This paper deals with the estimation of sensor faults for nonlinear systems represented by a Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. The basic idea is to introduce an augmented state vector which groups together the states of the fuzzy T-S model and the sensor faults. In order to ensure the robustness of the proposed multiobserver and guarantee the convergence conditions, analysis and stability study are based on the candidate Lyapunov function and the formulation of Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI). The impact of the derivation of sensor faults has been attenuated using the H ∞ performance in the proposed multiobserver. To illustrate the validation of this observer, an academic example will be introduced in this work.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
