Diagnosis of Intermittently Faulty Units at System Level

Abstract

Mostly, diagnosis at a system level intends to identify only permanently faulty units. In the paper, we consider the case when both permanently and intermittently faulty units can occur in the system. Identification of intermittently faulty units has some specifics which we have considered in this paper. We also suggest the method which allows for distinguishing among different types of intermittent faults. A diagnosis procedure was suggested for each type of intermittent fault.
