“…In addition, in [41] the communication delay between two local diagnosers is considered equal, and it is assumed that there is no delay between the measurement sites and diagnosers. The problem of DES subject to unreliable observations of events was addressed in [54] and [61] (in the context of failure diagnosis) without considering communication networks. In this work, we model the loss of observation based on the technique proposed by CARVALHO et al in [54] In [42,43], the definition of network codiagnosability of DES subject to event communication delays was introduced, where the concept of step [33,35] was used to measure communication delays, i.e., k ∈ N steps accounts for the occurrence of, at most, k events until the information of the event executed by the plant arrives at the local diagnoser.…”
