Aero‐Engine DCS Fault‐Tolerant Control with Markov Time Delay Based On Augmented Adaptive Sliding Mode Observer

Abstract

With a focus on aero‐engine distributed control systems (DCSs) with Markov time delay, unknown input disturbance, and sensor and actuator simultaneous faults, a combined fault tolerant algorithm based on the adaptive sliding mode observer is studied. First, an uncertain augmented model of distributed control system is established under the condition of simultaneous sensor and actuator faults, which also considers the influence of the output disturbances. Second, an augmented adaptive sliding mode observer is designed and the linear matrix inequality (LMI) form stability condition of the combined closed‐loop system is deduced. Third, a robust sliding mode fault tolerant controller is designed based on fault estimation of the sliding mode observer, where the theory of predictive control is adopted to suppress the influence of random time delay on system stability. Simulation results indicate that the proposed sliding mode fault tolerant controller can be very effective despite the existence of faults and output disturbances, and is suitable for the simultaneous sensor and actuator faults condition.

A Linear Iterative Controller for Software Defined Control Systems of Aero-Engines Based on LMI

“…In addition, the presence of rotating components results in a large amount of cables within the system, which reduces the thrust-to-weight ratio of the aero-engines. To overcome the drawbacks of centralized control schemes, researchers have introduced the design concept of distributed control into the design of aero-engine control systems [1][2][3][4][5].…”

Modeling and Control for an Aero-Engine Based on the Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Model

“…The inherently nonlinear nature of aero-engines presents a challenge when applying existing nonlinear control theories to this complex system. As a result, most accepted approaches rely on linear systems theory for aero-engine control theory [1][2][3]. However, this requires the nonlinear models to be transformed into linear forms that are more amenable for analysis and control design, which can be a daunting task.…”
