Model Based Diagnostics for Vehicle Systems

Abstract

In recent years, increasing interest and requirement for improved vehicle performance, reliability and safety has focused attention on the use of Fault Detection & Isolation when designing vehicle control systems. In order to achieve this FDI schemes, particular vehicle subsystems integrated with a controller have been proposed. This paper introduces a new Model-Based Fault Detection and Fault Diagnosis method for monitoring the overall vehicle system performance.

Fault Diagnosis in Automotive Alternator System Utilizing Adaptive Threshold Method

“…Modern vehicles optimal performance is highly dependent of the reliable power generation and storage system (EPGS). Furthermore, most of the modern safety features such as X-by-wire system (Pisu, P., Rizzoni, G., et al (2000)) are highly dependent on a smooth operation of EPGS systems. Thus, an effective diagnosis algorithm for EPGS system is necessary to maintain the optimal performance of the vehicle.…”
