This paper proposes a new FDI(Fault Detection and Isolation) method, which is called EPSA(Extended Parity Space Approach). This method is particularly suitable for fault detection and isolation of the system with one faulty sensor or two faulty sensors. In the system with two faulty sensors, the fault detection and isolation probability may be decreased when two faults are occurred between the sensors related to the large fault direction angle. Nonetheless, the previously suggested FDI methods to treat the two-faults problem do not consider the effect of the large fault direction angle. In order to solve this problem, this paper analyzes the effect of the large fault direction angle and proposes how to increase the fault detection and isolation probability. For the increase the detection probability, this paper additionally considers the fault type that is not detected because of the cancellation of the fault biases by the large fault direction angle. Also for the increase the isolation probability, this paper suggests the additional isolation procedure in case of two-faults. EPSA helps that the user can know the exact fault situation. The proposed FDI method is verified through Monte Carlo simulation.

Mission-critical 시스템의 경우 자가 치유는 신뢰성을 보장하기 위한 기술 중 하나이다. 자가치유는 오류 탐지와 오류 회복으로 이루어져 있으며 오류 탐지는 오류 회복을 가능하게 하는 자가 치유의 중요한 첫 단계이지만 시스템에 과부하를 주는 문제가 있다. 모델 기반의 방법 등으로 오류를 탐지할 수 있는데 시스템의 모든 행위를 통지하고 정상 행위 모델과 통지된 시스템의 행위를 비교하여야 하므로 그양이 많고 부하가 크기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 모델 기반의 오류 탐지 방법을 보완하는 아키텍처 기반의 다계층적 자가적응형 모니터링 방법을 제안한다. 소프트웨어 아키텍처 상에서 오류 탐지의 중요도는 컴포넌트 마다 다르다. 각 컴포넌트마다 발생하는 오류의 심각도와 빈도가 다르기 때문이다. 모니터링 중요도가 높은 컴포넌트에는 강도가 높고 모니터링 중요도가 낮은 컴포넌트에는 강도가 낮도록 모니터가 적응한다면 오류 탐지의 부하는 줄이고 효율은 유지시킬 수 있다. 또한 소프트웨어의 환경 변화 및 아키텍처상의 변화 등에 따라 오류 발생 빈도가 변화하여 컴포넌트의 오류 탐지 중요도가 변화하기 때문에 학습을 통해 이를 추적하여 자가적응적으로 중요도가 높은 컴포넌트를 집중 모니터링 한다.

This paper studies islanding detection distributed of distributed generation(DG). The study of islanding detection has been disconnected DG when power islanding was detected but fault type wasn't distingish. Nearby feeder fault the fault of feeder that not interconnected DG, is a little affect DG and distribution system. Therefore DG not need to disconnect distribution system. We studied islanding detection algorithm considering fault location.

This study deals with on-line fault detection and diagnosis for heat exchanger of variable speed refrigeration system. Conventional studies about fault of heat exchanger in refrigeration system have used temperature and pressure information. The temperature and pressure are able to be used valuably for faults detection of constant speed refrigeration system. However in case of variable speed refrigeration system, the temperature and pressure are no longer useful information for fault detection due to compensation effect of feedback controller. While current information is possible to detect faults of variable speed refrigeration system. The current information was detected in an inverter, it was used after transforming rms value. The faults of variable speed refrigeration system are divided into electrical faults and mechanical faults. We performed fault detection and diagnosis about heat exchanger among mechanical faults such as condenser fouling and evaporator fan fouling through some experiments.

A fault detection process is necessary for high integrity systems like satellites, missiles and aircrafts. Especially, the satellite has to be expected to detect faults autonomously because it cannot be fixed by an expert in the space. Faults can cause critical errors to the entire system and the satellite does not have sufficient computation power to operate a large scale fault management system. Thus, a fault detection method, which has less computational burden, is required. In this paper, we proposed a modified PCA (Principal Component Analysis) as a powerful fault detection method of redundant IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit). The proposed method combines PCA with the parity space approach and it is much more efficient than the others. The proposed fault detection algorithm, modified PCA, is shown to outperform fault detection through a simulation example.

This study suggests a generalized availability and safety evaluation model to evaluate the influences to the system's fault tolerant capabilities depending on automatic fault detection function such as the automatic periodic testings. The conventional evaluation model of automatic fault detection function deals only with the self diagnostics, and supposes that the fault detection coverage of self diagnostics is always constant. But all of the fault detection methods could be degraded. For example, the periodic surveillance test has the potential human errors or test equipment errors, the self diagnostics has the potential degradation of built-in logics, and the automatic periodic testing has the potential degradation of automatic test facilities. The suggested evaluation models have incorporated the loss or erroneous behaviors of the automatic fault detection methods. The availability and the safety of each module of the safety grade platform have been evaluated as they were applied the automatic periodic test methodology and the fault tolerant evaluation models. The availability and safety of the safety grade platform were improved when applied the automatic periodic testing. Especially the fault tolerant capability of the processor module with a weak self-diagnostics and the process parameter input modules were dramatically improved compared to the conventional cases. In addition, as a result of the safety evaluation of the digital reactor protection system, the system safety of the digital parts was improved about 4 times compared to the conventional cases.

Two GOS (Generalized Observer Scheme) type Fault Detection Isolation Schemes (FDIS), employing the bank of unknown input functional observers (UIFO) as a residual generator, are proposed to make the practical use of the multiple observer based FDIS. The one is IFD (Instrument Fault Detection) scheme and the other is PFD (Process Fault Detection) scheme. A design method of UIFO is suggested for robust residual generation and reducing the size of the observer bank. Several design objectives that can be achieved by the FDI schemes and the design methods to meet the objectives are described. An IFD system is constructed for the Boeing 929 Jetfoil boat system to show the effectiveness of the propositions. Major contributions of this paper are two folds. Firstly, the proposed UIFO approaches considerably reduce the size of residual generator in the GOS type FDI systems. Secondly, the FDI schemes, in addition to the basic functions of the conventional observer-based FDI schemes, can reconstruct the failed signal or give the estimates of fault magnitude that can be used for compensating fault effects. The schemes are directly applicable to the design of a fault tolerant control systems.

In this paper, a robust fault detection method for varying temperature based on fuzzy model is proposed. To develop a robust force estimation model, it needs temperature information because the output of force sensor is affected by a temperature variation. The nonlinear dynamic system, such as the parking force of the EPB (Electronic Parking Brake) system is necessary to have a higher order equation model. But, because of the calculation time, the higher order equation model is hard to be used in real application. In case of the lower order equation model, the result is not as accurate as acceptable. To solve this problem, the robust fuzzy model-based fault detection is developed. A proposed fault detection method for varying temperature is verified by HILS (hardware in the loop simulation).

Communication in real-time distributed system should have high reliability. To develop group communication Protocol with high reliability, potential fault should be known and when fault occurs, it should be detected and a necessary action should be taken. Existing detection method by Ack and Time-out is not proper for real time system due to load to Ack which is not received. Therefore, group communication messages from real-time distributed processing systems should be communicated to all receiving processors or ignored by the message itself. This paper can make be sure of transmission of reliable message and deadline by suggesting and experimenting fault detection technique applicable in the real time distributed system based on ring, and analyzing its results. The experiment showed that the shorter the cycle of the heartbeat signal, the shorter the time to propagate the fault detection, which is the time for other nodes to detect the failure of the node.
