As many systems depend on electronics in an intelligent vehicle, concern for fault tolerance is growing rapidly. For example, a car with its braking controlled by electronics and no mechanical linkage from brake pedal to calipers of front tires(brake-by-wire system) should be fault tolerant because a failure can come without any warning and its effect is devastating. In general, fault tolerance is usually designed by placing redundant components that duplicate the functions of the original module. In this way a fault can be isolated, and safe operation is guaranteed by replacing the faulty module with its redundant and normal module within a predefined interval. In order to make in-vehicle network fault tolerant, this paper presents the concept and design methodology of an IEEE 1451 based dual CAN module. In addition, feasibility of the dual CAN network was evaluated by implementing the dual CAN module.

In this paper, a new FTCS with the ability to perform original control objective without considerable loss of control performance in the face of any fault is proposed. The FTCS is composed of two interacting units, Adaptive Controller Unit and Fault Detection/Classification, where ACU performs primary control objective with basic process information(I/O) and environmental information fed by FDU and where FDU detect and classify faults and make decision on remidial action by the use of information provided by ACU.

Railway signalling system always is required high safety and reliability. The failure of the train control system can provoke a serious accident. In this paper, we show how to achieve the safety and reliability by dividing signalling system into vital and non functions, studying operational environment.

Digital systems are increasingly being used in the ranges of many control engineering. The residue number system offers the possibility of high speed operation and error correction. The compact self-checking pulse-train residue arithmetic circuit is proposed. A fault tolerant digital filter is practically implemented using these proposed circuits.

In this paper, fault tolerant mechanisms are presented for a servo manipulator system designed to operate in a hot cell. A hot cell is a sealed and shielded room to handle radioactive materials, and it is dangerous for people to work in the hot cell. So, remote operations are necessary to handle radioactive materials in the hot cell. KAERI has developed a servo manipulator system to perform such remote operations. However, since electric components such as servo motors are weak to radiations, fault tolerant mechanisms have to be considered. For fault tolerance of the servo manipulator system, hardware and software redundancy have been considered. In case of hardware, radioactive resistant electric components such as cables and connectors have been adopted and motors driving a transport have been duplicated. In case of software, a reconfiguration algorithm accommodating one motor's failure has been developed. The algorithm uses redundant axis to recover the end effector's motion in spite of one motor's failure.

Most of distributed PLC system is secured reliability of the system by fully duplicated controller. But it costs too much. In this paper, we proposed fault tolerant control using minimum spare controllers. First, the system is modeled using Galois field. Next, we designed additional spare controllers using the parity code of two dimensions. Finally, the algorithm for producing estimated output in remote I/O when the fault occurs was suggested. This method will be applied to an automatic system in order to increase reliability and improve cost performance.

A reliable Analytical Redundancy(AR) based Fault Detection Scheme(FDS) that can detect, discriminate sensor fault and process fault is presented. And a Fault Tolerant Control System ( FTCS ) with the FDS that performs original control objective without considerable loss of control performance in the face of sensor/process faults is constructed. These propositions are valuable in the sense that it resolves the well known sensitivity problem and that sensor/process faults can be detected, discriminated so that effects of any fault can be promptly accomodated by reconfiguring control system structure automatically.

In this paper, fault tolerant digital governor is designed to realize ceaseless controlling and to improve the reliability of control system. Designed digital governor huts duplex I/O module and triplex CPU module and also 2 out of 3 voting algorithm and self diagnostic ability. The Processor module of the system(SIDG-3000) is developed based on 32 Bit industrial microprocessor, which guaranteed high quality of the module and SRAM for data also SRAM for command are separated. The process module also includes inter process communication function and power back up function (SRAM for back-up). System reliability is estimated by using the model of Markov process. It is shown that the reliability of triplex system in mission time can be dramatically improved compared with a single control system Designed digital governor system is applied after modelling of the steam turbine generator system of Buk-Cheju Thermal Power Plant. Simulation is carried out to prove the effectiveness of the designed digital governor system

In high reliability systems for industrial network such as railway signal system, fieldbus protocols have been known to satisfy the real-time and fault tolerant requirements. But, the application of fieldbus has been limited due to the high cost of hardware and software, and the difficulty in interfacing with multi-vendor products. Therefore, as an alternative to fieldbus, the computer network technology, especially Ethernet(IEEE 802.3), is being adapted to the industrial network. In this paper, we propose a switched Ethernet based railway signal system because of its very promising prospect for industrial application due to the elimination of uncertainties in the network operation. In addition, we propose the redundancy architecture for the reliability of network components. More specifically, this paper presents an analytical performance evaluation of switched Ethernet for railway signal system, and shows experimental evaluation of redundancy architecture.
