Sensor Fault Tolerant Control of a Fast Steering Mirror System Using Adaptive PI-Based Sliding Mode Observer and Hardware Redundancy

الملخص EN

The aim of this paper is to present a sensor fault-tolerant control (FTC) scheme for a two-axis fast steering mirror (FSM) system with minimum power consumption and without changing the controller structure.

In this paper, an adaptive PI-based sliding mode observer (APISMO) is adopted firstly to estimate the fault signal, which does not require any prior knowledge of the fault.

The estimation is then used by the fault isolation logic to identify the fault.

The redundant sensor would be powered up to replace the faulty one when faults occur.

During the backup sensor booting up, for maintaining the normal performance of the closed-loop system approximately, a fault-free estimation of the position provided by the APISMO is used as feedback signal.

Experimental studies on a prototype system show that the proposed APISMO can effectively reconstruct the fault signals even when the two primary position sensors are faulty simultaneously.

Meanwhile, the effectiveness and performance of the proposed scheme have been verified.
