Fault Detection Based on Tracking Differentiator Applied on the Suspension System of Maglev Train

Abstract EN

A fault detection method based on the optimized tracking differentiator is introduced.

It is applied on the acceleration sensor of the suspension system of maglev train.

It detects the fault of the acceleration sensor by comparing the acceleration integral signal with the speed signal obtained by the optimized tracking differentiator.

This paper optimizes the control variable when the states locate within or beyond the two-step reachable region to improve the performance of the approximate linear discrete tracking differentiator.

Fault-tolerant control has been conducted by feedback based on the speed signal acquired from the optimized tracking differentiator when the acceleration sensor fails.

The simulation and experiment results show the practical usefulness of the presented method.
