ABSTRACT
In this paper, we study the problem of state estimation and both actuator and sensor fault detection for Linear Polytopic Parameter-Varying (LPV) system. The contribution of this work consists on the design of a novel robust adaptive observer based on polyquadratic formulations with a new set of relaxation. An optimisation problem is given in term of Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMI) in order to guarantee the stability of the system and the asymptotic convergence of faults error. A comparative study is made to prove the efficiency of the proposed polyquadratic algorithms against the quadratic ones. The performances and effectiveness of the proposed methods are illustrated in a simulation example where constant and variable actuator and sensor faults were detected.
