Diagnosis and reconfiguration of quantised systems

  • Chapter
Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant Control

Abstract

Quantised systems have a discrete-event behaviour because the signals of a continuous-variable system can only be accessed through quantisers that produce symbolic state or event sequences. This chapter shows how quantised systems can be represented by stochastic automata and how state observation, diagnostic and control problems can be solved. First a stochastic automaton is set up so as to represent the discrete-event behaviour of the quantised system completely. Second the given analysis and design problems are solved for the automaton by means of the methods explained in Chapter 8.
