Abstract

FAULT TOLERANT CONTROL OF THE ELECTRIC PROPULSION FOR AUTONOMOUS SURFACE VEHICLES

Abstract

The application of a simple design of fault tolerant control FTC methodology to the electric propulsion of autonomous surface vehicle is presented. The existing approaches to fault detection and isolation and fault tolerant control in a general framework of a active fault tolerant control are considered according to design methodologies and applications. FMEA Failure Mode and Effects Analysis is carried out as a fault analysis, precarious parts of propulsion system are found and offered a solutions to risky applications

Keywords
