Developing an Approach for Fault Detection and Diagnosis of Angular Velocity Sensors

Abstract

Angular velocity sensor detection and diagnosis become increasingly essential for the improvement of reliability, safety, and efficiency of the control system on aircraft. The classical methods for fault detection and diagnosis are limit or trend checking of some measurable output variables. Due to they do not give a deeper insight and usually do not allow a fault diagnosis, model-based methods of fault detection and diagnosis were developed by using input and output signals and applying dynamic process models. These approaches are based on parameter estimation, parity equations, or state observers. This paper presents an improvement method to build algorithm fault diagnosis for angular velocity sensors on aircraft. Based on proposed method, results of paper can be used in designed intelligent systems that can automatically fault detection on aircraft.
