Optimal Timing Fault Tolerant Control for Switched Stochastic Systems with Switched Drift Fault

摘要

In this article, an optimal timing fault tolerant control strategy is addressed for switched stochastic systems with unknown drift fault for each switching point. The proposed controllers in existing optimal timing control schemes are not directly aimed at the switched drift fault system, which affects the optimal control performance. A cost functional with system state information and fault variable is constructed. By solving the optimal switching time criterion, the switched stochastic system can accommodate switching drift fault. The variational technique is presented for the proposed cost function in deriving the gradient formula. Then, the optimal fault tolerant switching time is calculated by combining the Armijo step-size gradient descent algorithm. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed controller design scheme is proved by the safe trajectory planning for a four wheel drive mobile robot and numerical example.
