Dynamic event-triggered fault detection for multi time scale systems: Application to grid connected converters

Abstract

This paper deals with the fault detection problem for multi time scale systems. To save network resources, a novel dynamic event-triggered protocol with more generality and higher flexibility of parameters is proposed. The main novelties are condensed as follows, firstly, a modified fault detection observer and a quadratic residual evaluation function are synthetically designed; secondly, the sufficient condition is proved to guarantee that the estimation error system is asymptotically stable and satisfies the specified H∞ performance index; finally, a Lyapunov function is designed to composite the multi time scale perturbation parameter and the influence of the dynamic event-triggered scheme. Finally, a practical experiment on a type of grid connected converters is given to verify the proposed approach.
