Abstract

This paper presents a new Self-repairing Control System (SRCS) for plants with actuator failures. The proposed SRCS uses the well-known Izhikevich spiking neuron model as a fault detector. When the actuator fails, the neuron model is excited and then spikes occur. Thus, counting up spikes makes it possible to find failures. Compared with the existing active fault-tolerant control systems, the SRCS has the following advantages: one can not only set a maximum detection time in advance, but also construct a simple control system whose structure is independent of the mathematical model of the plant. To confirm the effectiveness of the SRCS, this paper shows theoretical performance analysis and numerical simulation.
