Fault detection for jump discrete systems

The development of a fault detection scheme for linear jump discrete systems is addressed. The system´s parameter vector is identified through a sliding-window orthotopic set membership identification scheme. A recursive algorithm predicts the interval of the system´s output based on the identified parameter bounds. The fault is detected when the actual system output is not within the predicted `worst case´ interval output, or when the actual parameter vector is not within the identified interval. Simulation and experimental studies are offered to illustrate the scheme´s performance
