In this paper, the detection problem of intermittent multiplicative sensor fault is investigated for stochastic uncertain systems. A robust optimal filter is designed according to the criterion of minimum estimation error covariance. Then, based on this, a residual generator is constructed, and the quantitative effect of the fault on it is discussed in detail. After that we design the evaluation function and detection threshold to achieve intermittent fault detection. Our proposed strategy has a recursive form and only includes simple arithmetic operations, thus it is suitable for real‐time online applications. Finally, a simulation example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.
