ABSTRACT This paper studies fault detection problem in the finite-frequency domain for linear systems with parameter uncertainties. We design an fault detection observer to generate residual that is robust against disturbance and sensitive to a fault. In the design, we use the finite-frequency performance index to measure fault sensitivity and introduce performance index to measure the effect of disturbance on residual. The obtained fault detection observer exhibits a peak-to-peak disturbance attenuation performance, which provides a time-varying threshold for residual evaluation. Therefore the proposed design method integrates residual generation and threshold calculation together. To facilitate the observer design process, sufficient conditions of the proposed fault detection observer are formulated as a set of linear matrix inequalities. Numerical simulations are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
