This paper investigates the convergence of an iterative distributed model predictive control (DMPC) scheme for linear systems interconnected by dynamics and costs. The DMPC scheme is based on a Jacobi-type iteration and exchange of primal variables. Previous results show that, in the limit, the scheme converges to the Pareto optimal solution but no results on the convergence rate are given. We will first establish a bound on the convergence rate and show that weights used in the scheme and strength of coupling between subsystems have a strong influence on this bound. Subsequently, two approaches to determine the weights are compared. Random numerical examples are used to compare the theoretical bound on the convergence rate with the actual convergence of the scheme.

To ensure safe operation of technical processes, faults have to be reliably detected and isolated to provide information for process maintenance, shutdown, or reconfiguration. Fault detection and isolation can be achieved by invalidation of fault candidates, i.e. models of the system in fault-free and faulty condition. In order to enhance the performance of fault detection and isolation, so-called active approaches use input signals with the objective that the resulting system outputs are consistent with at most one fault candidate. Guaranteeing or analyzing robustness of active fault diagnosis with respect to input, output, and process uncertainties and nonlinearities is challenging. This paper provides certificates of robustness of input sequences with respect to the aforementioned uncertainties and nonlinearities. The certificates enable the determination of input and output uncertainties for which unique fault diagnosis results can still be guaranteed. In addition, a method is presented to select a minimal number of outputs that still guarantee robust fault diagnosis, thus reducing the measurement setup and cost. The approach employs nonlinear mixed-integer feasibility problems and a relaxation framework and does not require the explicit computation of reachable sets. The approach is applicable to polynomial discrete-time systems and is demonstrated for a numerical example.

This paper considers the robust design of sparse relative sensing networks subject to a given H_∞-performance constraint. The topology design considers heterogenous agents over weighted graphs. We develop a robust counterpart to the uncertain optimization problem and formulate the sparsity constraint via a convex l_1-relaxation. We also demonstrate how this relaxation can be used to embed additional performance criteria, such as the maximization of the algebraic connectivity of the relative sensing network.

Set-based estimation for nonlinear systems is a useful tool to handle sparse and uncertain data. The tool provides outer bounds on feasible parameter sets and reachable states, as well as provable inconsistency certificates for entire parameter regions. In case of errors in the data such as outliers or incorrect a priori assumptions on variable uncertainties, set-based approaches can, however, lead to poor estimates or even rejection of a consistent model. We present a set-based approach to systematically identify outliers or incorrect variable uncertainty assumptions. The basic idea is to detect outliers by quantifying the influence they have on the inconsistency of an underlying feasibility problem. The results build on a set-based estimation framework that employs convex relaxations. Specifically we derive model consistency measures and sensitivity measures that combine the sensitivity information stored in the Lagrange dual variables. An algorithm is developed that iteratively detects outliers that contribute most to inconsistency. The algorithm terminates once the data and model are no longer proved inconsistent. The approach is illustrated by an example.

Observer design for a class of distributed parameter systems based on the so called hyperbolic observer canonical form (o.c.f.) is considered. The method relies on the tight relation between hyperbolic d.p.s. and functional differential equations (f.d.e.). Based on an input-output description given in form of a f.d.e. and a parametrization of the original "physical" coordinates by the system's input and output trajectories, the transformation to the o.c.f. is calculated using another set of coordinates. These coordinates are associated with the hyperbolic observability form and correspond to the restriction of the output trajectory to a certain interval. The proposed method is illustrated on the basis of the one-dimensional wave equation with dynamic boundary conditions.

In this work we focus on unique diagnosability of parametric faults in the presence of measurement uncertainty and model mismatches. Specifically, we formulate a condition for diagnosability of parametric faults in a set-based framework that allows for direct consideration of uncertainty. Based on this condition we present an approach for the analysis and certification of diagnosability. Furthermore, we propose an approach for the redesign of initially given fault classifications in the parameter space. Specifically we compute diagnosable subsets of initially given parameter sets in polynomial discrete-time fault candidates by comparing pairs of fault candidates. Furthermore, we demonstrate the presented approach for a numerical example.

Parameter-dependent constrained optimization problems like they occur in the context of model predictive control (MPC) can be solved explicitly by means of multi-parametric quadratic programming (mpQP) techniques. We present a complexity analysis for a recently proposed combinatorial mpQP algorithm and discuss its advantages over existing geometric approaches concerning off-line explicit MPC computations for higher-order linear systems. The results are accompanied by numerical benchmark results for two suitable example problems from the area of process control.

Effective fault diagnosis depends on the detectability of the faults in the measurements, which can be improved by a suitable input signal. This article presents a deterministic method for computing the set of inputs that guarantee fault diagnosis, referred to as separating inputs. The process of interest is described, under nominal and various faulty conditions, by linear discrete-time models subject to bounded process and measurement noise. It is shown that the set of separating inputs can be efficiently computed in terms of the complement of one or several zonotopes, depending on the number of fault models. In practice, it is essential to choose elements from this set that are minimally harmful with respect to other control objectives. It is shown that this can be done efficiently through the solution of a mixed-integer quadratic program. The method is demonstrated for a numerical example.
