Event-triggered sliding mode control for networked control systems with actuator faults: Application to gas turbine system

This paper presents an event-triggered sliding mode fault-tolerant control method for networked control systems with actuator faults and external disturbance. First, an event-triggered scheme in the networked control systems is proposed to reduce the number of data transmission. In addition, considering the event-triggering, a sliding mode surface based on the system structure is constructed. Besides, to obtain the controller parameters that meet the H-infinity performance, the bounded real lemma in the form of linear matrix inequality is obtained using the Lyapunov functional. In addition, a sliding mode fault-tolerant control is designed to guarantee that the system can still run stably under the condition of faults and disturbances. Finally, the simulation results of gas turbine system are given to verify the feasibility of the theoretical method.
