This approach is based on a variation of all controller parametrization. This robust and fault-tolerant control design consists of two parts: a nominal performance controller and a robustness controller, and works in such a way that when a component (sensor,actuator, etc.) failure is detected, the controller structure is reconfigured by adding a robustness loop to compensate the fault. We shall illustrate how this strategy works under various situations.展开更多
