Abstract

A new statistical fault detection technique based on the Kalman filter innovation covariance testing is proposed. The generalized variance (determinant) of the random Wishart matrix is used for this purpose as a fault detection statistic, and the testing problem is reduced to the determination of the asymptotes for Wishart determinants. In the simulations, the flight dynamics model of the F-16 fighter is investigated, and detection of sensor and actuator/surface failures, which affect the innovation covariance, is examined.
