AN ALGORITHM FOR OBTAINING THE REDUNDANCY EQUATIONS OF LTI SYSTEMS

In the context of model-based failure detection and diagnosis, there i s a residual generation which can be obtained through a generalized pa rity space concept. This paper presents a new algorithm involving the generation of redundancy or parity equations for dynamic linear time-i nvariant systems. The proposed scheme involves the successive eliminat ion of state sub-vectors and their replacement by output values as wel l as the processing of an output done one at a time to avoid matrix in version. Some examples point out the numerical efficiency of the propo sed procedure.
