Passive Fault Tolerant Control of Piecewise Affine Systems Based on H Infinity Synthesis

In this paper we design a passive fault tolerant controller against actuator faults for discretetimepiecewise affine (PWA) systems. By using dissipativity theory and H analysis, fault tolerant statefeedback controller design is expressed as a set of Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs). In the currentpaper, the PWA system switches not only due to the state but also due to the control input. The method isapplied on a large scale livestock ventilation model
