1 Introduction
Maglev train is a new kind of urban railway system that hasadvantages of lower noise less exhaust fumes emission andless maintenance cost It is under engineering applicationnow in many countries such as China Japan and Korea [1ndash3] According to the engineering application the accelerationsensor is themain cause for the suspension system fault due toits direct installation on the electromagnet and its poor exter-nal operating environment The suspension control systemcannot guarantee the suspension stability without the speedsignal obtained by acceleration sensor How to obtain thefault information of acceleration sensor timely and conductfault-tolerant control promptly is important to guarantee thesafety and stability of the maglev train [4ndash6] With the rapiddevelopment and enormous advantages of maglev train theresearch on the fault detection for the suspension controlsystem is both theoretically and practically significant Thisis also the starting point of this paper
In accordance with the existing public documents theresearch both at home and abroad on the fault detectionof the suspension control system is very few Instead mostof the studies focus on the system modeling analysis andthe controller design At home the research on the fault
detectionmainly focuses on aspects of power supply tractionsubsystem and the safe reliability analysis of suspensionsystem [7 8] Michail et al [9] studied the fault detection ofthe gap sensor of suspension system and it was conducted bycomparing the gapmeasurement value the estimated value ofKalman filtering the gap value computed on electric currentand magnetic flux density Also a research on the fault detec-tion of the acceleration sensor gap sensor and the actuatorof a monopodium double-iron suspension system has beenconducted by some researchers from Korea including Sungand Kim [10ndash12] The research detects the fault by obtainingone residual through comparing the measurement value ofthe gap and the acceleration with the gap and accelerationvalue computed on the basis of the system input signal andelectromagnet current valueThen the other residual throughcomparing the currents of two electromagnets is obtainedThe fault indicator of this component through adding themean values of the square of one residual with the squareof the other residual according to certain algorithm can beworked out Finally it can get the fault detection result byperforming fuzzy theory algorithm on this indicator andits derivative While the research at home [13] primarilyfocuses on the fault-tolerant plan for the sensor and actuatorof the suspension system the methods of Kalman filtering

strong tracking filtering and full-dimension observer areapplied after the suspension control system is linearized at theequilibrium point And then the fault is detected by checkingthe parameters and states of system before and after the fault
In view of the existing methods this paper focuses on thefault detection for the acceleration sensor of the suspensionsystem in the maglev train If model-based fault detectionmethod [14] is employed the detection effect will be greatlydiscounted because the mathematical model of suspensionsystem cannot be obtained accurately If knowledge-basedfault detection method [15] is taken the suspension systemwould not be very applicable due to the lack of priorknowledge of fault Consider that many faults will affect themeasurement of signal (generally the inputoutput signal)and change some of their features in practical system Themethod based on processing the inputoutput signal analyzesthe features of the detectable signal such as the correlationfunction frequency spectrum higher-order statistics andautoregression moving average process By observing thechange of features of the signal or comparing the redundancysignal it can infer the fault model and then realize faultdetection By optimizing the approximate linear trackingdifferentiator proposed by Han and Yuan [16] (hereinafterreferred to as 119865119905119889) and extracting the speed signal as thereference signal with 119865119905119889 algorithm this paper compares thereference signal with the acceleration sensor signal And thenthe fault of the acceleration sensor is detected by the thresholdvalue that is set by introducing the Bayesian DecisionTheory[17 18] for comparison result The fault-tolerant control isperformed by introducing the speed signal acquired by theoptimized linear tracking differentiator when fault occurs

22 Problem of the Suspension System The closed loopfeedback control is realized through gap signal verticalvelocity signal and current signal in the suspension controlsystem These feedback signals are respectively provided bygap sensor the integral of signal of acceleration sensor andcurrent sensor In maglev train project the fault probabilityof current sensor is lower because the sensor is installedinside the crate and possesses a good operating conditionTo solve the problem of gap connection the gap sensoruses triplication redundancy configuration so that fault inone gap sensor would not affect the acquisition of the gapsignal In order to acquire the vibration information in thesuspension electromagnet the acceleration sensor is installedon the electromagnet As a result it is more likely to fail [6]Therefore this paper mainly targets the fault detection of theacceleration sensor
The core of fault detection by means of signal processingis to find a relatively stable velocity reference signal beforeand after the fault Having a low fault probability due to itsadoption of triplication redundancy configuration in maglevproject the reference signal can be required from gap sensorAnd then fault detection of the acceleration sensor can beconducted by comparing the reference signal and the integral

of the acceleration sensor signal In this paper the velocitysignal of system is acquired by using the tracking differentia-tor Tracking differentiator with obvious flutter phenomenonand requirement of high-frequency adjustment of controlvariable is unacceptable for the practical control systembecause the high-frequency change needs to consume muchenergy and the high-frequency perturbation of trackingsignal indicates the abrasion of mechanical deviceThereforethis paper aims at optimizing the parts that have overshooterror or flutter phenomenon on the basis of the approximatelinear tracking differentiator proposed by Han and Yuan [16]By optimizing the deviation of control algorithm whereverthe states locate within or beyond the two-step reachableregion the flutter problem can be solvedAnd an approximatelinear tracking differentiator (hereinafter referred to as 119865119905119889)that does not contain the square roots algorithm and whoseform is simple and whose implement action is easy can beacquired
3 An Optimized Approximate Linear TrackingDifferentiator Algorithm
According to part 2 the key to the fault detection of theacceleration sensor for the suspension system of maglevtrain is to obtain the efficient velocity signal as the referencesignal Gaining the differential signal rapidly and accuratelyand restraining the noise in the signal have always beenan important topic Tracking differentiator (TD) can trackthe input signal and extract of appropriate differential sig-nal effectively which make it increasingly popular amongresearchers Khalil and some other researchers [19 20]designed a linear high-gain differentiator which providesthe derivatives of signal from 1 to (119899 minus 1) The trackingdifferentiator based on bang-bang control is actually a kind ofsliding differentiator Researchers such as Levant [21ndash24] andUtkin [25 26] have done a series of studies on the featuresof sliding differentiator They applied this differentiator tofiltering sliding-mode control parameter estimation and soforth and have obtained certain achievements Han and Yuan[16] proposed a discrete tracking differentiator based on thesecond order time-optimal control system and applied it toactive-disturbance-rejection control (ADRC) [27] It solvesthe complex problems of disturbance observation trackingcontrol and parameter estimation better and has a goodrobust stability In the meantime Xie proposed a second-order nonlinear discrete tracking differentiator based on theresearch of Han that is able to amend its characteristic pointsand is flexible to applications And Xie applied this differen-tiator to the velocity and position detection of a permanentmagnet electrodynamicmaglev train system [28] To simplifythe discrete tracking differentiator Han [29] proposes a kindof approximate linear discrete tracking differentiator in hisbook Active-Disturbance-Rejection Controller CompensationTechnology taking the features of two-step reachable regionand the reversion of switching curve into considerationHowever the tracking trajectory obtained according to thefinal formula in this book has problems of overshoot andflutter which makes it difficult to promote and apply This
part discusses the simplification of the approximate linearand points out the disadvantage of the approximate linearformula in [29] Finally this part gives an optimized approx-imate linear discrete formula The simulation results showerror between the TD of Han and the two other differentlinear approximate formulas respectively
31 Synthesis Function of Second-OrderDiscrete Time-OptimalControl System In accordance with the optimal control the-ory the time-optimal control of the second-order integratorsystem with the starting point as the terminal one is bang-bang control [30] And themodel of the second-order systemcan be written as

When the second-order integrator system is dispersedsimply the system would generate unsatisfactory high-frequency flutter after it stabilizes It is a challenge to boththe study and application of rapid tracking differentiator Afurther research on the reasons for flutter is a must Theboundary characteristic curves of linear regions with thesecond-order discrete time-optimal control are presentedusing the method of the state back step by Han And bymeans of it Han designed a brilliant method that avoided theflutter According to the algorithm of the discrete trackingdifferentiator in document [29] it can be assumed that thediscrete step is ℎ any point on the phase plane is119872(119909

and then the discretionary result of (1) is (4) And the controlforce 119906 is determined by (5) The algorithm (herein referredto as 119865ℎ119886119899) formula can be written as

To further discuss formula (9) a conclusion can be drawnthat if 119872(119909
1 1199092) on the phase plan is within the two-step
reachable region namely |119910| le 119889 cap |119911| le 119889 119872 sube Ω119903 then
it can obtain that 119878119910119878119911= 1 119906 = minus119903
119911 But the actual algorithm
should be 119906 = minus119911ℎ2 by computation when 119872(119909
1 1199092) is
within the two-step reachable region Besides taking thepoint beyond the two-step reachable region into accountnamely 119878
119910119878119885
= 1 119906 = minus119903(sgn(119911) + sgn(119886)) the actualreversion algorithm is 119906 = minus119903 sgn(119886) so naturally differencealso exists here Therefore the conclusion can be drawn thatthe approximate linear algorithm (9) in document [29] ispartially erred and the right algorithm should be formula (8)
According to the analysis of formula (9) there is aredundant sgn(119911) both within and beyond the reachableregion and factor 119889 is missing for the item with 119911 The correctformula is as follows
119906 = minus119903 (119911

Formula (11) is completely equal to formula (8) whichis a correction of formula (9) Thus this formula showsthe disadvantage of document [29] by Han and corrects theshortcoming
33 Comparison of the Numerical Simulation Result Tocompare the errors of the two approximates against the TD ofHan we can compare the phase path of a point on the phaseplane firstly and then study the difference with the trackinginput signal and differential signal

first two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe variation of the gap on the left-side and right-side sensoragainst the steady-state value namely the gap deviation Andthe last two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe vertical speed of train of the left-side and right-sidesensor All tracks of the maglev train during simulation aredeemed smooth
The two single electromagnets in the electromagnetmodule are symmetricalWithout loss of generality here takethe acceleration sensor of the left-side single electromagnethaving fault as an example to simulate In order to verifythe tracking and differential extraction ability in these threealgorithms the parameters in algorithms of119865ℎ119886119899119865ℎ1198861198991 and119865119905119889 are set with one accord

of maglev train the gap deviation signal is included the whitenoise signal that is distributed evenly In other words thedifferential signals and gap signal must have signal-like noisewhich is not affected by external disturbance The simulationresults also indicate that 119865ℎ1198861198991 is very sensitive to noiseand it is unable to process the noise and further obtain thetracking and differential signal To some degree 119865ℎ1198861198991 is notapplicable in the maglev train system A conclusion can bedrawn that the tracking and differential extraction ability ofthe two tracking differentiators in algorithms 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865119905119889are approximate And both of themhave a goodfiltering effecton the gap signal In addition their noise arising from gapdifferential is also within the minor magnitude
Figures 10 11 and 12 demonstrate the simulation resultsof left-side acceleration sensor when a fault has occurred at05 seconds (ie output as 0)
As can be seen from Figure 10 the system begins toshake and diverge when the left-side accelerations sensorfails But at the same time the tracking differentiator stillcan track and extract differential signal of the gap signalto a certain extent However the tracking and differentialextraction of noise signal from algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 is not goodaccording to the simulation results All the signals obtainedfrom 119865ℎ1198861198991 algorithm in this system are useless When theleft-side acceleration sensor fails the acceleration integralvalue remains the same and it makes gap differential valueand the gap signal shake and diverge which leads to bigger

5 Fault-Tolerant Control ofAcceleration Sensor
As can be seen from part 2 it is much likely to breakdown in acceleration sensor in the suspension control systemof maglev train Fault-tolerant control can be conductedby replacing the acceleration integral signal with the gapdifferential signal extracted by the optimized approximatelinear tracking differentiator when the acceleration sensorfails The specific schematic diagram of the scheme is shownin Figures 1ndash5 where gap differential 1199111015840 is the gap signalprocessed by differentiator and acceleration integrated signalint 119886 is acceleration signal processed by integrator and decisioncontent 119889 and threshold value 119905ℎ119903 are processed by the faultdetection unit based on the difference between 119911
1015840 and int 119886Signal 119904 is obtained based on the relationship between 119889
and 119905ℎ119903 The controller then makes the choice between 1199111015840
and int 119886 according to the difference of 119904 int 119886 is regardedas the velocity feedback when system is normal but whenfault is detected in accelerometer by fault detection unit1199111015840 is regarded as the velocity feedback Thus fault-tolerantcontrol of accelerometer fault is realized Figure 14 shows theintroduction of the speed signal 1199111015840 obtained from the trackingdifferentiator into the closed loop feedback control after theacceleration sensor fails during the experiment The resultshows that the introduction of the speed signal obtainedfrom the tracking differentiator into the feedback control canstabilize the system which is fault-tolerant control

strong tracking filtering and full-dimension observer areapplied after the suspension control system is linearized at theequilibrium point And then the fault is detected by checkingthe parameters and states of system before and after the fault
In view of the existing methods this paper focuses on thefault detection for the acceleration sensor of the suspensionsystem in the maglev train If model-based fault detectionmethod [14] is employed the detection effect will be greatlydiscounted because the mathematical model of suspensionsystem cannot be obtained accurately If knowledge-basedfault detection method [15] is taken the suspension systemwould not be very applicable due to the lack of priorknowledge of fault Consider that many faults will affect themeasurement of signal (generally the inputoutput signal)and change some of their features in practical system Themethod based on processing the inputoutput signal analyzesthe features of the detectable signal such as the correlationfunction frequency spectrum higher-order statistics andautoregression moving average process By observing thechange of features of the signal or comparing the redundancysignal it can infer the fault model and then realize faultdetection By optimizing the approximate linear trackingdifferentiator proposed by Han and Yuan [16] (hereinafterreferred to as 119865119905119889) and extracting the speed signal as thereference signal with 119865119905119889 algorithm this paper compares thereference signal with the acceleration sensor signal And thenthe fault of the acceleration sensor is detected by the thresholdvalue that is set by introducing the Bayesian DecisionTheory[17 18] for comparison result The fault-tolerant control isperformed by introducing the speed signal acquired by theoptimized linear tracking differentiator when fault occurs

22 Problem of the Suspension System The closed loopfeedback control is realized through gap signal verticalvelocity signal and current signal in the suspension controlsystem These feedback signals are respectively provided bygap sensor the integral of signal of acceleration sensor andcurrent sensor In maglev train project the fault probabilityof current sensor is lower because the sensor is installedinside the crate and possesses a good operating conditionTo solve the problem of gap connection the gap sensoruses triplication redundancy configuration so that fault inone gap sensor would not affect the acquisition of the gapsignal In order to acquire the vibration information in thesuspension electromagnet the acceleration sensor is installedon the electromagnet As a result it is more likely to fail [6]Therefore this paper mainly targets the fault detection of theacceleration sensor
The core of fault detection by means of signal processingis to find a relatively stable velocity reference signal beforeand after the fault Having a low fault probability due to itsadoption of triplication redundancy configuration in maglevproject the reference signal can be required from gap sensorAnd then fault detection of the acceleration sensor can beconducted by comparing the reference signal and the integral

of the acceleration sensor signal In this paper the velocitysignal of system is acquired by using the tracking differentia-tor Tracking differentiator with obvious flutter phenomenonand requirement of high-frequency adjustment of controlvariable is unacceptable for the practical control systembecause the high-frequency change needs to consume muchenergy and the high-frequency perturbation of trackingsignal indicates the abrasion of mechanical deviceThereforethis paper aims at optimizing the parts that have overshooterror or flutter phenomenon on the basis of the approximatelinear tracking differentiator proposed by Han and Yuan [16]By optimizing the deviation of control algorithm whereverthe states locate within or beyond the two-step reachableregion the flutter problem can be solvedAnd an approximatelinear tracking differentiator (hereinafter referred to as 119865119905119889)that does not contain the square roots algorithm and whoseform is simple and whose implement action is easy can beacquired
3 An Optimized Approximate Linear TrackingDifferentiator Algorithm
According to part 2 the key to the fault detection of theacceleration sensor for the suspension system of maglevtrain is to obtain the efficient velocity signal as the referencesignal Gaining the differential signal rapidly and accuratelyand restraining the noise in the signal have always beenan important topic Tracking differentiator (TD) can trackthe input signal and extract of appropriate differential sig-nal effectively which make it increasingly popular amongresearchers Khalil and some other researchers [19 20]designed a linear high-gain differentiator which providesthe derivatives of signal from 1 to (119899 minus 1) The trackingdifferentiator based on bang-bang control is actually a kind ofsliding differentiator Researchers such as Levant [21ndash24] andUtkin [25 26] have done a series of studies on the featuresof sliding differentiator They applied this differentiator tofiltering sliding-mode control parameter estimation and soforth and have obtained certain achievements Han and Yuan[16] proposed a discrete tracking differentiator based on thesecond order time-optimal control system and applied it toactive-disturbance-rejection control (ADRC) [27] It solvesthe complex problems of disturbance observation trackingcontrol and parameter estimation better and has a goodrobust stability In the meantime Xie proposed a second-order nonlinear discrete tracking differentiator based on theresearch of Han that is able to amend its characteristic pointsand is flexible to applications And Xie applied this differen-tiator to the velocity and position detection of a permanentmagnet electrodynamicmaglev train system [28] To simplifythe discrete tracking differentiator Han [29] proposes a kindof approximate linear discrete tracking differentiator in hisbook Active-Disturbance-Rejection Controller CompensationTechnology taking the features of two-step reachable regionand the reversion of switching curve into considerationHowever the tracking trajectory obtained according to thefinal formula in this book has problems of overshoot andflutter which makes it difficult to promote and apply This
part discusses the simplification of the approximate linearand points out the disadvantage of the approximate linearformula in [29] Finally this part gives an optimized approx-imate linear discrete formula The simulation results showerror between the TD of Han and the two other differentlinear approximate formulas respectively

When the second-order integrator system is dispersedsimply the system would generate unsatisfactory high-frequency flutter after it stabilizes It is a challenge to boththe study and application of rapid tracking differentiator Afurther research on the reasons for flutter is a must Theboundary characteristic curves of linear regions with thesecond-order discrete time-optimal control are presentedusing the method of the state back step by Han And bymeans of it Han designed a brilliant method that avoided theflutter According to the algorithm of the discrete trackingdifferentiator in document [29] it can be assumed that thediscrete step is ℎ any point on the phase plane is119872(119909

Apparently formula (6) contains the square roots algo-rithm which complicated the whole algorithm and increasedthe calculationThis is inefficient for the practical engineeringapplication In formula (5) Ω

To further discuss formula (9) a conclusion can be drawnthat if 119872(119909
1 1199092) on the phase plan is within the two-step
reachable region namely |119910| le 119889 cap |119911| le 119889 119872 sube Ω119903 then
it can obtain that 119878119910119878119911= 1 119906 = minus119903
119911 But the actual algorithm
should be 119906 = minus119911ℎ2 by computation when 119872(119909
1 1199092) is
within the two-step reachable region Besides taking thepoint beyond the two-step reachable region into accountnamely 119878
119910119878119885
= 1 119906 = minus119903(sgn(119911) + sgn(119886)) the actualreversion algorithm is 119906 = minus119903 sgn(119886) so naturally differencealso exists here Therefore the conclusion can be drawn thatthe approximate linear algorithm (9) in document [29] ispartially erred and the right algorithm should be formula (8)
According to the analysis of formula (9) there is aredundant sgn(119911) both within and beyond the reachableregion and factor 119889 is missing for the item with 119911 The correctformula is as follows
119906 = minus119903 (119911

Formula (11) is completely equal to formula (8) whichis a correction of formula (9) Thus this formula showsthe disadvantage of document [29] by Han and corrects theshortcoming
33 Comparison of the Numerical Simulation Result Tocompare the errors of the two approximates against the TD ofHan we can compare the phase path of a point on the phaseplane firstly and then study the difference with the trackinginput signal and differential signal
(1) The Time-Optimal Trajectory on the Phase PlaneTD algorithm of Han is formula (6) and here is expressed
as 119865ℎ119886119899 Its approximate algorithm before correction isformula (9) which is recorded as 119865ℎ1198861198991 And the newapproximate algorithm (11) is displayed as 119865119905119889 The result isas shown in Figure 4
As shown in Figure 4 algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 (formula (9))deviated from the switching curve with overshoot and wind-ing phenomenon which is largely different from 119865ℎ119886119899 Butalgorithm 119865119905119889 is slightly deviated from the switching curveand has slight deviation with algorithm 119865ℎ119886119899 According toFigure 3 the algorithm of 119865119905119889 that is the approximate one ofTD is a feasible linear approximate algorithm But formula(10) is largely deviated which is apparently disadvantaged

It is defined as follows input signal as V(119905) = sin(025120587119905)+120574(119905) sampling period as ℎ = 001 s rapid factor as 119903 = 120the original value as 119909

As shown in Figure 5 the deviation of algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 islarger and flutter of it is severer while algorithm 119865119905119889 iscloser to119865ℎ119886119899 And as Figure 6 shows the approximate linearalgorithm 119865119905119889 is very close to algorithm 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865ℎ1198861198991

where the state vector is 119909(119905) = [1199091 119909211990931199094] and the
first two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe variation of the gap on the left-side and right-side sensoragainst the steady-state value namely the gap deviation Andthe last two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe vertical speed of train of the left-side and right-sidesensor All tracks of the maglev train during simulation aredeemed smooth
The two single electromagnets in the electromagnetmodule are symmetricalWithout loss of generality here takethe acceleration sensor of the left-side single electromagnethaving fault as an example to simulate In order to verifythe tracking and differential extraction ability in these threealgorithms the parameters in algorithms of119865ℎ119886119899119865ℎ1198861198991 and119865119905119889 are set with one accord
Figure 7 to Figure 9 demonstrate the simulation of theleft-side signal when system is fault-free Figure 7 showsthe gap deviation and the tracking status of three kindsof tracking differentiators Figure 8 displays comparison ofthe gap differential signal gained from three tracking differ-entiators and the acceleration integral signal And Figure 9displays the absolute 119863-value (residual for short) betweenthe gap differential signal obtained by the three trackingdifferentiators and the acceleration integral signal

of maglev train the gap deviation signal is included the whitenoise signal that is distributed evenly In other words thedifferential signals and gap signal must have signal-like noisewhich is not affected by external disturbance The simulationresults also indicate that 119865ℎ1198861198991 is very sensitive to noiseand it is unable to process the noise and further obtain thetracking and differential signal To some degree 119865ℎ1198861198991 is notapplicable in the maglev train system A conclusion can bedrawn that the tracking and differential extraction ability ofthe two tracking differentiators in algorithms 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865119905119889are approximate And both of themhave a goodfiltering effecton the gap signal In addition their noise arising from gapdifferential is also within the minor magnitude
Figures 10 11 and 12 demonstrate the simulation resultsof left-side acceleration sensor when a fault has occurred at05 seconds (ie output as 0)
As can be seen from Figure 10 the system begins toshake and diverge when the left-side accelerations sensorfails But at the same time the tracking differentiator stillcan track and extract differential signal of the gap signalto a certain extent However the tracking and differentialextraction of noise signal from algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 is not goodaccording to the simulation results All the signals obtainedfrom 119865ℎ1198861198991 algorithm in this system are useless When theleft-side acceleration sensor fails the acceleration integralvalue remains the same and it makes gap differential valueand the gap signal shake and diverge which leads to bigger

As can be seen from part 2 it is much likely to breakdown in acceleration sensor in the suspension control systemof maglev train Fault-tolerant control can be conductedby replacing the acceleration integral signal with the gapdifferential signal extracted by the optimized approximatelinear tracking differentiator when the acceleration sensorfails The specific schematic diagram of the scheme is shownin Figures 1ndash5 where gap differential 1199111015840 is the gap signalprocessed by differentiator and acceleration integrated signalint 119886 is acceleration signal processed by integrator and decisioncontent 119889 and threshold value 119905ℎ119903 are processed by the faultdetection unit based on the difference between 119911
1015840 and int 119886Signal 119904 is obtained based on the relationship between 119889
and 119905ℎ119903 The controller then makes the choice between 1199111015840
and int 119886 according to the difference of 119904 int 119886 is regardedas the velocity feedback when system is normal but whenfault is detected in accelerometer by fault detection unit1199111015840 is regarded as the velocity feedback Thus fault-tolerantcontrol of accelerometer fault is realized Figure 14 shows theintroduction of the speed signal 1199111015840 obtained from the trackingdifferentiator into the closed loop feedback control after theacceleration sensor fails during the experiment The resultshows that the introduction of the speed signal obtainedfrom the tracking differentiator into the feedback control canstabilize the system which is fault-tolerant control

of the acceleration sensor signal In this paper the velocitysignal of system is acquired by using the tracking differentia-tor Tracking differentiator with obvious flutter phenomenonand requirement of high-frequency adjustment of controlvariable is unacceptable for the practical control systembecause the high-frequency change needs to consume muchenergy and the high-frequency perturbation of trackingsignal indicates the abrasion of mechanical deviceThereforethis paper aims at optimizing the parts that have overshooterror or flutter phenomenon on the basis of the approximatelinear tracking differentiator proposed by Han and Yuan [16]By optimizing the deviation of control algorithm whereverthe states locate within or beyond the two-step reachableregion the flutter problem can be solvedAnd an approximatelinear tracking differentiator (hereinafter referred to as 119865119905119889)that does not contain the square roots algorithm and whoseform is simple and whose implement action is easy can beacquired
3 An Optimized Approximate Linear TrackingDifferentiator Algorithm
According to part 2 the key to the fault detection of theacceleration sensor for the suspension system of maglevtrain is to obtain the efficient velocity signal as the referencesignal Gaining the differential signal rapidly and accuratelyand restraining the noise in the signal have always beenan important topic Tracking differentiator (TD) can trackthe input signal and extract of appropriate differential sig-nal effectively which make it increasingly popular amongresearchers Khalil and some other researchers [19 20]designed a linear high-gain differentiator which providesthe derivatives of signal from 1 to (119899 minus 1) The trackingdifferentiator based on bang-bang control is actually a kind ofsliding differentiator Researchers such as Levant [21ndash24] andUtkin [25 26] have done a series of studies on the featuresof sliding differentiator They applied this differentiator tofiltering sliding-mode control parameter estimation and soforth and have obtained certain achievements Han and Yuan[16] proposed a discrete tracking differentiator based on thesecond order time-optimal control system and applied it toactive-disturbance-rejection control (ADRC) [27] It solvesthe complex problems of disturbance observation trackingcontrol and parameter estimation better and has a goodrobust stability In the meantime Xie proposed a second-order nonlinear discrete tracking differentiator based on theresearch of Han that is able to amend its characteristic pointsand is flexible to applications And Xie applied this differen-tiator to the velocity and position detection of a permanentmagnet electrodynamicmaglev train system [28] To simplifythe discrete tracking differentiator Han [29] proposes a kindof approximate linear discrete tracking differentiator in hisbook Active-Disturbance-Rejection Controller CompensationTechnology taking the features of two-step reachable regionand the reversion of switching curve into considerationHowever the tracking trajectory obtained according to thefinal formula in this book has problems of overshoot andflutter which makes it difficult to promote and apply This
part discusses the simplification of the approximate linearand points out the disadvantage of the approximate linearformula in [29] Finally this part gives an optimized approx-imate linear discrete formula The simulation results showerror between the TD of Han and the two other differentlinear approximate formulas respectively

When the second-order integrator system is dispersedsimply the system would generate unsatisfactory high-frequency flutter after it stabilizes It is a challenge to boththe study and application of rapid tracking differentiator Afurther research on the reasons for flutter is a must Theboundary characteristic curves of linear regions with thesecond-order discrete time-optimal control are presentedusing the method of the state back step by Han And bymeans of it Han designed a brilliant method that avoided theflutter According to the algorithm of the discrete trackingdifferentiator in document [29] it can be assumed that thediscrete step is ℎ any point on the phase plane is119872(119909

To further discuss formula (9) a conclusion can be drawnthat if 119872(119909
1 1199092) on the phase plan is within the two-step
reachable region namely |119910| le 119889 cap |119911| le 119889 119872 sube Ω119903 then
it can obtain that 119878119910119878119911= 1 119906 = minus119903
119911 But the actual algorithm
should be 119906 = minus119911ℎ2 by computation when 119872(119909
1 1199092) is
within the two-step reachable region Besides taking thepoint beyond the two-step reachable region into accountnamely 119878
119910119878119885
= 1 119906 = minus119903(sgn(119911) + sgn(119886)) the actualreversion algorithm is 119906 = minus119903 sgn(119886) so naturally differencealso exists here Therefore the conclusion can be drawn thatthe approximate linear algorithm (9) in document [29] ispartially erred and the right algorithm should be formula (8)
According to the analysis of formula (9) there is aredundant sgn(119911) both within and beyond the reachableregion and factor 119889 is missing for the item with 119911 The correctformula is as follows
119906 = minus119903 (119911
119889minus sgn (119886) 119878

Formula (11) is completely equal to formula (8) whichis a correction of formula (9) Thus this formula showsthe disadvantage of document [29] by Han and corrects theshortcoming
33 Comparison of the Numerical Simulation Result Tocompare the errors of the two approximates against the TD ofHan we can compare the phase path of a point on the phaseplane firstly and then study the difference with the trackinginput signal and differential signal

as 119865ℎ119886119899 Its approximate algorithm before correction isformula (9) which is recorded as 119865ℎ1198861198991 And the newapproximate algorithm (11) is displayed as 119865119905119889 The result isas shown in Figure 4
As shown in Figure 4 algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 (formula (9))deviated from the switching curve with overshoot and wind-ing phenomenon which is largely different from 119865ℎ119886119899 Butalgorithm 119865119905119889 is slightly deviated from the switching curveand has slight deviation with algorithm 119865ℎ119886119899 According toFigure 3 the algorithm of 119865119905119889 that is the approximate one ofTD is a feasible linear approximate algorithm But formula(10) is largely deviated which is apparently disadvantaged

(2) The following simulation is the comparison for threedifferent TD algorithms (119865ℎ1198861198991 119865ℎ119886119899 119865119905119889) by using a com-mon input signal to illustrate the ability of tracking inputsignal and extracting relevant differential signal of them
It is defined as follows input signal as V(119905) = sin(025120587119905)+120574(119905) sampling period as ℎ = 001 s rapid factor as 119903 = 120the original value as 119909

2(0) = minus1 and 120574(119905) as the
evenly distributed white noise with intensity as 0001 Basedon the discrete model of (4) the analysis and comparison ofthe three algorithms119865ℎ119886119899 119865ℎ1198861198991 and119865119905119889 against the earliermentioned tracking error of sinusoidal signal and differentialerror of the obtained signal is as in Figures 5 and 6
As shown in Figure 5 the deviation of algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 islarger and flutter of it is severer while algorithm 119865119905119889 iscloser to119865ℎ119886119899 And as Figure 6 shows the approximate linearalgorithm 119865119905119889 is very close to algorithm 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865ℎ1198861198991
has larger deviation and flutter phenomenon Under thecircumstances of input signal having noise the deviations ofboth the tracking signal and differential signal for 119865ℎ1198861198991are large To some extent the differential signal of algo-rithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 is unavailable in practical system In terms of

According to the optimal control theory the feedback controlalgorithm can be obtained as follows
119906 (119905) = 119870119909 (119905) = [
12188 0 265 minus19
0 12188 minus19 265] 119909 (119905) (13)
where the state vector is 119909(119905) = [1199091 119909211990931199094] and the
first two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe variation of the gap on the left-side and right-side sensoragainst the steady-state value namely the gap deviation Andthe last two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe vertical speed of train of the left-side and right-sidesensor All tracks of the maglev train during simulation aredeemed smooth
The two single electromagnets in the electromagnetmodule are symmetricalWithout loss of generality here takethe acceleration sensor of the left-side single electromagnethaving fault as an example to simulate In order to verifythe tracking and differential extraction ability in these threealgorithms the parameters in algorithms of119865ℎ119886119899119865ℎ1198861198991 and119865119905119889 are set with one accord
Figure 7 to Figure 9 demonstrate the simulation of theleft-side signal when system is fault-free Figure 7 showsthe gap deviation and the tracking status of three kindsof tracking differentiators Figure 8 displays comparison ofthe gap differential signal gained from three tracking differ-entiators and the acceleration integral signal And Figure 9displays the absolute 119863-value (residual for short) betweenthe gap differential signal obtained by the three trackingdifferentiators and the acceleration integral signal

of maglev train the gap deviation signal is included the whitenoise signal that is distributed evenly In other words thedifferential signals and gap signal must have signal-like noisewhich is not affected by external disturbance The simulationresults also indicate that 119865ℎ1198861198991 is very sensitive to noiseand it is unable to process the noise and further obtain thetracking and differential signal To some degree 119865ℎ1198861198991 is notapplicable in the maglev train system A conclusion can bedrawn that the tracking and differential extraction ability ofthe two tracking differentiators in algorithms 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865119905119889are approximate And both of themhave a goodfiltering effecton the gap signal In addition their noise arising from gapdifferential is also within the minor magnitude
Figures 10 11 and 12 demonstrate the simulation resultsof left-side acceleration sensor when a fault has occurred at05 seconds (ie output as 0)
As can be seen from Figure 10 the system begins toshake and diverge when the left-side accelerations sensorfails But at the same time the tracking differentiator stillcan track and extract differential signal of the gap signalto a certain extent However the tracking and differentialextraction of noise signal from algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 is not goodaccording to the simulation results All the signals obtainedfrom 119865ℎ1198861198991 algorithm in this system are useless When theleft-side acceleration sensor fails the acceleration integralvalue remains the same and it makes gap differential valueand the gap signal shake and diverge which leads to bigger

5 Fault-Tolerant Control ofAcceleration Sensor
As can be seen from part 2 it is much likely to breakdown in acceleration sensor in the suspension control systemof maglev train Fault-tolerant control can be conductedby replacing the acceleration integral signal with the gapdifferential signal extracted by the optimized approximatelinear tracking differentiator when the acceleration sensorfails The specific schematic diagram of the scheme is shownin Figures 1ndash5 where gap differential 1199111015840 is the gap signalprocessed by differentiator and acceleration integrated signalint 119886 is acceleration signal processed by integrator and decisioncontent 119889 and threshold value 119905ℎ119903 are processed by the faultdetection unit based on the difference between 119911
1015840 and int 119886Signal 119904 is obtained based on the relationship between 119889
and 119905ℎ119903 The controller then makes the choice between 1199111015840
and int 119886 according to the difference of 119904 int 119886 is regardedas the velocity feedback when system is normal but whenfault is detected in accelerometer by fault detection unit1199111015840 is regarded as the velocity feedback Thus fault-tolerantcontrol of accelerometer fault is realized Figure 14 shows theintroduction of the speed signal 1199111015840 obtained from the trackingdifferentiator into the closed loop feedback control after theacceleration sensor fails during the experiment The resultshows that the introduction of the speed signal obtainedfrom the tracking differentiator into the feedback control canstabilize the system which is fault-tolerant control

To further discuss formula (9) a conclusion can be drawnthat if 119872(119909
1 1199092) on the phase plan is within the two-step
reachable region namely |119910| le 119889 cap |119911| le 119889 119872 sube Ω119903 then
it can obtain that 119878119910119878119911= 1 119906 = minus119903
119911 But the actual algorithm
should be 119906 = minus119911ℎ2 by computation when 119872(119909
1 1199092) is
within the two-step reachable region Besides taking thepoint beyond the two-step reachable region into accountnamely 119878
119910119878119885
= 1 119906 = minus119903(sgn(119911) + sgn(119886)) the actualreversion algorithm is 119906 = minus119903 sgn(119886) so naturally differencealso exists here Therefore the conclusion can be drawn thatthe approximate linear algorithm (9) in document [29] ispartially erred and the right algorithm should be formula (8)
According to the analysis of formula (9) there is aredundant sgn(119911) both within and beyond the reachableregion and factor 119889 is missing for the item with 119911 The correctformula is as follows
119906 = minus119903 (119911

Formula (11) is completely equal to formula (8) whichis a correction of formula (9) Thus this formula showsthe disadvantage of document [29] by Han and corrects theshortcoming
33 Comparison of the Numerical Simulation Result Tocompare the errors of the two approximates against the TD ofHan we can compare the phase path of a point on the phaseplane firstly and then study the difference with the trackinginput signal and differential signal
(1) The Time-Optimal Trajectory on the Phase PlaneTD algorithm of Han is formula (6) and here is expressed
as 119865ℎ119886119899 Its approximate algorithm before correction isformula (9) which is recorded as 119865ℎ1198861198991 And the newapproximate algorithm (11) is displayed as 119865119905119889 The result isas shown in Figure 4
As shown in Figure 4 algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 (formula (9))deviated from the switching curve with overshoot and wind-ing phenomenon which is largely different from 119865ℎ119886119899 Butalgorithm 119865119905119889 is slightly deviated from the switching curveand has slight deviation with algorithm 119865ℎ119886119899 According toFigure 3 the algorithm of 119865119905119889 that is the approximate one ofTD is a feasible linear approximate algorithm But formula(10) is largely deviated which is apparently disadvantaged

It is defined as follows input signal as V(119905) = sin(025120587119905)+120574(119905) sampling period as ℎ = 001 s rapid factor as 119903 = 120the original value as 119909

As shown in Figure 5 the deviation of algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 islarger and flutter of it is severer while algorithm 119865119905119889 iscloser to119865ℎ119886119899 And as Figure 6 shows the approximate linearalgorithm 119865119905119889 is very close to algorithm 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865ℎ1198861198991

where the state vector is 119909(119905) = [1199091 119909211990931199094] and the
first two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe variation of the gap on the left-side and right-side sensoragainst the steady-state value namely the gap deviation Andthe last two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe vertical speed of train of the left-side and right-sidesensor All tracks of the maglev train during simulation aredeemed smooth
The two single electromagnets in the electromagnetmodule are symmetricalWithout loss of generality here takethe acceleration sensor of the left-side single electromagnethaving fault as an example to simulate In order to verifythe tracking and differential extraction ability in these threealgorithms the parameters in algorithms of119865ℎ119886119899119865ℎ1198861198991 and119865119905119889 are set with one accord
Figure 7 to Figure 9 demonstrate the simulation of theleft-side signal when system is fault-free Figure 7 showsthe gap deviation and the tracking status of three kindsof tracking differentiators Figure 8 displays comparison ofthe gap differential signal gained from three tracking differ-entiators and the acceleration integral signal And Figure 9displays the absolute 119863-value (residual for short) betweenthe gap differential signal obtained by the three trackingdifferentiators and the acceleration integral signal

of maglev train the gap deviation signal is included the whitenoise signal that is distributed evenly In other words thedifferential signals and gap signal must have signal-like noisewhich is not affected by external disturbance The simulationresults also indicate that 119865ℎ1198861198991 is very sensitive to noiseand it is unable to process the noise and further obtain thetracking and differential signal To some degree 119865ℎ1198861198991 is notapplicable in the maglev train system A conclusion can bedrawn that the tracking and differential extraction ability ofthe two tracking differentiators in algorithms 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865119905119889are approximate And both of themhave a goodfiltering effecton the gap signal In addition their noise arising from gapdifferential is also within the minor magnitude
Figures 10 11 and 12 demonstrate the simulation resultsof left-side acceleration sensor when a fault has occurred at05 seconds (ie output as 0)
As can be seen from Figure 10 the system begins toshake and diverge when the left-side accelerations sensorfails But at the same time the tracking differentiator stillcan track and extract differential signal of the gap signalto a certain extent However the tracking and differentialextraction of noise signal from algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 is not goodaccording to the simulation results All the signals obtainedfrom 119865ℎ1198861198991 algorithm in this system are useless When theleft-side acceleration sensor fails the acceleration integralvalue remains the same and it makes gap differential valueand the gap signal shake and diverge which leads to bigger

5 Fault-Tolerant Control ofAcceleration Sensor
As can be seen from part 2 it is much likely to breakdown in acceleration sensor in the suspension control systemof maglev train Fault-tolerant control can be conductedby replacing the acceleration integral signal with the gapdifferential signal extracted by the optimized approximatelinear tracking differentiator when the acceleration sensorfails The specific schematic diagram of the scheme is shownin Figures 1ndash5 where gap differential 1199111015840 is the gap signalprocessed by differentiator and acceleration integrated signalint 119886 is acceleration signal processed by integrator and decisioncontent 119889 and threshold value 119905ℎ119903 are processed by the faultdetection unit based on the difference between 119911
1015840 and int 119886Signal 119904 is obtained based on the relationship between 119889
and 119905ℎ119903 The controller then makes the choice between 1199111015840
and int 119886 according to the difference of 119904 int 119886 is regardedas the velocity feedback when system is normal but whenfault is detected in accelerometer by fault detection unit1199111015840 is regarded as the velocity feedback Thus fault-tolerantcontrol of accelerometer fault is realized Figure 14 shows theintroduction of the speed signal 1199111015840 obtained from the trackingdifferentiator into the closed loop feedback control after theacceleration sensor fails during the experiment The resultshows that the introduction of the speed signal obtainedfrom the tracking differentiator into the feedback control canstabilize the system which is fault-tolerant control

Formula (11) is completely equal to formula (8) whichis a correction of formula (9) Thus this formula showsthe disadvantage of document [29] by Han and corrects theshortcoming
33 Comparison of the Numerical Simulation Result Tocompare the errors of the two approximates against the TD ofHan we can compare the phase path of a point on the phaseplane firstly and then study the difference with the trackinginput signal and differential signal
(1) The Time-Optimal Trajectory on the Phase PlaneTD algorithm of Han is formula (6) and here is expressed
as 119865ℎ119886119899 Its approximate algorithm before correction isformula (9) which is recorded as 119865ℎ1198861198991 And the newapproximate algorithm (11) is displayed as 119865119905119889 The result isas shown in Figure 4
As shown in Figure 4 algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 (formula (9))deviated from the switching curve with overshoot and wind-ing phenomenon which is largely different from 119865ℎ119886119899 Butalgorithm 119865119905119889 is slightly deviated from the switching curveand has slight deviation with algorithm 119865ℎ119886119899 According toFigure 3 the algorithm of 119865119905119889 that is the approximate one ofTD is a feasible linear approximate algorithm But formula(10) is largely deviated which is apparently disadvantaged

(2) The following simulation is the comparison for threedifferent TD algorithms (119865ℎ1198861198991 119865ℎ119886119899 119865119905119889) by using a com-mon input signal to illustrate the ability of tracking inputsignal and extracting relevant differential signal of them
It is defined as follows input signal as V(119905) = sin(025120587119905)+120574(119905) sampling period as ℎ = 001 s rapid factor as 119903 = 120the original value as 119909
1(0) = 02 119909
2(0) = minus1 and 120574(119905) as the
evenly distributed white noise with intensity as 0001 Basedon the discrete model of (4) the analysis and comparison ofthe three algorithms119865ℎ119886119899 119865ℎ1198861198991 and119865119905119889 against the earliermentioned tracking error of sinusoidal signal and differentialerror of the obtained signal is as in Figures 5 and 6
As shown in Figure 5 the deviation of algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 islarger and flutter of it is severer while algorithm 119865119905119889 iscloser to119865ℎ119886119899 And as Figure 6 shows the approximate linearalgorithm 119865119905119889 is very close to algorithm 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865ℎ1198861198991
has larger deviation and flutter phenomenon Under thecircumstances of input signal having noise the deviations ofboth the tracking signal and differential signal for 119865ℎ1198861198991are large To some extent the differential signal of algo-rithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 is unavailable in practical system In terms of

According to the optimal control theory the feedback controlalgorithm can be obtained as follows
119906 (119905) = 119870119909 (119905) = [
12188 0 265 minus19
0 12188 minus19 265] 119909 (119905) (13)
where the state vector is 119909(119905) = [1199091 119909211990931199094] and the
first two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe variation of the gap on the left-side and right-side sensoragainst the steady-state value namely the gap deviation Andthe last two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe vertical speed of train of the left-side and right-sidesensor All tracks of the maglev train during simulation aredeemed smooth
The two single electromagnets in the electromagnetmodule are symmetricalWithout loss of generality here takethe acceleration sensor of the left-side single electromagnethaving fault as an example to simulate In order to verifythe tracking and differential extraction ability in these threealgorithms the parameters in algorithms of119865ℎ119886119899119865ℎ1198861198991 and119865119905119889 are set with one accord
Figure 7 to Figure 9 demonstrate the simulation of theleft-side signal when system is fault-free Figure 7 showsthe gap deviation and the tracking status of three kindsof tracking differentiators Figure 8 displays comparison ofthe gap differential signal gained from three tracking differ-entiators and the acceleration integral signal And Figure 9displays the absolute 119863-value (residual for short) betweenthe gap differential signal obtained by the three trackingdifferentiators and the acceleration integral signal

of maglev train the gap deviation signal is included the whitenoise signal that is distributed evenly In other words thedifferential signals and gap signal must have signal-like noisewhich is not affected by external disturbance The simulationresults also indicate that 119865ℎ1198861198991 is very sensitive to noiseand it is unable to process the noise and further obtain thetracking and differential signal To some degree 119865ℎ1198861198991 is notapplicable in the maglev train system A conclusion can bedrawn that the tracking and differential extraction ability ofthe two tracking differentiators in algorithms 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865119905119889are approximate And both of themhave a goodfiltering effecton the gap signal In addition their noise arising from gapdifferential is also within the minor magnitude
Figures 10 11 and 12 demonstrate the simulation resultsof left-side acceleration sensor when a fault has occurred at05 seconds (ie output as 0)
As can be seen from Figure 10 the system begins toshake and diverge when the left-side accelerations sensorfails But at the same time the tracking differentiator stillcan track and extract differential signal of the gap signalto a certain extent However the tracking and differentialextraction of noise signal from algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 is not goodaccording to the simulation results All the signals obtainedfrom 119865ℎ1198861198991 algorithm in this system are useless When theleft-side acceleration sensor fails the acceleration integralvalue remains the same and it makes gap differential valueand the gap signal shake and diverge which leads to bigger

5 Fault-Tolerant Control ofAcceleration Sensor
As can be seen from part 2 it is much likely to breakdown in acceleration sensor in the suspension control systemof maglev train Fault-tolerant control can be conductedby replacing the acceleration integral signal with the gapdifferential signal extracted by the optimized approximatelinear tracking differentiator when the acceleration sensorfails The specific schematic diagram of the scheme is shownin Figures 1ndash5 where gap differential 1199111015840 is the gap signalprocessed by differentiator and acceleration integrated signalint 119886 is acceleration signal processed by integrator and decisioncontent 119889 and threshold value 119905ℎ119903 are processed by the faultdetection unit based on the difference between 119911
1015840 and int 119886Signal 119904 is obtained based on the relationship between 119889
and 119905ℎ119903 The controller then makes the choice between 1199111015840
and int 119886 according to the difference of 119904 int 119886 is regardedas the velocity feedback when system is normal but whenfault is detected in accelerometer by fault detection unit1199111015840 is regarded as the velocity feedback Thus fault-tolerantcontrol of accelerometer fault is realized Figure 14 shows theintroduction of the speed signal 1199111015840 obtained from the trackingdifferentiator into the closed loop feedback control after theacceleration sensor fails during the experiment The resultshows that the introduction of the speed signal obtainedfrom the tracking differentiator into the feedback control canstabilize the system which is fault-tolerant control
Figure 15 shows the ultimate gap deviation curve afterintroducing the speed signal 119911
1015840 obtained by 119865119905119889 algo-rithm when the acceleration sensor fails during experimentFigure 16 shows the ultimate absolute stable gap value (thesuspension gap is between 453mm and 454mm whenthe maglev train is in stable state) after introducing thefault-tolerant control During the experiment the closureof acceleration sensor power is performed to simulate thefault of acceleration sensor And then speed signal 1199111015840 isintroduced at the first second when the system detects faultThe experimental result shows that the introduction of thespeed signal acquired from the tracking differentiator into thefeedback control can make system stable

According to the optimal control theory the feedback controlalgorithm can be obtained as follows
119906 (119905) = 119870119909 (119905) = [
12188 0 265 minus19
0 12188 minus19 265] 119909 (119905) (13)
where the state vector is 119909(119905) = [1199091 119909211990931199094] and the
first two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe variation of the gap on the left-side and right-side sensoragainst the steady-state value namely the gap deviation Andthe last two elements in the state vector respectively indicatethe vertical speed of train of the left-side and right-sidesensor All tracks of the maglev train during simulation aredeemed smooth
The two single electromagnets in the electromagnetmodule are symmetricalWithout loss of generality here takethe acceleration sensor of the left-side single electromagnethaving fault as an example to simulate In order to verifythe tracking and differential extraction ability in these threealgorithms the parameters in algorithms of119865ℎ119886119899119865ℎ1198861198991 and119865119905119889 are set with one accord
Figure 7 to Figure 9 demonstrate the simulation of theleft-side signal when system is fault-free Figure 7 showsthe gap deviation and the tracking status of three kindsof tracking differentiators Figure 8 displays comparison ofthe gap differential signal gained from three tracking differ-entiators and the acceleration integral signal And Figure 9displays the absolute 119863-value (residual for short) betweenthe gap differential signal obtained by the three trackingdifferentiators and the acceleration integral signal

of maglev train the gap deviation signal is included the whitenoise signal that is distributed evenly In other words thedifferential signals and gap signal must have signal-like noisewhich is not affected by external disturbance The simulationresults also indicate that 119865ℎ1198861198991 is very sensitive to noiseand it is unable to process the noise and further obtain thetracking and differential signal To some degree 119865ℎ1198861198991 is notapplicable in the maglev train system A conclusion can bedrawn that the tracking and differential extraction ability ofthe two tracking differentiators in algorithms 119865ℎ119886119899 and 119865119905119889are approximate And both of themhave a goodfiltering effecton the gap signal In addition their noise arising from gapdifferential is also within the minor magnitude
Figures 10 11 and 12 demonstrate the simulation resultsof left-side acceleration sensor when a fault has occurred at05 seconds (ie output as 0)
As can be seen from Figure 10 the system begins toshake and diverge when the left-side accelerations sensorfails But at the same time the tracking differentiator stillcan track and extract differential signal of the gap signalto a certain extent However the tracking and differentialextraction of noise signal from algorithm 119865ℎ1198861198991 is not goodaccording to the simulation results All the signals obtainedfrom 119865ℎ1198861198991 algorithm in this system are useless When theleft-side acceleration sensor fails the acceleration integralvalue remains the same and it makes gap differential valueand the gap signal shake and diverge which leads to bigger

5 Fault-Tolerant Control ofAcceleration Sensor
As can be seen from part 2 it is much likely to breakdown in acceleration sensor in the suspension control systemof maglev train Fault-tolerant control can be conductedby replacing the acceleration integral signal with the gapdifferential signal extracted by the optimized approximatelinear tracking differentiator when the acceleration sensorfails The specific schematic diagram of the scheme is shownin Figures 1ndash5 where gap differential 1199111015840 is the gap signalprocessed by differentiator and acceleration integrated signalint 119886 is acceleration signal processed by integrator and decisioncontent 119889 and threshold value 119905ℎ119903 are processed by the faultdetection unit based on the difference between 119911
1015840 and int 119886Signal 119904 is obtained based on the relationship between 119889
and 119905ℎ119903 The controller then makes the choice between 1199111015840
and int 119886 according to the difference of 119904 int 119886 is regardedas the velocity feedback when system is normal but whenfault is detected in accelerometer by fault detection unit1199111015840 is regarded as the velocity feedback Thus fault-tolerantcontrol of accelerometer fault is realized Figure 14 shows theintroduction of the speed signal 1199111015840 obtained from the trackingdifferentiator into the closed loop feedback control after theacceleration sensor fails during the experiment The resultshows that the introduction of the speed signal obtainedfrom the tracking differentiator into the feedback control canstabilize the system which is fault-tolerant control
Figure 15 shows the ultimate gap deviation curve afterintroducing the speed signal 119911
1015840 obtained by 119865119905119889 algo-rithm when the acceleration sensor fails during experimentFigure 16 shows the ultimate absolute stable gap value (thesuspension gap is between 453mm and 454mm whenthe maglev train is in stable state) after introducing thefault-tolerant control During the experiment the closureof acceleration sensor power is performed to simulate thefault of acceleration sensor And then speed signal 1199111015840 isintroduced at the first second when the system detects faultThe experimental result shows that the introduction of thespeed signal acquired from the tracking differentiator into thefeedback control can make system stable

42 Threshold Selection The selection of the earlier men-tioned threshold is largely subjective In order to improve theinstantaneity of fault detection and to decline the false alarmrate it is necessary to introduce an approach of thresholdselection that is practical and objective This paper calculatesthreshold based on the Bayesian Decision Theory [17] Thealgorithm is as follows

5 Fault-Tolerant Control ofAcceleration Sensor
As can be seen from part 2 it is much likely to breakdown in acceleration sensor in the suspension control systemof maglev train Fault-tolerant control can be conductedby replacing the acceleration integral signal with the gapdifferential signal extracted by the optimized approximatelinear tracking differentiator when the acceleration sensorfails The specific schematic diagram of the scheme is shownin Figures 1ndash5 where gap differential 1199111015840 is the gap signalprocessed by differentiator and acceleration integrated signalint 119886 is acceleration signal processed by integrator and decisioncontent 119889 and threshold value 119905ℎ119903 are processed by the faultdetection unit based on the difference between 119911
1015840 and int 119886Signal 119904 is obtained based on the relationship between 119889
and 119905ℎ119903 The controller then makes the choice between 1199111015840
and int 119886 according to the difference of 119904 int 119886 is regardedas the velocity feedback when system is normal but whenfault is detected in accelerometer by fault detection unit1199111015840 is regarded as the velocity feedback Thus fault-tolerantcontrol of accelerometer fault is realized Figure 14 shows theintroduction of the speed signal 1199111015840 obtained from the trackingdifferentiator into the closed loop feedback control after theacceleration sensor fails during the experiment The resultshows that the introduction of the speed signal obtainedfrom the tracking differentiator into the feedback control canstabilize the system which is fault-tolerant control
Figure 15 shows the ultimate gap deviation curve afterintroducing the speed signal 119911
1015840 obtained by 119865119905119889 algo-rithm when the acceleration sensor fails during experimentFigure 16 shows the ultimate absolute stable gap value (thesuspension gap is between 453mm and 454mm whenthe maglev train is in stable state) after introducing thefault-tolerant control During the experiment the closureof acceleration sensor power is performed to simulate thefault of acceleration sensor And then speed signal 1199111015840 isintroduced at the first second when the system detects faultThe experimental result shows that the introduction of thespeed signal acquired from the tracking differentiator into thefeedback control can make system stable
