Abstract
The main objective of this paper is to reject faults
tolerant like sensor deterioration, noise, disturbance
and depreciation of the plant in Heating, Ventilating
and Air Conditioning (HVAC) System. a fault tolerant
controller system (FTCS) strategy for temperature
control of air-conditioning system has been proposed.
The setpoint response controller in the FTCS is
designed in terms of insusceptible with noise, failure
sensor, disturbance and parameter variation with
optimal performance specification. According to the
system operation requirement for faults rejection, a
closed-loop for rejecting fault signals is configured. It
is found that the setpoint response, the disturbance
rejection, the noise rejection, the robust, rejection of
failure sensor and the performance of the designed
FTCS are better than conventional PID. Therefore the
residual signal can now be used to monitor faults in
the system while the proposed method ensures
correctness of operation.
Keywords- Noise rejection,  HVAC system,
disturbance rejection, plant parameters variation, fault
tolerant controller, Sensor deterioration.

compatible with HVAC systems where the traditional
PID controller unable to deal with plant has nonlinear,
pure lag and high inertia that are presented in the
HVAC system. Thereby FTC more efficient than PID;
Increased efficiency tends to reduce the cost associated
with operating the HVAC system.

Rejection of sensor deterioration, noise, disturbance and plant parameters

The Second International Conference on Control, Instrumentation and Mechatronic Engineering (CIM09) Malacca, Malaysia, June 2-3, 2009 Rejection of Sensor Deterioration, Noise, Disturbance and Plant Parameters Variation in HVAC System Raad Z.

Mohamed Center for research in Applied Electronics (CRAE) University of Malaya, 50603 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Tel: +60133353502 Email: raadahmood@yahoo.com 1 Department of Electrical & Electronic Engineering The University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus Jalan Broga, 43500 Semenyih, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia E-mail: haider.abbas@nottingham.edu.my Abstract The main objective of this paper is to reject faults tolerant like sensor deterioration, noise, disturbance and depreciation of the plant in Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) System. a fault tolerant controller system (FTCS) strategy for temperature control of air-conditioning system has been proposed. The setpoint response controller in the FTCS is designed in terms of insusceptible with noise, failure sensor, disturbance and parameter variation with optimal performance specification. According to the system operation requirement for faults rejection, a closed-loop for rejecting fault signals is configured. It is found that the setpoint response, the disturbance rejection, the noise rejection, the robust, rejection of failure sensor and the performance of the designed FTCS are better than conventional PID. Therefore the residual signal can now be used to monitor faults in the system while the proposed method ensures correctness of operation. Keywords- Noise rejection,  HVAC system, disturbance rejection, plant parameters variation, fault tolerant controller, Sensor deterioration.
