Event-triggered fault detection for discrete-time LPV systems by Golabi, Arash

“…Toward this goal, based on the concept of input-to-state stability, a new formulation is presented to satisfy the H- performance measures and for each performance index, sufficient conditions are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities problems. It is shown that through two event-triggered data transmission mechanisms, the amount of data sent to the fault detection module is decreased significantly. …”
