Detection and Isolation of actuator and sensor faults of a segmented telescope testbed

Fault Detection and Isolation is one of the necessary requirements to guarantee the stability and performance of a control system under fault conditions. This paper will focus on observer based detection and isolation of actuator and sensor faults for a segmented primary dish telescope testbed using a relationship between sensors. This testbed is located at the Structures Pointing And Control Engineering (SPACE) laboratory at California State University, Los Angeles.
