Abstract

The idea of fuzzy inference approach to fault diagnosis in decentralized, single-level diagnostic structures is introduced in this paper. This approach is particularly intended for large scale industrial systems. The novel and practicable on-line fuzzy fault isolation approach in single-level structure is proposed and discussed. The fuzzy approach allows among others the refinement of the diagnoses particularly when taking into account the uncertainty of the fault symptoms. The proposed approach is depicted in an example. The conclusions regarding expected benefits of the decentralized two-level diagnostic structures summarize the paper.
