Kinematics-Based Sensor Fault Detection for Autonomous Vehicles Using Real-Time Numerical Differentiation

10 Sep 2023  ·  Shashank Verma, Yousaf Rahman, E. Dogan Sumer, Dennis S. Bernstein ·

Sensor fault detection is of extreme importance for ensuring the safe operation of vehicles. This paper introduces a novel approach to detecting and identifying faulty sensors. For ground vehicles confined to the horizontal plane, this technique is based on six kinematics-based error metrics that are computed in real time by using onboard sensor data encompassing compass, radar, rate gyro, and accelerometer measurements as well as their derivatives. Real-time numerical differentiation is performed by applying the adaptive input and state estimation (AIE/ASE) algorithm. Numerical examples are provided to assess the efficacy of the proposed methodology.
