Abstract

This paper studies modular decomposition as an approach for failure diagnosis based on Discrete Event Systems. This paper also analyses the problem of coupling produced in the implementation of centralized modular diagnosers, as coupled diagnosers cannot carry out their own diagnosis task, when there is a failure in another subsystem sharing a common energy or material flow.In addition, we propose a method to avoid diagnoser coupling, by means of decoupling functions using non-local information with respect to the coupled diagnoser and generated in the diagnoser where the failure has been isolated.
