In this paper, a novel Takagi-Sugeno recurrent fuzzy neural network (TSRFNN) is constructed formodeling and sensor fault diagnosis of a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR), a nonlineardynamic system. The TSRFNN is composed of 9 layers, including premise network and consequencenetwork. The temporal information is embedded in the TSRFNN by adding the feedback connectionsbetween the output layer and the input layer of the fuzzy neural network (FNN). It is assumed thatthe inputs are Gaussian membership functions; the product operation is utilized for the premise andimplication, and the weighted center-average method is adopted for defuzzification. The network is aFuzzy Basis Function(FBF). The general approximation characteristic of the network was proven bythe theory reasoning. The identification of the TSRFNN consists of two steps: structure identificationand parameter identification. Unsupervised clustering is used to determine the structure of the fuzzysystem, the number of fuzzy rules, and the membership functions of the premise using the input-outputdata of a system. Then in the parameter identification, the Dynamic Backpropagation (DBP) isadopted to determine the membership functions of the conclusion of the fuzzy system.

Then the network is applied to the modeling and diagnosis of a CSTR system. The network isapplied to set up the sensors models of a CSTR system, including the models of the temperature sensorfaults and the models of concentration sensor faults. To set up a high performance diagnosis model, apersistent signal was chosen to sufficiently activate the plant. Finally an Adaptive ThresholdAlgorithm based on statistics is used to fault diagnose. If there are sensor faults in the CSTR, thebias between the actual output of the plant and the output of the network surpasses the threshold andthe faults are detected on-line according to it. The effectiveness of the modeling and diagnosisapproach proposed was verified by the simulation results with Matlab.

Therefore, the proposed network and the fault diagnosis approach can be employed to a CSTRsystem successfully and be extended to the modeling and fault detection of other nonlinear systems.
