In aviation navigation using GPS, requirements on availability and integrity must be absolutely satisfied. Current study on accomplishing this integrity includes RAIM(Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring), monitoring integrity internaIly in GPS receiver itself. Parity space technique as one of RAIM techniques has shown the advantages in fault detection and isolation due to each use of its magnitude and direction under the assumption of one fault. ln case of multiple fault, as biases in errors interact decreasing the effect of multiple fault in parity space, the exact fault detection and identification(FDI) may be difficult to be conducted. This paper focuses on FDI study on two faults and explains why parity space techniques applied on single fault is not adequate to the application of multiple fault case and shows that extended parity space technique may improve the performance of RAIM on two faults.

Neural Networks have shown potential to become an attractive alternative to classic methods for identification and control of non-linear dynamic systems. The purpose of this paper is to present an application of neural networks, that is a neural reconstruction of the input signal of a non-linear unknown system. This basic methodology could be used for practical purpose in several engineering fields. Clearly applications of the proposed scheme can be of interest for physical systems where a complete network of sensors measuring system inputs is not available. It should also be emphasized that the application of the reconstruction scheme is of little or no interest when the analyzed system works and operates at nominal conditions. In fact, only when failures and/or system anomailes occur, leasing to performance degradation and/or shutdown, the application of this scheme is of interest. The paper presents the results of the methodology applied to unknown non-linear dynamic systems and the robustness of the scheme to white and colored system noise was evaluated.
