Fault Detection

Definition of Fault Detection as it relates to Electronics, Computers, Controller Area Network, Controller Area Network Bus

Fault Detection refers to the process of identifying and diagnosing anomalies or malfunctions in electronic systems, computers, and networks such as the Controller Area Network (CAN) or CAN bus. It involves monitoring system parameters, analyzing data, and comparing it against expected behavior to detect deviations that may indicate a fault. The goal is to ensure reliable and safe operation of the system by identifying and addressing issues before they cause significant harm or disruption. Fault Detection techniques can include model-based approaches, statistical methods, machine learning algorithms, and rule-based systems, among others.
