In this paper, we present a fault detection approach of a linear parameter varying (LPV) system using residuals generator based on the use of the predictor based LPV subspace identification approach (LPV PBSID). To address this problem of fault detection in the pitch subsystem considered in the wind turbine benchmark introduced in IFAC SAFEPROCESS 2009, the failure events are caused by jumps in the damping ratio and natural frequency values of the model. The damping ratio is increased and the natural frequency is decreased with the hydraulic pressure variation. Satisfactory results have been obtained of the proposed approach using the proposed fault scenarios.
