Active fault detection (AFD) is considered an effective incipient failure-detection method. In this paper, an auxiliary input resonance signal proposal that can detect different incipient faults quickly while keeping the system stable is proposed for AFD. To maintain the stability of the system, auxiliary input signals with a sinusoidal form, which should minimize and maximize the effect in fault-free cases and fault cases, are designed on the YJBK parameterization architecture. Subsequently, the fault detection signal is transferred from the traditional system output signal to the cumulative sum of the designed residual signal. Finally, some illustrative examples are given to indicate the effectiveness of the proposed unified operation architecture and some encourage results have been obtained, the simulation results show that the designed auxiliary input signal can not only ensure the normal operation of the system, but also quickly and effectively detect the occurrence of minor faults.
