This article proposes an algebraic method to fault diagnosis for uncertain linear systems. The main advantage of this new approach is to realize fault diagnosis only from knowledge of input and output measurements without identifying explicitly model parameters. Using tools and results of algebraic identification and pseudospectra analysis, the issues of robustness of the pro- posed approach compared to the model order and noise measurement are examined. Numerical examples are provided and discussed to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed fault diagnosis method.
