Sensors, Vol. 18, Pages 1991: A Systematic Survey on Sensor Failure Detection and Fault-Tolerance in Ambient Assisted Living Sensors doi: 10.3390/s18071991 Authors: Nancy E. ElHady Julien Provost Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) systems aim to enable the elderly people to stay active and live independently into older age by monitoring their behaviour, provide the needed assistance and detect early signs of health status deterioration. Non-intrusive sensors are preferred by the elderly to be used for the monitoring purposes. However, false positive or negative triggers of those sensors could lead to a misleading interpretation of the status of the elderlies. This paper presents a systematic literature review of the sensor failure detection and fault tolerance in AAL equipped with non-intrusive, event-driven, binary sensors. The existing works are discussed, and the limitations and research gaps are highlighted.
