Abstract

Plants instrumentation is a crucial issue due to the importance of sensors in allowing the observability and in increasing the redundancy and the reliability. Designing a sensor network becomes complicated when the complexity of the system increases. In this paper, a strategy is proposed to design a minimal cost sensor network ensuring the observability of complex systems. The strategy is based on the decomposition of complex systems into subsystems. This decomposition helps in treating each subsystem separately and allows the use of reduced order observers rather than one observer for the whole system.
