New MILP Formulation for Instrumentation Network Design and Upgrade
نویسنده
چکیده
The problem of instrumentation network design and upgrade consists of determining the optimal set of instruments to obtain sufficiently accurate and reliable estimates of ®ariables. An existing formulation of the cost optimal sensor network design and up( ) grade problem Bagajewicz, 1997 is in the form of a mathematical programming problem, but it has the disad®antage that the constraints are not stated explicitly in analytical form, forcing therefore a special tree search solution procedure. An alternati®e MILP formulation is presented, which is useful for small to medium size problems, where all constraints are explicit.

Integrated Process Sensor Network Design
Hitherto, instrumentation network design methodologies have been based solely upon sensor capital costs. Within this framework the cost of new instrumentation is minimized subject to constraints indicating the desired level of performance. While, these formulations account for the cost of a network, they do not reflect the potential benefit of adding sensors. To capture this potential profit, w...

The current paper investigates the influence of packet losses in network control systems (NCS’s) using the model predictive control (MPC) strategy. The study focuses on two main network packet losses due to sensor to controller and controller to actuator along the communication paths. A new Markov-based method is employed to recursively estimate the probability of time delay in controller to ac...
