Leak detection and localization inwater distribution system using time frequency analysis

Water loss through burst events or leaks is a significant problem affecting water utilities worldwide and is exacerbated by deterioration of the underground infrastructure. This paper shall report on our method to localize the source of a pipe burst by estimating the arrival time of the pressure tra...

description Water loss through burst events or leaks is a significant problem affecting water utilities worldwide and is exacerbated by deterioration of the underground infrastructure. This paper shall report on our method to localize the source of a pipe burst by estimating the arrival time of the pressure transients at sensor nodes. Our proposed method uses Short Time Fourier Transform that has shown to overcome the limitation of Fourier Transform temporal deficiency. The paper will in addition report on the results obtained from a real leakage data obtained on the WaterWiSe@SG test-bed, which shows the superiority of our method compared to multi-level wavelet transform.
