Moving horizon estimation for pipeline leak detection, localization, and constrained size estimation

Junyao Xie, Biao Huang, Stevan Dubljevic

Abstract: Highlights•An infinite-dimensional discrete-time pipe leak model with disturbance is proposed.•A moving horizon estimator (MHE) is designed for constrained leak size estimation.•Discrete-time observer and MHE are designed for leak localization.•Numerical simulation studies are performed to verify the proposed methods.
