Development on Gas Leak Detection and Location System Based on Wireless Sensor Networks

Develops a gas leak detection and location system for the production safety in Petrochemical Industry. The system is based on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), it can collect the data of monitoring sites wirelessly and sent to the computer to update values in the location software. Consequently, it can give a real-time detective of the potential risk area, collect the data of a leak accident and locate the leakage point. However the former systems can not react in time, even can not obtain data from an accident and locate accurately. The paper has three parts, first, gives the overall system design, and then provides the approaches on both hardware and software to achieve it.
