Abstract :
We report on the development of the air quality monitoring and early detection system for an enclosed environment with specific emphasis on manned spacecraft. The proposed monitoring approach is based on the distributed parameter model of contaminant dispersion and real-time contaminant concentration measurements. The implicit Kalman filtering algorithm is used to generate online estimations of the spatial contamination profile, which are used for the air quality monitoring and early detection of an air contamination event
