الوصف: Sensor selection is critical for state estimation, control and monitoring of nonlinear processes. However, evaluating the performance of each possible combination of $m$ out of $n$ sensors is impractical unless $m$ and $n$ are small. In this paper, we propose a sensitivity-based approach to determine the minimum number of sensors and their optimal locations for state estimation. The local sensitivity matrix of the measured outputs to initial states is used as a measure of the observability. The minimum number of sensors is determined in a way such that the local sensitivity matrix is full column rank. The subset of sensors that satisfies the full-rank condition and provides the maximum degree of observability is considered as the optimal sensor placement. Successive orthogonalization of the sensitivity matrix is conducted in the proposed approach to significantly reduce the computational complexity in selecting the sensors. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, it is applied to two processes including a chemical process consisting of four continuous stirred-tank reactors and a wastewater treatment plant. In both cases, the proposed approach can obtain the optimal sensor subsets.
