摘要
An accurate model of gas emissions is of high importance in several real-world applications related to monitoring and surveillance. Gas tomography is a non-intrusive optical method to estimate the spatial distribution of gas concentrations using remote sensors. The choice of sensing geometry, which is the arrangement of sensing positions to perform gas tomography, directly affects the reconstruction quality of the obtained gas distribution maps. In this paper, we present an investigation of criteria that allow to determine suitable sensing geometries for gas tomography. We consider an actuated remote gas sensor installed on a mobile robot, and evaluated a large number of sensing configurations. Experiments in complex settings were conducted using a state-of-the-art CFD-based filament gas dispersal simulator. Our quantitative comparison yields preferred sensing geometries for sensor planning, which allows to better reconstruct gas distributions.
