Abstract

Water utilities owners are facing critical challenges in repairing and maintaining cost of pipeline infrastructure. Leakages in water pipelines cost millions of dollars every year. The need of reliable, continuous and efficient system for pipeline monitoring becomes crucial. WSN is a very promising technology to overcome the pipeline leak detection in an autonomous way. We present in this paper, a WSN system for water pipeline monitoring. A wireless sensor node based on Zynq SoC is developed and simulated. A leak detection algorithm based on Kalman filter is also implemented and accelerated using the Zynq platform. The experimental results show that the usage of high-performance platforms is suitable only if the power management techniques are employed or for video applications.
