Signal processing and alarm handling in process control

Abstract
The proper handling of alarms is crucial to automated process control. In practice, many alarms are only distractive and do not represent a fault situation. Here a toolbox, that uses an expert system called LARA, is proposed that aims to reduce the occurrence of so-called nuisance alarms. It is based on a signal classification scheme to propose suitable alarm handling algorithms according to the signals behavior. In a first prototype, a significant reduction of the alarms in a biofueled District Heating Plant has been achieved
