In this paper, an SHM system is designed which can recognize the different impact location and impact degree in the composite plate. Firstly, the finite element method is used to simulate the impact, extracting numerical signals of the structure, and the wavelet decomposition is used to extract the band energy. Meanwhile, principal component analysis (PCA) is used to reduce the dimensions of the vibration signal. Following this, the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) is used to optimize the placement of sensors. Finally, the experimental system is established, and the Product-based Neural Network is used to recognize different impact categories. Three sets of experiments are carried out to verify the optimal results. When three sensors are applied, the average accuracy of the impact recognition is 59.14%; when the number of sensors is four, the average accuracy of impact recognition is 76.95%.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s18124264","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,12,4]],"date-time":"2018-12-04T11:56:18Z","timestamp":1543924578000},"page":"4264","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Sensor Distribution Optimization for Structural Impact Monitoring Based on NSGA-II and Wavelet Decomposition"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Peng","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechatronics &amp; Vehicle Engineering, East China Jiaotong University, Nanchang 330013, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5064-577X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Liuwei","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechatronics &amp; Vehicle Engineering, East China Jiaotong University, Nanchang 330013, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jiachao","family":"Peng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechatronics &amp; Vehicle Engineering, East China Jiaotong University, Nanchang 330013, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,12,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1103","DOI":"10.1260\/1369-4332.17.8.1103","article-title":"Sensor Placement Optimization in Structural Health Monitoring Using Cluster-in-Cluster Firefly Algorithm","volume":"17","author":"Zhou","year":"2014","journal-title":"Adv.
