The large amount of sensors in modern electrical networks poses a serious challenge in the data processing side. For many years, spectral analysis has been one of the most used approaches to extract physically meaningful information from a sea of data. Fourier Transform (FT) and Wavelet Transform (WT) are by far the most employed tools in this analysis.

This paper proposes and describes how to use Bayesian networks together with expert systems to predict this moment by using a telecontrol multiagent system for monitoring solar farms with distributed sensors, which was developed in a previous work. To this end, a Bayesian network model and its implementation are proposed.

This is why some audio monitoring system have been proposed in the literature, which can be classified into two different approaches: acquirement and compression of all audio patterns in order to send them as raw data to a main server; or specific recognition systems based on audio patterns. The first approach presents the drawback of a high amount of information to be stored in a main server.
