For better realization of the function of Chemical oxygen demand (COD) online measuring instrument and improving its measurement accuracy , a good calibration and identification of signals collected is needed. During the process, the problem on parameter identification of undetermined function can be transformed into function optimization. Considering the characteristics of genetic algorithm It is introduced into the function identification of the measuring system and compare it with the radial basis function neural network. As for the premature of population evolutionary process, this article presents the method to select operators according to genetic fitness value of each individual and designs a set of system identifier based on Genetic Algorithm to identify the system. Finally, test the experimental data get from water bath in the lab dish. The relative error of output value does not exceed 8%.The experiment results show that genetic algorithm has a good effect in the system identifier on the calibration and identification of COD measuring system, better than radial basis function neural network.
