  • C. P. Townsend
چکیده

This article summarizes the development of wireless strain sensing systems for a variety of customer driven structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. By combining advanced, low power microprocessors, flexible software operating modes, and low power signal conditioners, these systems were optimized for very low power operation, while permitting high speed data logging and wireless communications capabilities. Solutions deploying wireless strain sensors are described, along with the appropriate citations.

Characterisation of a Wireless Passive Surface Acoustic Wave Strain Sensor

Wirelessly interrogated surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors can operate passively and in harsh conditions reliably. The interrogation process of the signal measurement chain provides the power to excite the sensor and hence establish the sensors response in a passive manner. Development of wireless passive SAW sensors allows investigation of their potential to quantify physical measurands such ...
