SMART SENSOR SOLUTIONS FOR MECHANICAL MEASUREMENTS AND DIAGNOSTICS

Journal Title: Metrology and Measurement Systems - Year 2005, Vol 12, Issue 1

Abstract

Application of many sensors located on a mechanical structure causes serious technical problems. One of the main problems is wiring of sensors which is time-consuming and may change the system output due to high structure loading and damping. To overcome this problem new smart sensor designs have been proposed. One of the most promising technologies in this field is wireless data transfer. In the paper requirements for the developed smart wireless sensor are specified. The important part of a smart sensor is the transducer which transforms certain information from the physical world to user defined values - mostly the voltage. In the paper the application of industrial accelerometers was specified and descriptions of basic types of accelerometers are given. For smart sensor design two modern embedded accelerometers were specified and laboratory-tested.[b][/b]
