Abstract
Systems and Methods for Differential Pressure Determination and Control are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a system, which able to obtain pressure measurements. The system can include, a sensor and a processor coupled to the sensor. A further embodiment includes memory coupled to the processor where the memory has stored thereon instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: determine, a local set of pressure measurements from the sensor and/or compare the local set of pressure measurements with an external set of pressure measurements.

A system to determine a pressure difference between a first physical location and a second physical location, the system, comprising:
- a transmitter unit to determine a first set of pressure values associated with the first physical location and to generate a synchronization vector;
- a receiver unit coupled to the transmitter unit;
- the receiver unit having stored thereon a second set of pressure values associated with the second physical location;
- wherein, the first set of pressure values are to be transmitted to the receiver unit with the synchronization vector.
A system to obtain pressure measurements, the system, comprising:
- a sensor;
- a processor coupled to the sensor;
- memory coupled to the processor, the memory having stored thereon instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- determine, continuously, a local set of pressure measurements from the sensor;
- compare the local set of pressure measurements with an external set of pressure measurements.
A method to use pressure measurements associated with multiple transmitter devices in a single output control, the method, comprising:
- determining a first pressure difference between a first pressure value and a receiver pressure value, the first pressure value to be measured by a first transmitter device and the receiver pressure value to be measured by a receiver device;
- determining a second pressure difference between a second pressure value and a second receiver pressure value, the second pressure value to be measured by a second transmitter device and the second receiver pressure value to be measured by the receiver device;
- determining a first differential value by applying a first weight to the first pressure difference;
- determining a second differential value by applying a second weight to the second pressure difference;
- generating an output value from the first differential value and the second differential value;
- wherein, the output value is used to drive the single output control.
