Abstract
Methods, devices, and systems for airfield luminaire vibration monitoring are described herein. In some examples, one or more embodiments include a computing device comprising a memory and a processor to execute instructions stored in the memory to receive a vibration signal from a sensor on an airfield luminaire, compare the vibration signal from the sensor to a vibration profile for the airfield luminaire, and determine a status of a bolt of the airfield luminaire based on the comparison.
Claims20
A computing device for airfield luminaire vibration monitoring, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to:
- receive a vibration signal from a sensor on an airfield luminaire;
- compare the vibration signal from the sensor to a vibration profile for the airfield luminaire;
- and
- determine a status of a bolt of the airfield luminaire based on the comparison.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having computer readable instructions stored thereon that are executable by a processor to:
- receive a vibration signal from a sensor on an airfield luminaire;
- analyze the vibration signal to determine a frequency corresponding to the vibration signal;
- compare the determined frequency corresponding to the vibration signal to a calibration frequency for the airfield luminaire;
- and
- determine a status of a bolt of the airfield luminaire based on the comparison.
A system for airfield luminaire vibration monitoring, comprising:
- an airfield luminaire, wherein the airfield luminaire includes:
- a luminaire housing;
- a sensor;
- a base to secure the luminaire housing to a surface of an airfield, wherein the luminaire housing is received by the base;
- and
- a bolt to secure the luminaire housing to the base;
- a computing device configured to:
- analyze a vibration signal received from the sensor to determine a frequency corresponding to the vibration signal;
- determine, in response to a difference between the determined frequency and a calibration frequency of the airfield luminaire being less than a threshold amount, the bolt to be secure;
- and
- determine, in response to the difference between the determined frequency and the calibration frequency being greater than a threshold amount, the bolt to be unsecure.
