Abstract
The embodiments disclose an LC-resonance sensor system for monitoring internal conditions of an enclosure. The system includes an LC temperature sensor, an LC pressure sensor, and an LC gas species sensor that each have an inductor and capacitor. The system uses a transmitting coil that transmits a wireless signal to each of the LC sensors, and receiving coils for each of the sensors that receive wireless signals from the LC sensors.
Claims13
An LC-resonance sensor system for monitoring internal conditions of an enclosure, comprising:
- an LC temperature sensor comprising an inductor and capacitor;
- an LC pressure sensor comprising an inductor and capacitor;
- an LC gas species sensor comprising an inductor and capacitor;
- a transmitting coil that transmits a wireless signal to each of the LC temperature sensor, LC pressure sensor, and LC gas species sensor;
- and
- a first receiving coil for receiving wireless signals from the LC temperature sensor, a second receiving coil for receiving wireless signals from the LC pressure sensor, and a third receiving coil for receiving wireless signals from the LC gas species sensor.
The LC-resonance sensor system of claim 10, further comprising a first signal processing algorithm, located within memory of the computer processor, which estimates the temperature inside an enclosure using the data recorded at the first receiving coil, a second signal processing algorithm that estimates the pressure inside an enclosure using the data recorded at the second receiving coil, and a third signal processing algorithm that estimates the gas species inside an enclosure using the data recorded at the third receiving coil.
