Interrogation method for passive sensor monitoring system
Abstract:
A method of determining the frequency of a plurality of resonant devices (for example three SAW devices) includes determining optimal interrogation frequencies for each of the devices, the optimal interrogation frequencies having maximum power spectral densities, accumulating a plurality of responses for each sensor, performing discrete Fourier transforms on the sampling results to estimate the three resonant frequencies, and averaging the results of the Fourier transforms to provide an indication of resonant frequencies. The averaging step may include the calculation of a standard deviation and the rejection of any results which fall more than a pre-determined multiple of the standard deviation from the average frequency result. The frequency determined by the method may be employed to calculate the pressure and temperature of the sensor devices. The sensor devices may be located in a vehicle tire.
