Abstract: A sensor assembly that includes a surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor. The SAW sensor is adapted to measure a first environmental condition in response to receiving an RF signal. The SAW sensor includes a substrate having a layer of piezoelectric material. The SAW sensor further includes a interdigitated transducer (IDT) formed on the piezoelectric material. The IDT includes two comb-shaped electrodes having interlocking conducting digits in a first arrangement. The interlocking conducting digits in the first arrangement generates a first signal modulation of an RF signal received by the first IDT. The first signal modulation identifies the first SAW sensor.
