摘要: There is described a position sensor comprising a sensor electromagnetic field generator, a screen arranged to confine the sensor electromagnetic field, and an output. The output is arranged to provide a signal which varies in dependence upon an amount of flux compression of the electromagnetic field resulting from the presence of the screen. The amount of flux compression is related to a position of the screen in relation to the sensor electromagnetic field generator. There is also described a method of detecting a relative position of an electromagnetic field generator and a screen.

摘要: A rotor blade sensor for detecting a rotor blade (430) comprising an electrical oscillator arranged to generate an oscillating signal. An antenna (300) includes a coil (100) having one or two winding layers coupled to the electrical oscillator. The antenna (300) may instead or as well include a coil (100) comprising a plurality of winding layers, each layer being separated by al spacer for substantially reducing inter-layer capacitance, being coupled to the electrical oscillator. The antenna (300) is driven in use by the oscillating signal of the oscillator at substantially a resonant frequency of the antenna (300). The antenna generates an antenna electromagnetic field that interacts with a rotor blade (430) such that the electrical characteristics of the antenna (300) vary as the interaction between the antenna (300) and the rotor blade changes and a detector circuit is arranged to monitor these electrical characteristics.

摘要: An electrical, magnetic or electromagnetic delay line self oscillator is described with a delay line arrangement, an oscillator control circuitry, and a frequency selection impedance connecting the delay line arrangement and the oscillator control circuitry and presenting an impedance to the delay line arrangement. The oscillator control circuitry includes an amplifier, a non linear amplitude control element (N-LACE) such as an active device with a negative differential conductance that provides an output amplitude has a negative second derivative with respect to an input signal, and a driver. The modal characteristics of electromagnetic delay lines can thus be exploited across a wide range of instrumentation applications, and a means is provided to enhance the achievable functionality and/or performance of the instrumentation without the need for expensive additional electrical hardware or electronics.

摘要: A mechanical oscillator arrangement includes a mechanical structure (30) having at least one transmission path through it, and at least one mode. A controller (40) is provided with an amplifier (70) and a feedback network (80, 90) which together provide a positive feedback oscillator for exciting a mode of the mechanical structure (30). The feedback network (80, 90) comprises a non linear amplitude control element (N-LACE) (90), a frequency dependent gain element with an electronic transfer function, and a phase compensator (80). The mechanical oscillator arrangement also includes an actuator (606) which excites the mechanical structure (30) based upon an output from the controller (40), and a sensor (60a) which senses vibrations in the mechanical structure (30) and then outputs a signal to the controller (40) based upon the sensed vibrations. Such a stabilized positive feedback arrangement is self exciting at the effective resonance frequency of the mechanical structure and avoids the need for an external fixed or variable frequency driver.

摘要: A self-oscillating remote sensor device includes a delay-line sensor system having at least one delay-line and at least one sensor element. The device also includes an oscillator control circuitry, and a frequency selection impedance connecting the delay-line sensor system and the oscillator control circuitry and presenting an impedance to the delay-line sensor system. The oscillator control circuitry includes an amplifier, a non linear amplitude control element (N-LACE) such as an active device with a negative differential conductance that provides an output whose amplitude has a negative second derivative with respect to an input signal, and a driver. Such a device permits successful interaction between electrical sensors and controlling (driving) electronics over long distances without the problems normally encountered when a delay-line is presented between an electrical sensor and its driver electronics.

摘要: An acoustic oscillator arrangement includes an acoustic system having at least one acoustic transmission path through it, and at least one mode. The acoustic transmission path is of variable length. A controller is provided with an amplifier and a feedback network which together provide a positive feedback oscillator for exciting a mode of the acoustic system. The feedback network comprises a non linear amplitude control element (N-LACE), a frequency dependent gain element with an electronic transfer function, and a phase compensator. The acoustic oscillator arrangement also includes an acoustic transmitter which launches an acoustic signal into the acoustic system based upon an output from the controller, and an acoustic receiver which receives an acoustic signal from the acoustic system which is fed back to the controller. Such a stabilized positive feedback arrangement is self exciting at the effective resonance frequency of the acoustic system and avoids the need for an external fixed or variable frequency driver.
