Consideration in WSN Applying for the Health Monitoring of Transport Aircraft
Bin Yao, Rongshan Tang, Shuangyun Ma · 2023
The possibility of employing Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) on future transport aircraft can bring obvious benefits such as weight reduction and flexible location. The application principles of WSN are summarized, and various scenarios with WSN are proposed and analyzed. To achieve the objective of replacing traditional wired sensors with wireless sensors without exerting evident impacts on crucial communication and navigation equipment, a typical WSN architecture is presented. Power supply of WSN is of great importance, and possible power supply methods are discussed. Also, trade-offs are made for the selection of multiple data transmission frequencies to balance the transmission efficiency and possible interference.
