Diagnostics/prognostics using wireless links

摘要: A system and method for monitoring operating parameters of a machine (such as vehicle) producing diagnostic and/or prognostic results are disclosed. Active, semi-active, or semi-passive sensors wirelessly linked with an interrogator that selectively interrogates the sensors, such through transponders in wired communication sensors. data concentrator processor analyzes from certain generates diagnostic/prognostic conclusions, some cases using additional requested acquired by In embodiments, raw abstracted is communicated management center provides troubleshooting information (again, possibly additional, data), makes resource decisions preparing parts labor resources to make repair), tracks problems all subset machines being managed.
