A Wireless Sensor Network Based Vibration Monitoring System: Architecture, Principle and Validation

Abstract:

Wireless sensor network overcomes the limitations of conventional tethered measurement techniques. It can be used in many situations where conventional tethered sensors cannot be employed due to the safety requirements, space limitation, and wiring cost. Thus it can further expand testing area, and improve measurement performance. A vibration monitoring system is developed based on wireless sensor network. Its architecture and principle are introduced, and its performance is validated by signal generator simulation and a gearbox vibration test.
