Wireless Sensor Systems

Develops embedded sensor system on rotors for measuring quantities such as angular speed and acceleration, vibration, and torque. Designs wireless sensor networks for long-term operation in environmental monitoring applications.

The research group Wireless Sensor System works in two directions. The first directions is towards understanding the potential of having the complete embedded sensor system on rotors for measuring quantities such as angular speed and acceleration, vibration, and torque. Application areas that could benefit from this research are process industry, energy production, and automotive industry. The second direction is addressing technical challenges in designing wireless sensor networks for long-term operation in environmental monitoring applications. The focus is on energy harvesting techniques.
