Abstract: The present invention proposes a system for continuous monitoring of dynamic equipment condition through the use of vibration, temperature and/or acoustic noise sensor modules associated with wireless technology (wireless) or LTE (Long Term Evolution). The system is characterized by having vibration, temperature and/or acoustic noise sensor modules. The sensor modules of the system also have the functionality to measure the sound signature of the machines.

Abstract: A method to acquire the structural health state of an aircraft mechanical component performs measurements at each frequency point of interest by using a network of transducers and working each one simultaneously as actuator and sensor. Each transducer is individually excited by a sinusoidal, constant frequency and arbitrary amplitude, voltage waveform for each arbitrary frequency point used to interrogate the structure. A dedicated hardware executes an analogical (analog) quantization to measure electrical current and average electrical power consumed by each transducer. With these two variables, the electromechanical signature of the structure is obtained at different areas of the monitored structure.
