  • Systems and methods related to transmitting and receiving sensor data
    Patent number: 10392963
    Abstract: A system for transmitting discrete data packets of sensor measured values of operating parameters. The system includes a transmitting device configured to transmit the measured values per a transmittal protocol. The system includes a receiving device that receives the measured values processes the received measured values in accordance with a receiving protocol. The transmittal protocol includes: determining a most recent measured value for the sensor; selecting previous measured values for the sensor; comparing the most recent measured value to the previous measured values to determine a difference therebetween; and conditionally transmitting the most recent measured value based on the difference. The receiving protocol includes: determining a most recent received measured value for each of the sensors; deriving an analytic time based the most recent received measured values; and deriving a time-aligned value for one of the operating parameters measured by the sensors at the analytic time.
