  • Methods, apparatus, and systems for monitoring transmission systems
    Patent number: 9398352
    Abstract: A sensing platform for monitoring a transmission system, and method therefor, may include a sensor that senses one or more conditions relating to a condition of the transmission system and/or the condition of an environment around the transmission system. A control system operatively associated with the sensor produces output data based on an output signal produced by the sensor. A transmitter operatively associated with the control system transmits the output data from the control system.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 26, 2015
    Date of Patent: July 19, 2016
    Assignee: Battelle Energy Alliance, LLC
    Inventors: Robert E. Polk, John M. Svoboda, Phillip B. West, Gail L. Heath, Clark L. Scott
