  • Publication number: 20250334487
    Abstract: A system for monitoring a tension in a track of a work machine includes one or more sensors coupled to the work machine. A sensor, of the one or more sensors, is configured to obtain a distance information related to a distance between the sensor and the track of the work machine. The sensor includes a pulse Radio Detection and Ranging (RADAR) sensor. The system includes a controller including at least one memory and at least one processor. The memory is configured to store an expected distance between the sensor and the track of the work machine. The processor is configured to determine an actual distance between the sensor and the track of the work machine, based on the distance information obtained from the sensor and determine, based on the actual distance being greater than the expected distance, that the tension in the track is below a tension threshold.

  • Publication number: 20050232280
    Abstract: A routing system operably links a mobile platform to the Internet. The system includes a ground based communications link manager linkable to the mobile platform. At least one ground based prefix server can communicate with the communications link manager. An initial Internet address is assigned to the mobile platform. A prefix server program communicates the initial destination address of the mobile platform to the communications link manager and to the Internet. During a travel segment of the mobile platform a new destination address can be communicated to the Internet using the prefix server to maintain communication between the mobile platform and the Internet.
