  • Passive wireless sensor for the measurement of AC electric field in the vicinity of high voltage apparatus
    Patent number: 10281511
    Abstract: A new passive wireless electric field sensor is disclosed. This sensor does not require direct attachment to a source of power which makes it passive. It is composed of a resonator loaded with varactors. The sensor is interrogated by a remotely located device transmitting and receiving the pulses of sine wave in the resonance frequency range of the sensor. Therefore, the sensor can be mounted in the vicinity of high voltage apparatus and interrogated from a safe distance.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: May 7, 2019
    Assignee: The University of Manitoba
    Inventors: Mana Yazdani, Behzad Kordi, Douglas J. Thomson
