Abstract: A bio-processing system (100) for wirelessly powering one or more sensors (116-128, 400) is presented. The system (100) includes bio-processing units (106-110), process supporting devices (112-114), energy sources (146-148), and sensors (116-128, 400) including an energy harvesting unit (402) and an energy storage unit (404). The system (100) includes a power management subsystem (104, 200) wirelessly coupled to the sensors (116-128, 400) and including a processor (202) configured to wirelessly monitor energy consumption of the sensors (116-128, 400) and a level of energy stored in corresponding energy storage units (404), select at least one sensor (116-128, 400) based on the energy consumption of the sensors (116-128, 400) and corresponding levels of energy stored in the energy storage units (404), and identify at least one active energy source (146-148) as a power source, where the identified power source is configured to wirelessly transfer power to the selected sensor (116-128, 400).

Abstract: A method for determining a concentration of at least one individual gas present in a gas-mixture includes irradiating a first component by incident modulated-light-beams characterized by a determined absorption wavelength range, modulation frequencies and a modulation amplitudes to generate first transmitted-light-beams, irradiating a second component, comprising a determined concentration of the at least one individual gas, by the first incident modulated-light-beams to generate second transmitted-light-beams, generating noise signals representative of a characteristic of the first transmitted-light-beams, generating noise-free signals representative of a characteristic of the second transmitted-light-beams, selecting an optimal modulation frequency and an optimal modulation amplitude from the modulation frequencies and the modulation amplitudes based on the noise signals and the noise-free signals, and determining a concentration of the at least one individual gas in the gas-mixture based on the optimal mod
