  • Patent number: 11171688
    Abstract: Systems and methods can include a transponder configured to communicate wirelessly with a receiver and sensor module (RSM), wireless communicate with a high-speed network, and radio-frequency (RF) powering of RSM. The high-speed network can include a wired network such as USB or Ethernet, or wireless network such as a WiFi or cellular network. Additionally or alternatively, an antenna module can be configured to transmit radio-frequency (RF) power to a receiver configured to monitor a condition of a machine.

  • Publication number: 20200326697
    Abstract: A system includes a wireless receiver and sensor module and a transponder. The wireless receiver and sensor module monitors a condition of a machine, and generate data that quantifies a machine condition. The transponder connects with the wireless receiver and sensor module to receive the data from the wireless receiver and sensor module. The transponder determines a sampling frequency for the wireless receiver and sensor module based on the machine condition.
