  • Publication number: 20090102635
    Abstract: The network of sensors comprises at least two nodes, each forming a measurement unit including a sensor, and a node forming a processor unit to which the measurement units are connected. Each measurement unit is designed to acquire measurements and to transmit a measurement that is a function of said measurements to the processor unit. During the method of managing the network, the measurement acquisition sequences performed by the measurement units are synchronized with one another by means of a synchronization signal sent by the processor unit to each of the measurement units.

  • Publication number: 20080262784
    Abstract: The device (12A, 12B) comprises first and second inclinometers (IT1, IR1; IT2, IR2) carried by first and second axles (T1, R1; T2, R2). The inclinometers are designed to measure respective angles of inclination of the first and second geometrical axes of the axles passing through the centers of the wheels carried by each of the axles, about an axis of inclination (ITL; IRL) parallel to a first direction. The device (12A, 12B) includes calculation means (18) suitable for calculating, over a given time interval, a history of an angle of inclination, referred to as an inclinometer history, in particular for each angle of inclination of the first and second axle axes. The device includes means (20) for calculating an indicator from at least two inclinometer histories, referred to as a deviation indicator, which indicator serves to compare the inclinometer histories, in particular the inclinometer histories for the angles of inclination of the first and second axles.
