Battery-Free and Real-Time Wireless Sensor System on Marine Propulsion Shaft Using a Wireless Power Transfer Module

Young Chul Lee et al.

Summary: This paper presents a wireless sensor system (WSS) that integrates an inductive wireless power transfer (I-WPT) module for battery-free real-time monitoring of the status of rotating shaft in ships. An optimized I-WPT module with multiple Tx and Rx coils was implemented, achieving a power capability of 1.75 W with an efficiency of 75%. The designed WSS, which integrates four sensors, was demonstrated on a small-scale test bench system, showing the real-time monitoring of the propulsion shaft without a battery.

Dynamic Zero Current Method to Reduce Measurement Error in Low Value Resistive Sensor Array for Wearable Electronics

Huanqian Zhang et al.

Summary: One advantage of a resistive sensor array (RSA) with shared rows and shared columns is the reduced number of wires, which can lessen the complexity and burden on wearable electronic systems. However, the drawback is the crosstalk current effect between adjacent elements, which leads to high measurement error. This study introduces a new circuit design called the dynamic zero current method (DZCM) to decrease the measurement error further.
