Universal Rf Wireless Sensor Interface

A RF wireless sensor interface ( 20 ) interfaces one or more of a variety of sensors ( 12, 13 ) to a RF wireless network ( 11 ). A power converter ( 30 ) of the interface ( 20 ) converts a primary power (PPRM) into a DC power (PDC) that is supplied to the sensor(s) ( 12, 13 ). A microcontroller ( 60...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A RF wireless sensor interface ( 20 ) interfaces one or more of a variety of sensors ( 12, 13 ) to a RF wireless network ( 11 ). A power converter ( 30 ) of the interface ( 20 ) converts a primary power (PPRM) into a DC power (PDC) that is supplied to the sensor(s) ( 12, 13 ). A microcontroller ( 60 ) of the interface ( 20 ) receives sensor detection information (SDI) from the sensor(s) ( 12, 13 ) in response to the sensor(s) ( 12, 13 ) receiving the DC power (PDC) from the power converter ( 30 ). A RF transmitter/transceiver ( 50 ) of the interface ( 20 ) executes a sensor detection information RF transmission (SDIRF) and/or a sensor control signal RF transmission (SCSRF) to the RF wireless network ( 11 ) in response to the microcontroller ( 60 ) receiving the sensor detection information (SDI). The power converter ( 30 ), the microcontroller ( 60 ) and the RF transmitter/transceiver ( 50 ) are located within a modular housing ( 80 ).
