Condition based monitoring system based on radar sensor

摘要

A sensing system (200) comprising a radar-based vibration sensor and processing unit used to collect and process vibration information from a machine of interest. The radar-based vibration sensor (230) obtains vibration data from mechanical operation of a component or series of components in the machine (211,212), and may be steered toward specific regions of interest of the machine. The processing unit (250) analyzes the data, and may fuse data from a plurality of vibration sensors, such as radar-based vibration sensors and multiple machine-mounted sensors (221-224) such as accelerometers. From this analysis, indications related to a status of the mechanical operation of the components in the machine of interest may be provided to relevant users.
