Wireless sensor system with Internet Control of Industrial Equipment (JOT) that enables process control, predictive maintenance of electrical distribution networks, liquid and gas pipelines, and monitoring of air pollutants, including nuclear, chemical and biological substances, using plug-in and/or embedded passive electromagnetic sensors

摘要

The invention relates generally to an Internet of Things (IoT) enabled wireless sensor system using attached and/or embedded passive electromagnetic sensors (PES) with distribution hardware. One embodiment of this invention includes a wireless sensor system, which permits process control and predictive maintenance on a utility's electrical transmission and distribution grid. Another embodiment includes a wireless sensor system, which permits process control and predictive maintenance of liquid or gas through a pipeline. Another embodiment includes a wireless sensor system, which permits measurement of breathable air pollutants. Furthermore, a method of manufacturing a protective passive electromagnetic sensor pod and passive electromagnetic sensor equipped distribution hardware components is provided.
