Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A sensor communication system includes an electromagnetic waveguide disposed adjacent to at least one component of a machine. The electromagnetic waveguide can be configured to convey a fluid within the machine. The sensor communication system can also include a sensor assembly, which includes a sensor operable to sense at least one condition and a transmitter at least partially positioned in the electromagnetic waveguide. The transmitter can be operatively coupled to the sensor and be operable to emit a signal corresponding to the at least one condition sensed by the sensor. The sensor communication system can also include a receiver at least partially positioned in the electromagnetic waveguide and operable to wirelessly receive the signal emitted by the transmitter.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A turbine engine comprising: a first fluid passageway having an inlet and an outlet; at least one combustion chamber positioned along said first fluid passageway between said inlet and said outlet, wherein a primary fluid stream passes through said first fluid passageway and said at least one combustion chamber for generating power; a second fluid passageway at least partially distinct from said first fluid passageway, wherein a secondary fluid stream pa…
