System and Method for Determining the Status of a Component of an Installation
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18702213 titled 'System and Method for Determining the Status of a Component of an Installation
Original Abstract Submitted
Various embodiments of the teachings herein include a system for monitoring states ZSTAT_i of a number NSIG≥1 of state signal transmitters ZSIG_ with i=1, . . . , NSIG of one or more components in surroundings of an installation, a respective state signal transmitter ZSIG_i configured to transmit a signal S_i that unambiguously represents its current state ZSTAT_i. An example system includes: a recording subsystem comprises a number NERF≥1 of recording units KAM_k with k=1, . . . , NKAM, a respective recording unit KAM_k configured to record the transmitted signals S_i; and an analysis subsystem configured to automatically use the signals S_i thus captured to derive current states ZSTAT_i of the respective state signal transmitters ZSIG_i.
