The goal of this study was to investigate wireless sensor products and technologies for use in the prediction of component failure for legacy aircraft. Further, the study was to rank the identified products and technologies and select those that held the most promise for the intended maintenance task. Finally, based on the selected subset, demonstrations were to be arranged either at the vendor site, at Arthur D. Little (ADL), or at the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). The commercial systems that were identified to be most applicable to aircraft maintenance were the WINS system from Sensoria, the CrossNet from Crossbow Technologies, the ATI rotating sensor system, and the CSI line of machine diagnostics products. Demonstrations were arranged for all but the CSI systems. The technology identified to be most applicable to aircraft maintenance included three patents from Raytheon and one from The Aerospace Corporation. Raytheon has subsequently sold the rights to one of the patents to CBL Systems. The remaining two are still held by Raytheon. The Aerospace Corporation patent is available royalty free to the Air Force, since it was developed under government funding.
