Understanding Smart Sensors
Now in its third edition, Understanding Smart Sensors is the most complete, up-to-date, and authoritative summary of the latest applications and developments impacting smart sensors in a single volume. This thoroughly expanded and revised edition of an Artech bestseller contains a wealth of new material, including critical coverage of sensor fusion and energy harvesting, the latest details on wireless technology, and greater emphasis on applications through the book.
Utilizing the latest in smart sensor, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and microelectronic research and development, you get the technical and practical information you need keep your designs and products on the cutting edge. Plus, you see how fuzzy logic and neural networks continue to impact smart sensor development.
By combining information on micromachining and microelectronics, this is the first book that links these two important aspects of smart sensor technology so you don t have to keep multiple references on hand.
Providing an extensive variety of information for both technical and non-technical professionals, this easy-to-understand, time-saving book covers current and emergent technologies, as well as their practical implementation. This comprehensive resource also includes an extensive list of smart sensor acronyms and a glossary of key terms.
Smart Sensor Basics. Micromachining. The Nature of Semiconductor Sensor Output. Getting Sensed Information into the MCU. Using MCUs/DSCs/DSPs/FPGAs to Increase Sensor IQ. Communications for Smart Sensors.Control Techniques. Wireless Transceivers, Transponders, and Telemetry. Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) Packaging, Testing, and Reliability Implications for Smarter Sensors. Mechatronics and Sensing Systems. Standards for Smart Sensing. Implications of Smart Sensor Standards. Sensor Fusion. Energy Harvesting for Sensor. The Next Phase of Sensing Systems.

Only read a few chapters relevant to an ongoing project. The chapter on telemetry could be enhanced, especially with link budget information and frequency selection based on availability and eventually approximate licensing costs.
