A method incudes wirelessly transmitting one or more messages to a sensor assembly (108a, 108b) in order to synchronize a clock of the sensor assembly. The method also includes wirelessly receiving (502) multiple sensor measurements of a characteristic of a web (102) of material from the sensor assembly. The method further includes receiving (504) timestamps and position data associated with the sensor measurements. In addition, the method includes correlating (506) the sensor measurements, timestamps, and position data. The sensor measurements from the sensor assembly could be timestamped, and the position data could include timestamped position data. The timestamped position data could be received from a source other than the sensor assembly. The method can further include generating (508) a cross direction profile of the web of material using the sensor measurements, timestamps, and positions. |
