Magnetic wireless ground data link for aircraft state monitoring

摘要

A system and method of communicating a signal is disclosed. An aircraft 102 is moved so that an aircraft-based coil 106 is within a selected volume defined by a ground-based coil 116. A current is modulated in one of the aircraft-based coil and the ground-based coil to generate a magnetic field in the volume. A current generated in the other of the aircraft-based coil and the ground-based coil in response to the generated magnetic field is measured to communicate the signal.
