Abstract

See full text

The novel differential variable reluctance transducer and telemetry system is comprised of a ultra miniaturized device encased in stainless steel. The system contains a free sliding, magnetically permeable, stainless core and two coils surrounding the core. The position of the core is detected by measuring the coils' differential reluctance. The coils resonate at a frequency which depends on the position of the core and the difference in resonant frequency is used to modulate a high frequency carrier. This radio frequency signal is transmitted for remote reception by an FM receiver, amplified and put through a phase-locked-loop circuit into a microprocessor for counting and displaying.
