...Agile-Link(tm) acquisition capable of simultaneous, high-speed data acquisition for use with wireless strain gauges, accelerometers, temperature, and millivolt level inputs. The system allows for simultaneous data collection from multiple sensing nodes, including MicroStrain's G-Link(tm), V-Link(tm), and SG-Link(tm) wireless sensors.

MicroStrain has developed "frequency agile" sensor transceiver nodes and base stations, which can use a wide range of RF (radio frequency) communications frequencies through software configuration. This technique, termed frequency division multiplexing (FDM), allows multiple wireless sensing nodes to communicate simultaneously without RF interference among them.

The Agile-Link wireless sensing systems support up to 26 distinct nodes and base stations to communicate real-time digital sensor data simultaneously in the license-free ISM...
