Claim:
1. An aircraft resonant loop link assembly for electromagnetically coupling a magnetic field between a wheel axle electromagnetic adapter transformer primary coil and a tire pressure sensor receiver coil spaced apart from the wheel axle electromagnetic adapter transformer primary coil for powering a tire pressure sensor, the aircraft resonant loop link assembly comprising: a first electrically conductive connecting arm having first and second ends; a second electrically conductive connecting arm having first and second ends, said second electrically conductive connecting arm being spaced apart from said first electrically conductive connecting arm; a single electrically conductive primary loop electrically connected to said first ends of said first and second electrically conductive connecting arms, said single electrically conductive primary loop being configured to be mounted adjacent to a secondary tire pressure sensor coil; a circuit including at least one resonant tuning capacitor and a secondary coil including at least one electrically conductive loop electrically connected to said second ends of said first and second electrically conductive connecting arms, said second ends of said first and second electrically conductive connecting arms being connected in series to said circuit, said secondary coil being configured to be mounted adjacent to a wheel axle electromagnetic adapter transformer primary coil; said first and second electrically conductive connecting arms being electrically connected between said single electrically conductive primary loop and said secondary coil, said first and second electrically conductive connecting arms being configured to carry current generated in the secondary coil from a wheel axle electromagnetic adapter transformer primary coil to the secondary coil, said first and second electrically conductive connecting arms being configured to carry current induced in the primary loop a predetermined distance from the wheel axle electromagnetic adapter transformer primary coil to the secondary coil, to generate flux in the tire pressure sensor receiver coil for powering a tire pressure sensor.
