Patent ID: 8812255

Claim:
A rotor track and balance system for rotorcraft comprising: a) a data processing unit; b) a tachometer sensor located remotely from the data processing unit and mounted proximate to rotating blades of the rotorcraft, the tachometer sensor being adapted to measure the speed and position of the rotating blades and wirelessly transmit speed and position data to the data processor: c) at least one accelerometer located remotely from the data processing unit on the rotorcraft, each accelerometer being adapted to measure vibration in the rotating blades and wirelessly transmit vibration data to the data processor; wherein the data processing unit synchronizes the wireless data transmitted from the tachometer sensor and the at least one wireless accelerometer and determines necessary adjustments to be made in order to reduce any vibration anomalies in the rotor blades, wherein the wireless data from the tachometer sensor and the at least one wireless accelerometer is synchronized prior to processing by the data processing unit.
