Abstract:
A rolling-element bearing assembly includes first and second rolled-on surface elements and a plurality of rolling elements arranged therebetween such that the first and second rolled-on surface elements are rotatable relative to each other. A first one of the rolling elements includes a first sensor module having a sensor interface operably connected to a communication interface of a first communication module, and a second one of the rolling elements includes a second sensor module having the sensor interface operably connected to the communication interface of a second communication module. The common sensor interfaces allow different sensors to be used with identical communication modules.

Claim (Index 11):
The rolling-element bearing assembly according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the first and second sensor modules are identical, wherein the sensor interface comprises a connecting point for electrical energy supply, a connecting point for analog data transmission, a connecting point for digital data transmission, and a connecting point for ground, wherein the first one of the plurality of rolling elements and the second one of the plurality of rolling elements are disposed in the plurality of rolling elements such that they are mutually angularly spaced by a given amount, wherein the rolling elements are disposed in a cage, and the cage is configured to allow communication from the first communication module to a receiver, wherein the plurality of rolling elements are rollers, and wherein the first sensor module and the first communication module are disposed in a cavity that extends into an interior of the roller from an axial end of the first roller, and wherein the first sensor module comprises at least one sensor selected from the group consisting of: a noise emission sensor, a load sensor, a rolling-element rotation sensor, a temperature sensor, an acceleration sensor, and a lubrication parameter sensor.
