A sensor configured to determine a condition of an electrical device may include an antenna, a receiver and a controller designed to implement a method. The method of determining a condition of an electrical device may include selecting a plurality of singular dimensional components of a multi-dimensional signal of a radio frequency (RF) emission from an electrical device, extracting singular dimensional components individually or as a combination, inputting each individual extracted singular dimensional component or the combination of the components into a neural network (NN), and analyzing, with NN, outputs from the inputted singular dimensional component (s). Singular-spectrum analysis (SSA) and/or wavelet transform may be used to select components.

Electrical device condition determining sensor and method

An apparatus, configured and operable to determine a state and/or an operation of a powered electrical device, comprises one or more antennas, a receiver operable to receive emission(s) of electromagnetic energy from the electrical device; an illumination device operable to illuminate the electrical device with a pulse of electromagnetic energy; a controller including: one or more processors, a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of selecting a spectral frequency target component of the emission(s), iteratively controlling the illumination device, measuring, at each iteration, a change in characteristic(s) of the spectral frequency target component of the emission(s), assigning a score value to each measurement, and iteratively effecting optimized parameter(s) of the pulse based on the score value until a final score value indicates a desired state, operation of the electrical device.
