Abstract
A gas turbine engine and system for measuring torque for a gas turbine engine shaft is provided. The system may include a first sensor module, a second sensor module, a first coupler, a second coupler, and a static antenna. The first and second sensor modules may include strain sensors positioned on the gas turbine engine shaft. The first coupler may be positioned on the gas turbine engine shaft and electrically connected with the first sensor module. The second coupler may be positioned on the gas turbine engine shaft and electrically connected with the second sensor module. The static antenna may include a first band and a second band. The first signal band may be in operable communication with the first sensor module and positioned radially outward from the first coupler. The second signal band may be in operable communication with the second sensor module and positioned radially outward from the second coupler.
