Abstract
A temperature measurement system determines a body temperature. The system includes a first temperature sensor; a first insulation material thermally coupled to the first temperature sensor with a first thermal resistance; a second temperature sensor spaced from the first temperature sensor; a second insulation material thermally coupled to the second temperature sensor with a second thermal resistance that is different from the first thermal resistance; an isothermal plate thermally coupled to the first insulation material and the second insulation material; and an isothermal plate temperature sensor. Heat conduction occurs along a first heat conduction path from the body, through the first insulation material, and to the isothermal plate, and the first temperature sensor measures a first temperature. Heat conduction occurs along a second heat conduction path from the body, through the second insulation material, and to the isothermal plate, and the second temperature sensor measures a second temperature.
