Abstract
A telemetry system for use in a combustion turbine engine () having a compressor (), a combustor and a turbine () that includes a sensor () in connection with a turbine blade () or vane (). A telemetry transmitter circuit () may be affixed to the turbine blade () with a first connecting material () deposited on the turbine blade () for routing electronic data signals from the sensor () to the telemetry transmitter circuit (), the electronic data signals indicative of a condition of the turbine blade (). An induction power system for powering the telemetry transmitter circuit () may include a rotating data antenna () affixed to the turbine blade () with a second connecting material () deposited on the turbine blade () for routing electronic data signals from the telemetry transmitter circuit () to the rotating data antenna (). A stationary data antenna () may be affixed to a static seal segmentadjacent the turbine blade () for receiving electronic data signals from the rotating data antenna ().
