Abstract
In this paper, a new embedded wireless sensor for structural health monitoring is presented. The requirements for remote sensing were explained and discussed. It was shown that by use of a foam cover layer, significant improvements in antenna gain (up to 25 dB) can be achieved. Remote detection of the sensors resonance was measured.
