Abstract :
In this paper, we have presented results for a flexible, lightweight, high bandwidth sensor for passive monitoring of the health of aircraft wiring. The sensor acquires discharge signals from aircraft wiring for identification of potential insulation failure. On-going work is aimed at improving the transfer function of the sensor and demonstrating in an aircraft wiring system
