Abstract
One of the main purpose of the wireless sensor network is an identification of unknown physical, chemical and biological agents in monitoring area. It requires the measurement of the microcantilever sensor resonance frequencies with high precision. However, resolving the weak spectral variations in dynamic response of materials that are either dominated or excited by stochastic processes remains a challenge. In this paper we present the analysis and experimental results of the resonant excitation of a microcantilever sensor system (MSS) by the ambient random fluctuations. In our analysis, the dynamic process is decomposed into the bases of orthogonal functions with random coefficients using principal component analysis (PCA) and Karhunen-Loève theorem to obtain pertinent frequency shifts and spectral peaks. We show that using the truncated Karhunen-Loève Transform helps significantly increase the resolution of resonance frequency peaks compared to those obtained with conventional Fourier Transform processing.
