Abstract

A method for the continuous monitoring of the change in temperature of remote physical objects based on waveguide ring microwave resonators, and also its diagramatic representation, is proposed. The results of calculations, which enable the range of accuracy of temperature measurements to be optimized using a digital optical sensor, are presented. The short response time and the small dimensions and mass of the proposed sensor enable continuous remote monitoring of the temperature to be achieved in locations that are difficult to access.
