  3. Background • The re-entry environment is extremely difficult to model. • NASA Ames desires a wireless sensor system that can be integrated into the Thermal Protection System (TPS) of entry vehicles. • Complications with adding extra wiring and the risk involved in adding sensors to the mission. • A wireless sensor system would remove wiring complexities, reduce mass, and reduce risk associated with cable cutting. • With a greater understanding of the environment encountered during atmospheric re-entry the TPS of future missions could be made safer and more efficient.
