Evaluating Communication Performance in Rotating Electrical Machines Using RSSI Measurements and Artificial...

This paper introduces a novel methodology for evaluating communication performance in rotating electric machines using Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) measurements coupled with artificial intelligence. The proposed approach focuses on assessing the quality of wireless signals in the complex, dynamic environment inside these machines, where factors like reflections, metallic surfaces, and rotational movements can significantly impact communication. RSSI is used as a key parameter to monitor real-time signal behavior, enabling a detailed analysis of communication reliability. The methodology comprises several stages, including data collection, preprocessing, feature extraction, and model training. Various machine learning models are implemented and evaluated. Among these, the SVM model with a Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel outperforms others, achieving an accuracy of 97%, with high precision and recall scores, confirming its robustness in classifying RSSI data and handling complex signal behavior. The confusion matrix further supports the SVM model's accuracy, showing minimal misclassification.
