ABSTRACT = {This article reports the latest development of a wireless sensing system, named <i>Martlet</i>, on high-g shock acceleration measurement. The <i>Martlet</i> sensing node design is based on a Texas Instruments Piccolo microcontroller, with clock frequency programmable up to 90 MHz. The high clock frequency of the microcontroller enables <i>Martlet</i> to support high-frequency data acquisition and high-speed onboard computation. In addition, the extensible design of the <i>Martlet</i>
node conveniently allows incorporation of multiple sensor boards. In this study, a high-g accelerometer interface board is developed to allow <i>Martlet</i> to work with the selected microelectromechanical system (MEMS) high-g accelerometers. Besides low-pass and high-pass filters, amplification gains are also implemented on the high-g accelerometer interface board. Laboratory impact experiments are conducted to validate the performance of the <i>Martlet</i> wireless sensing
system with the high-g accelerometer board. The results of this study show that the performance of the wireless sensing system is comparable to the cabled system.},
