A measurement system for an aircraft includes an interrogator and an optical sensor assembly, remotely connected to the interrogator. The optical sensor assembly includes an optical sensor connected along a sensor path to the interrogator, a data storage device configured to store operational data, and a control circuit operationally connected to the data storage component, and connected along a power path to the interrogator. The sensor assembly also includes an opto-electric device for converting an optical signal to an electric current, connected along the power path between the interrogator and the control circuit, to power the data storage component through the control circuit, and a transmitter operationally connected to the control circuit and connected along a data path to the interrogator, to provide operational data along the data path to the interrogator. The data storage component is powered across the power path from the interrogator, and provides operational data to the interrogator across the data path, and the interrogator is configured to receive sensor data from the sensor across the sensor path, and manipulate the data in light of the operational data for analysis of the sensor data.
