Patent attributes
A aircraft health management system for identifying an anomalous signal from one or more air data systems (ADS) includes one or more of a frequency processor, configured to provide a spectral signal that is representative of a frequency content of the first ADS signal, a noise processor, configured to provide a noise signal that is representative of a noise level of the first ADS signal, and a rate processor, configured to provide a rate signal that is representative of a rate of change of the first ADS signal. The aircraft health management system also includes a comparator configured to provide a differential signal between the first ADS signal and the second ADS signal, and a prognostic processor configured to determine if the ADS signal is anomalous by comparing values representative of a flight condition signal, the differential signal, and the spectral, noise, and/or rate signals.
