AIRCRAFT ELECTRIC TAXI SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC AND PROGNOSTIC EVALUATION SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

An aircraft electric taxi system diagnostics and prognostics evaluation method, including receiving, with a computer, an electronically recorded first performance parameter of a first electric taxi system of a first aircraft during a taxi operational event at an airport; and comparing the first performance parameter with a first performance factor statistical model generated in response to the first performance parameter and first comparative performance parameters; and calculating a first performance parameter difference based on the comparison.

1. An aircraft electric taxi system diagnostic and prognostic evaluation method, comprising:
receiving, with a computer, an electronically recorded first performance parameter of a first electric taxi system of a first aircraft during a taxi operational event at an airport; receiving, with the computer, electronically recorded first comparative performance parameters corresponding to the first performance parameter from electric taxi systems of multiple aircraft during a corresponding taxi operational event at the airport; generating, with a computer, a first performance factor statistical model in response to the first performance parameter and the first comparative performance parameters; comparing the first performance parameter with the first performance factor statistical model; and calculating a first performance parameter difference based on the comparison; and generating a first aircraft electric taxi system maintenance problem report when the first performance parameter difference exceeds a predetermined acceptable first performance parameter difference value.
