System and method for adjustment response analysis

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a method to determine, from a measured result and an assumed adjustment set, the probability that a permutation to the assumed adjustment set was implemented or other error, such as a sensor error, is occurring. The determination of probability of a permutation of the adjustment set may be based on the error between the predicted response and the measured actual response for the assumed adjustment set and permutations of the assumed adjustment set. A number of statistical comparisons may be performed between the assumed adjustment set and the permutation sets to determine which are closer to the measured actual response. A probability value may be assigned to each adjustment set as to the likelihood of their having been implemented.

1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a processor that is coupled to at least one of a sensor coupled to a helicopter or the helicopter and configured to determine effects to the helicopter of an actual adjustment that was made to a component of the helicopter, an actual adjustment result including measured data from the component after the actual adjustment has been performed; determining, by the processor, a permutation of an available adjustment, the available adjustment including at least one potential adjustment that may be made to the component; determining, by the processor, an expected result corresponding to expected effects to the helicopter for the permutation of the available adjustment from a measured start point corresponding to a point prior to the actual adjustment being performed; determining, by the processor, an error measured from the actual adjustment result as compared with the expected result for the permutation of the available adjustment; identifying, by the processor, the actual adjustment that was made to the component based on the error; and displaying, by a display, data identifying the actual adjustment that was made.
