Abstract

See full text

The monitoring method includes the steps of: acquiring a signal from an acceleration sensor; calculating a transform in the frequency domain of the signal to obtain a sequence of samples; acquiring a sample in the sequence of samples; calculating an actual amplitude value of the acquired sample; calculating a relative deviation between the actual amplitude value of the acquired sample and a reference amplitude value; and comparing the relative deviation with at least one predetermined threshold to immediately detect any irregularity in, and so prevent in-flight failure of, the helicopter transmission assembly.
