Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Systems and methods for monitoring health of one or more subsystems of a vehicle system are disclosed. At least one sensor can be operatively coupled to a vehicle subsystem having an operational signature and a control system is coupled to the at least one sensor. Using information provided by the at least one sensor, the control system is structured to generate a reference signature of the subsystem during a learning phase and an operational signature of the subsystem subsequent to the learning phase. Systems and methods for identifying the particular subsystem exhibiting degraded performance are also disclosed.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A system comprising: a powertrain for a vehicle system including a plurality of associated subsystems; each of the subsystems including at least one sensor, the sensors being structured to generate operational values associated with the respective subsystem to which each sensor is coupled; a control system of the vehicle system coupled to each of the sensors, the control system including an engine control module including a signal processing system with…
