Abstract: A system for monitoring health of a rotor is presented. The system includes a processing subsystem that generates a measurement matrix based upon a plurality of resonant-frequency first delta times of arrival vectors corresponding to a blade and a first sensing device, and a plurality of resonant-frequency second delta times of arrival vectors corresponding to the blade and a second sensing device, generates a resonant matrix based upon the measurement matrix such that entries in the resonant matrix are substantially linearly uncorrelated and linearly independent, and generates a resonance signal using a first subset of the entries of the resonant matrix, wherein the resonance signal substantially comprises common observations and components of the plurality of resonant-frequency first delta times of arrival vectors and the plurality of resonant-frequency second delta times of arrival vectors.

Abstract: A system for monitoring health of a rotor is presented. The system includes a processing subsystem that generates a plurality of frequency peak values corresponding to two or more respective windows of signals by iteratively shifting the two or more respective windows of signals along delta times of arrival signals corresponding to a blade in the rotor, determines one or more resonant-frequency rotor speeds ranges of the blade by identifying rotor speeds corresponding to a subset of the plurality of frequency peak values, and monitors the blade to determine a presence of one or more defects in the blade during the resonant-frequency rotor speeds regions.
