  • Vibration measurement and recording system and method
    Patent number: 6983199
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for allowing simplified access to the raw vibration data. The signal conditioner, even if mounted on the engine or the engine pylon, digitizes the input signals and can analyze and store a finite amount of raw data. The raw signals are digitized at a high rate of speed, and the digitized values are stored. The stored values can be retrieved after flight. This aircraft vibration processor and recording system allows easy access to the raw vibration waveform, even in configurations where the processor is located on the engine or the engine pylon.
    Type: Grant
