System and method for conflict resolution to support simultaneous monitoring of multiple subsystems
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- at least one interface configured to receive input signals associated with multiple components of a system from one or more sensors that are configured to monitor the system; and
at least one processing unit configured to identify a potential fault in one or more of the components using the input signals and to provide an indicator identifying the potential fault;
wherein the at least one processing unit is configured to identify the potential fault by;
identifying conflicting frequencies that are associated with different faults in the components of the system; and
determining a confidence level associated with the potential fault based on the conflicting frequencies.

Abstract
A system includes a subsystem interaction module device, which includes at least one interface configured to receive input signals associated with multiple components of a system. The subsystem interaction module device also includes at least one processing unit configured to identify a potential fault in one or more of the components using the input signals and to provide an indicator identifying the potential fault. The at least one processing unit is configured to identify the potential fault by: identifying conflicting frequencies that are associated with different faults in the components of the system; and determining a confidence level associated with the potential fault based on the conflicting frequencies.

9. A method comprising:
-
receiving, from one or more sensors, input signals associated with multiple components of a system; identifying, by at least one processing unit, one or more frequencies for each of multiple faults that could occur in the components; identifying, by the at least one processing unit, conflicting frequencies that are associated with different faults in the components; identifying, by the at least one processing unit, a potential fault in one or more of the components using the input signals; determining, by the at least one processing unit, a confidence level associated with the potential fault based on the conflicting frequencies; and outputting, by the at least one processing unit, an indicator identifying the potential fault. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
