Health and usage monitoring system (HUMS) onboard a military helicopter showing sensor integration points
Aircraft monitoring system with predictive maintenance

Health and Usage Monitoring System HUMS

  • Provides aircraft health status, condition-based maintenance, and fleet management.
  • Functions as a standalone system displayed on EFIS EICAS or integrates into the Mission Computer architecture.
  • Combined with predictive diagnostics, it leverages machine learning to predict failures, detect anomalies, and estimate component lifespan.
  • Possible to modify the system for unmanned vehicles, offering real-time health monitoring and diagnostics.
  • Compliant with ARINC 429, RS232, RS422, MIL-STD-1553, and CANas standards.

Basic description

The Health and Usage Monitoring System (HUMS) provides continuous aircraft monitoring and fleet data management, with the flexibility to be adapted for unmanned systems. It collects data from multiple sensors and displays critical information on the EICAS page of the EFIS Multifunctional Display. Operating either as a stand-alone system or as part of the Mission Computer architecture, HUMS transmits data via LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth, or Iridium to an app interface for seamless connectivity.

Supporting condition-based maintenance, the system reduces downtime and operational costs by enabling predictive diagnostics. It processes gathered data using advanced algorithms to detect anomalies, estimate component lifespan, and predict potential failures. Leveraging machine learning, the predictive algorithms continuously learn from new data. This process constantly improves predictions, enhances maintenance planning, and increases overall logistics chain efficiency.
