An effective GSS is vital to the successful implementation of an
EMS and is a fundamental part of the total monitoring system
design, including asset management. Unlike the on-board part of the
EMS which principally uses real time data to indicate when engine
maintenance is required, a GSS can offer much greater processing
power to comprehensively analyze and manipulate EMS data for both
maintenance and logistics purposes.
This document reviews the main EMS functions and discusses the
operating requirements used to determine the basis design of a GSS,
including the interfaces with other maintenance or logistic
systems. A brief discussion is also included on some of the more
recent advances in GSS technology that have been specifically
developed to provide more effective diagnostic capabilities for gas
turbine engines.
