ABSTRACT:
A degradation monitoring system including: a machine; a sensor affixed to the machine, the sensors measuring a operational parameters of the machine; a set of filters receptive of information about the machine from the sensors and the filters responsively generate status signals; and comparators for comparing the status signals to stored signals, wherein the comparators indicate at least one of a presence of degradation of the machine, or a cause of degradation of the machine.
