ABSTRACT:
A detector and locator system monitors sequential signals to detect and locate events. In a fault detector and locator embodiment, the system monitors the sequential states of multiples signals to detect a fault and to locate the source of a fault. A Hamming encoder compresses the sequential signal to reduce the number of signature generators. Signature generators further compress the encoded signals to reduce an enormous number of states contained in the sequence of monitored signals to a relatively small set of signatures. A parity detector monitors the signature signals to generate a fault detection signal. A location circuit monitors the signature signals to generate a fault location signal.
