Research status and perspectives of fault prediction technologies in Prognostics and Health management system

Prognostics and health management (PHM) is put forward initially for JSF F-35 to provide a guarantee for economic sustainability. Fault prediction algorithms based on artificial intelligence (AI) is a key technology to insure PHM technology implement. In this paper, fault prediction technologies are described in detail according as three classes based on the summarize of civil and foreign literatures. And the newest development trends are proposed in the end of the paper.
