This paper describes analysis of Space Shuttle Main Engine (SSME) sensor data using Beacon-based Exception Analysis for Multimissions (BEAM), a new technology developed for sensor analysis and diagnostics in autonomous space systems by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). The BEAM anomaly detection system has been applied to SSME in a joint effort between JPL and the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC). MSFC is evaluating BEAM as an automated tool for rapid analysis of SSME ground-test data. BEAM is an end-to-end method of data analysis intended for real-time (on-board) or non-real-time anomaly detection and characterization. For the SSME application, a custom version of BEAM was built to analyze data gathered during ground tests. Since BEAM consists of modular components, a custom version can be tailored to address specific applications and needs by mixing-and-matching components. The initial build of BEAM for the SSME focuses on signal processing and contains three components: Coherence-based Fault Detector (CFD), Dynamical Invariant Anomaly Detector (DIAD), and Symbolic Data Model (SDM). This paper describes the software environment, its training steps, and the analysis results of the SSME data using the DIAD module.
