Vibrational anomalies can provide valuable insights into the health status of an unmanned aerial vehicle, potentially indicating system degradation including propeller, motor, or sensor damage, as well as environmental anomalies such as strong wind gusts and turbulence. However, many causes for vibrational anomalies are not related to vehicle health, such as sharp shifts in velocity or direction of flight. Thus, depending strictly on vibration signals to detect anomalies can result in false positives for failures. Hence, it is important to include additional telemetries in detecting and diagnosing in-flight anomalies. This paper considers an approach to anomaly detection based on tensor decompositions that incorporates information from vibration signals, as well as additional flight data such as velocity, current draw, voltage drop, and attitude. Using experimental flight data collected by the University of Notre Dame, we construct third-order tensors then apply the CANDECOMP/PARAFAC decomposition to identify trends within each flight and classify flights as nominal or anomalous.
