Over the last decade, commercial aircraft design has evolved with a strong emphasis on the implementation of onboard computers. Solutions which have been taken for monitoring the powerplants in the current Airbus family (particularly A320) as well as those to be certified in the near future (A330, A340) are described. The powerplant control and monitoring have changed by the introduction of digital engine control computers integrated with the aircraft system. The reliability requirements, highlighted by ETOPS, and the environmental conditions, such as vibration, reinforce the need for sophisticated monitoring and the definition of associated maintenance tasks.
