IEEE P2848

New IEEE Standard - Active - Draft.
This standard defines data elements required to support prognostics and health management in the context of automatic test systems. The standard draws upon existing data elements defined in companion standards, such as IEEE Std 1636 and IEEE Std 1671 to form a basis for PHM in ATS. It then proposes additional relationships and entities within XML schemas to enhance previously defined, standard XML schemas in the ATS domain to support PHM processes. Target users of this standard include developers of PHM tools, developers of ATS, maintainers using PHM-enabled ATS systems, and maintenance operations responsible for logistics planning of ATS resources and UUTs.

The Prognostics and Health Management - Automatic Test Systems (PHM-ATS) standard provides formal specifications supporting prognostics and health management of automatic test systems as well as units tested by ATS. These specifications focus on the data, services, and processes for determining current and emerging state of health of electronic components and systems in the ATS and units under test (UUTs). Where applicable, this standard utilizes existing condition-based maintenance and PHM-related standards as well as existing UUT- and ATS-related information exchange standards.
