Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An engine-mounted component life cycle data tracking system is provided. The system includes a plurality of RFID tags positioned proximate to a different engine component, a communication module configured to read data from and write data to each RFID tag and a controller. The controller is configured to retrieve static data and repair data from each RFID tag wherein the static data includes identification information regarding the engine components and the repair data includes repair history information regarding the engine components. The aircraft-mounted controller is further configured to store the static data and the repair data in a database and provide dynamic data to the database wherein the dynamic data includes engine usage information, component usage information, and component fault information regarding the engine component. The controller is further configured to transmit the dynamic data regarding the engine component to each RFID tag for storage in the RFID tag.
