Addressing Safety and Maintenance Concerns by Combining Flight Recording and Usage Monitoring into a Single Device
Aircraft operators are constantly looking for ways to reduce the size and weight of onboard avionics units. For many operators, a flight recorder (FR) is essential to meet regulatory requirements.
The Problem of Obsolete Avionics
One issue that fleet owners face for their older aircraft is the obsolescence of avionics systems. This paper presents different strategies for addressing this growing problem, including replacing obsolete line replaceable units (LRUs) using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products.
Optimizing PCIe Communications through Device Lending and Multicast with Dolphin PCIe Fabric Library
In the third paper in our series, we cover additional features of the Dolphin PCIe Fabric Communications Library that help minimizes latency, maximize system bandwidth, and optimize configuration flexibility.
Minimizing Latency in Peer-to-Peer Communications with Dolphin PCIe Fabric Library
In this second white paper in our two-part series, we present several different software interfaces provided for applications development, comparing their advantages and tradeoffs. Finally, we present performance benchmarks using a variety of Curtiss-Wright.
Mitigating Flight Data Recorder Modification Issues using Modular FDAUs
This white paper discusses different strategies for gathering data for flight data recorders and the implications these have on deployment time, system flexibility, and suitability for deployment across a fleet of diverse aircraft.
