Patent number: 11360446Abstract: An aircraft control system including transducers connected by interface units to an avionics network, such as an AFDX network. Each transducer is directly connected to an interface unit local to the transducer. Each interface unit is a configurable unit and has a signal processing module converting data to a format suitable for transmission over the network. Each interface unit may be configurable, via software commands, to operate in an application session mode, a data-loading mode, or a maintenance mode. Each interface unit may be directly associated with one of the software applications of the aircraft control system. The network may include a lower bandwidth part where data communication is conducted over sampling ports only. Interface units may be configured or installed using a plug and play method.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2019Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignees: Airbus Operations Limited, Airbus Operations SASInventors: Anand Pavaskar, Romain Desautard, Kayvon Barad, Sylvain Sauvant, Juan Lopez, Emilie Claudel

Patent number: 9847954Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein relates to a frame switch of an AFDX network in which the data acquisition application is decentralized. When the switch has to acquire the data transmitted on a virtual link, the switching table contains, apart from the input port and the output port (s) taken by this link, an ID representing the MAC address of the switch. The frames of this link are then not only switched but also transmitted to the network interface of the switch and processed by a dedicated application (DDA), hosted inside the switch. This application can be interrogated by a remote server and transfer the data that it has stored locally.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2014Date of Patent: December 19, 2017Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS (S.A.S.)Inventors: Juan Lopez, Emilie Claudel

Patent number: 9619252Abstract: The disclosure relates to reconfigurable avionics equipment, subscribed to an onboard network such as an AFDX® network. The equipment has an architecture in two portions, a functional portion which makes it possible to perform the function proper to the piece of equipment and an interfacing portion, which allows the functional portion to communicate over the network. The interfacing portion includes a configuration file separate from the one used to configure the functional portion and able to be downloaded, using the network, independently of the latter.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2014Date of Patent: April 11, 2017Assignee: Airbus Operations (S.A.S.)Inventors: Juan Lopez, Emilie Claudel, Frédéric Lamy

Patent number: 9596142Abstract: The subject matter disclosed herein relates an on-board network with nodes linked by wired links, the on-board network being partitioned into adjacent sub-networks, mutually segregated by security elements. Each sub-network can be equipped with access points allowing mobile terminals to connect to the sub-network by wireless links. The access points of adjacent sub-networks use different communication standards or distinct sets of transmission resources in such a way that the segregation between adjacent sub-networks is preserved.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2014Date of Patent: March 14, 2017Assignee: AIRBUS OPERATIONS (S.A.S.)Inventors: Emilie Claudel, Estelle Fouassier, Juan Lopez
