Abstract: A method and apparatus for assessing performance of an operation for a vehicle. Real-time information is received by a computer system in the vehicle from at least one of a vehicle operator or a group of hardware systems in the vehicle during the operation for the vehicle. The performance of the vehicle operator in performing the operation is determined by from the real-time information. A graphical image of the feedback is displayed in a display system in the vehicle during the operation in which the graphical image provides guidance in operating the vehicle to perform the operation. The graphical image of the feedback comprises a graphical indicium of a corrective action for the correcting operation of the vehicle while carrying out the operation of the vehicle in which the graphical indicium enables improving performance of the operation of the vehicle by the vehicle operator.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing data in a platform. A first permission level is identified for first data in the data generated by a source in the platform. A second permission level is identified for an intended recipient of the first data. The first data is modified to form second data in the data in which the second data has the second permission level. The second data is distributed to the intended recipient.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing a simulation. Information about the simulation is received over a wireless communications link with a computer system in an aircraft. The information is received during running of the simulation and identifies a performance of the computer system running the simulation. The running of the simulation is controlled based on the performance of the computer system.

Abstract: A multiple beam antenna system may be constructed for reducing a spillover loss n efficiency, improving beam crossover, and reducing undesired sidelobes by the addition of three dielectric lenses between a feed horn cluster connected to a beam forming network and an objective collimator. The system includes a beam forming network including a plurality of feed horns in a feed horn cluster, an objective, and an imaging lens having a lateral magnification less than unity for focusing a reduced image of the feed horn cluster at a predetermined point in space. A field lens is positioned at that predetermined point in space, and an amplitude shaping lens is positioned between the field lens and the objective. The amplitude shaping lens redirects the rays of the image transmitted by the field lens to be denser in the central region of the objective, and reduce the sidelobes of the far field pattern of the transmitted beams.
