Publication number: 20250013229Abstract: An aircraft comprising a first power supply such as a battery, avionics including a plurality of sensors that provide aircraft parameter information, a transceiver and a gateway. The gateway includes a processing system and is coupled to the first power supply, avionics and transceiver. The gateway is configured to operate in a first mode to receive from the transceiver a remote wake request initiated by a user of a remote communication device, power on at least portions of the avionics in response to the received remote wake request by causing the first power supply to be coupled to the at least portions of the avionics, receive aircraft parameter information from the powered on portions of the avionics, and provide the received aircraft parameter information to the transceiver for transmission from the aircraft, optionally to the user of the remote communication device.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2024Publication date: January 9, 2025Applicant: Cirrus Design Corporation d/b/a Cirrus AircraftInventors: Austin Matthew Murch, David Andrew Rathbun, Bradley T.

Patent number: 12150061Abstract: An aviation connectivity gateway module for remote access to an aircraft's systems and remotely offloading its aircraft data. The module broadly comprises a CPU, a first set of communication elements, a second set of communication elements, a memory, a battery, an IMU, a GPS module, and a number of antennas. The module responds to remote prompts and offloads aircraft data when the aircraft is powered off. An aviation connectivity gateway module for complete BVLOS cellular network connectivity broadly comprises a CPU, a set of electronic connectors, a memory, an IMU, a GPS module, a first cellular connectivity element, a second cellular connectivity element, and a number of antennas. The module switches between the first cellular communication element and the second communication element based a status of the aircraft.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2023Date of Patent: November 19, 2024Inventors: Matt Dondoneau, Johan Wiig, Ross Eickhoff, Andy Stromme, Justin Koob, Bradley T.
