Department of Measurement

Synopsis:

In aerospace technology are used specific bus systems. Students will acquaint with aerospace and industrial distributed systems for data acquisition, preprocessing, data transmission and concrete application for measurement and control. The emphasis is put on aerospace buses and the buses for service and diagnostic aerospace technology. The goal is to provide information necessary for the service of fieldbuses and the conceptual open system design. Students will verify in labs acquired theoretical knowledge.
