Airborne Monitoring and Control Systems

Lecturer:

Pavel Pačes, Karel Draxler (gar.)

Tutor:

Pavel Pačes, Karel Draxler (gar.)

Supervisor:

Department of Measurement

Synopsis:

The course is determined for students studying Aeronautics and Astronautics specialization. It provides detailed knowledge about airborne monitoring and control systems used on boards of aircrafts and spacecrafts nowadays, GPWS, ISN, FADEC, and EEC included. Full automatic monitoring and controlling systems of aircraft and spacecrafts propulsions are taught as well. Furthermore, the course focuses on descriptions of hierarchical structures of these systems and their networks. Partially it focuses on types of flight simulators and unmanned aerial vehicles, and military applications.

Requirements:

Syllabus of lectures:

1. Analog and digital airborne monitoring systems and their hierarchical structures

2. Principles and methods for assuring the safety of the airborne systems and subsystems

3. Methods and means for avionic systems programming

4. Avionics systems and their software certification procedures

5. Means and subsystems of aircraft and spacecraft monitoring systems

6. Propulsions automatic control systems (FADEC, EEC etc.)
