Tactical advantage on the battlefield of the future will be based on trust and personnel will need a higher level of trust that all systems will work as needed in any situation.

This white paper discusses different strategies for gathering data for flight data recorders and the implications these have on deployment time, system flexibility, and suitability for deployment across a fleet of diverse aircraft.

This white paper discusses the need for, and challenge of, compact space COTS systems for modern space applications, in particular for small launcher applications.

Aircraft operators are keen to accurately assess and extend an aircraft’s life. This white paper presents some of the challenges associated with managing instrumentation, data and certification over the lifetime of a continued airworthiness program.

This white paper discusses how readily available flight data recording devices can be combined with rugged data acquisition and transmission systems for missile test applications.

In this white paper, Paul Cook looks at Flight Termination Systems and how switching to a serial wiring approach can reduce wiring and allow for additional features.

Flight test engineers encounter situations where they need to use photogrammetric analysis to determine how objects, surfaces, and mechanical systems perform. This white paper will discuss what is required for success.

This white paper discusses the flight test community’s move to the C-Band spectrum, the current status, and how smoothly this transition is occurring.

This conference paper describes the benefits of using a mixture of both FPGA and CPU based technologies in conjunction with flexible software in a Flight Test context.

This paper looks at the challenges of designing a small data acquisition system that can provide hundreds of channels of measurement capability while operating in tight spaces exposed to fluids, high vibration, and extremes of temperature.

The benefits of using value-added services and how this can be achieved without disrupting core data acquisition.

In this paper, we describe the problem of developing sensor fault detection within airborne instrumentation systems, and solutions based on machine-learning techniques.
