The Problem of Obsolete Avionics
One issue that fleet owners face for their older aircraft is the obsolescence of avionics systems. This paper presents different strategies for addressing this growing problem, including replacing obsolete line replaceable units (LRUs) using commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products.
The History of Wireless Technology and Recent Developments Towards Modern Transmitters
This white paper looks at the early developments in electromagnetic theory and electronics (the 1800s to 1960s) and the modern era of electronics (1960s to present). It discusses the current technologies finding their way into modern transmitters.
Video Compression Quality and Performance for Airborne IP Cameras
There is increasing demand for high-quality HD video for airborne applications such as flight test instrumentation (FTI). Ideally, new HD cameras can reduce the weight and difficulty of installing wiring, and enable data to be coherently combined with images through built-in compression.
