Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) for the construction, commissioning, testing, and unification of integrated communication systems in terms of the composition of devices and the functions of the software used in them. Particular attention is paid to the so-called integration station (built at AFIT as part of the modernization of Mi-8, Mi-17, and Mi-24 helicopters) intended for commissioning onboard radio stations integrated on the basis of digital data buses (including the MIL-1553B standard) and the mobile set of control and measurement equipment of the ZDZSŁ-1 type intended for their operation and diagnosis. Possessing such a station and an operation and diagnostic set allowed AFIT to integrate new devices, prepare and transfer new radio communication plans to helicopters, and diagnose elements of the integrated system. An example of this is the completed modernization of the W-3PL “Głuszec” helicopter for the needs of the Polish Armed Forces and the system project for the TS-11F “Iskra” aircraft. Selected tasks carried out using this station and problems arising during the commissioning and testing of the developed software integrating communication devices in terms of unifying its functionality and operational reliability are discussed. The control and measurement equipment used to test this software, including the M230 industrial computer for diagnosing the integrated communication system, is also presented. It enables, among other things, the introduction and testing of software for individual radio stations, the communication server, and the preparation of radio communication plans.
THE DIAGNOSING OF COMPUTER INTEGRATED COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS IN AIR TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS
The paper has been intended to present research/testing tools used in the Air Force
Institute of Technology (AFIT) to build integrated communication systems and test operation thereof, as far as both devices that compose the system and the applied (…)
