AUTONOMOUS DISTRESSED AIRCRAFT TRACKING SYSTEM

摘要

The invention is an autonomous anomaly response unit comprising: a signal coupler in communication with a selected avionics sensor in the aircraft avionics system, the signal coupler functioning to acquire from the selected avionics sensor a monitored sensor signal configured in a first signal format; a signal processor for receiving the monitored sensor signal and cross-formatting the monitored sensor signal into a selected sensor reading configured in a second signal format; a parameter check for evaluating the selected sensor reading such that a monitor trigger signal is issued in response to detection of an anomaly in the selected sensor reading; and a response module configured to issue an emergency response alarm in response to receiving the monitor trigger signal.

1. An autonomous anomaly response unit suitable for monitoring an aircraft avionics system and initiating an emergency response if the aircraft operational state escalates to a distressed stage, said anomaly response unit comprising:
a signal coupler in communication with a selected avionics sensor in the aircraft avionics system, said signal coupler functioning to acquire from said selected avionics sensor a monitored sensor signal configured in a first signal format; a signal processor for receiving said monitored sensor signal and cross-formatting said monitored sensor signal into a selected sensor reading configured in a second signal format; a parameter check for evaluating said selected sensor reading such that a monitor trigger signal is issued in response to detection of an anomaly in said selected sensor reading; and a response module configured to issue an emergency response alarm in response to receiving said monitor trigger signal.
