High-rate data link general specification for the NOAA-OPQ polar orbiting environmental satellites and EUMETSAT satellite systems

The document is a reference document in the Instrument Interface Description for NOAA-2000 Instruments (GSFC-S-480-53). The requirements reflect the fact that these instruments must be compatible with a number of different polar orbiting satellite vehicles including the NOAA-OPQ satellites and the EUMETSAT METOP satellites. The instrument payload will interface to the spacecraft via several standardized communication busses. The document defines a uni-directional point-to-point single-user interface for transfer of high rate data (greater than 100 kbs) between instruments and a spacecraft system.

Runway Incursion Prevention System ADS-B and DGPS Data Link Analysis Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport

A Runway Incursion Prevention System (RIPS) was tested at the Dallas - Ft. Worth International Airport in October 2000. The system integrated airborne and ground components to provide both pilots and controllers with enhanced situational awareness, supplemental guidance cues, a real-time display of traffic information, and warning of runway incursions in order to prevent runway incidents while also improving operational capability. Rockwell Collins provided and supported a prototype Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (ADS-B) system using 1090 MHz and a prototype Differential GPS (DGPS) system onboard the NASA Boeing 757 research aircraft. This report describes the Rockwell Collins contributions to the RIPS flight test, summarizes the development process, and analyzes both ADS-B and DGPS data collected during the flight test. In addition, results are report on interoperability tests conducted between the NASA Advanced General Aviation Transport Experiments (AGATE) ADS-B flight test system and the NASA Boeing 757 ADS-B system.

A Novel High Frequency, High Bandwidth, Three Phase Mach Zehnder Optical Data Link [Slides]

Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) produces high yield, high bandwidth signals that must be sent over large distances. A three phase Mach Zehnder modulator system helps resolve many of the issues faced with measuring these signals. This setup requires a three step reconstruction program. The testing results from OMEGA show this setup was successful and is ready for fielding at Inertial Confinement Fusion, including the National Ignition Facility (NIF).

Guidance system operations plan for manned CM earth orbital missions using program Skylark 1. Section 2: Data links

A computer program to define the digital uplink and downlink for use in manned command module orbital missions is presented. The subjects discussed are: (1) digital uplink to command module, (2) CMC digital downlink, (3) downlist formats, (4) description of telemetered qualities, (5) flagbits, and (6) effects of Fresh Start (V36) and Hardware Restart on flagword and channel bits.

Sensitivity Analysis of Data Link Alternatives for LVLASO

As part of this research, we have modeled the Mode-S system when used to enhance communications among several ground vehicles to facilitate low-visibility landing and surface operations. The model has then been simulated using Bones Designer software. The effectiveness of the model has been evaluated under several conditions: (i) different number of vehicles (100, 200, and 300), (ii) different distributions of interarrival times for squitters: uniform, exponential, and constrained exponential, and (iii) Different safe distances (for collision purpose): squitter length, 1.5*squitter length, and 2* squitter length. The model has been developed in a modular fashion to facilitate any future modifications. The results from the simulations suggest that the Mode S system is indeed capable of functioning satisfactorily even when covering up to 300 vehicles. Certainly, about 10 percent of the squitters undergo collisions and hence the interarrival times for these is much larger than the expected time of 500 msec. In fact, the delay could be as much as 2 seconds. The model could be further enhanced to incorporate more realistic scenarios.

Incorporating Data Link Features into a Multi-Function Display to Support Self-Separation and Spacing Tasks for General Aviation Pilots

One objective of the Small Aircraft Transportation System (SATS) Higher Volume Operations (HVO) project is to increase the capacity and utilization of small non-towered, non-radar equipped airports by transferring traffic management activities to an automated Airport Management Module (AMM) and separation responsibilities to general aviation (GA) pilots. Implementation of this concept required the development of a research Multi-Function Display (MFD) to support the interactive communications between pilots and the AMM. The interface also had to accommodate traffic awareness, self-separation, and spacing tasks through dynamic messaging and symbology for flight path conformance and conflict detection and alerting (CDA). The display served as the mechanism to support the examination of the viability of executing instrument operations designed for SATS designated airports. Results of simulation and flight experiments conducted at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Langley Research Center indicate that the concept, as facilitated by the research MFD, did not increase pilots subjective workload levels or reduce their situation awareness (SA). Post-test usability assessments revealed that pilots preferred using the enhanced MFD to execute flight procedures, reporting improved SA over conventional instrument flight rules (IFR) procedures.

Incorporating Data Link Messaging into a Multi-function Display for General Aviation Aircraft

One objective of the Small Aircraft Transportation System (SATS) Project is to increase the capacity and utilization of small non-towered, non-radar equipped airports by transferring traffic management activities to an automated system and separation responsibilities to general aviation (GA) pilots. This paper describes the development of a research multi-function display (MFD) to support the interaction between pilots and an automated Airport Management Module (AMM). Preliminary results of simulation and flight tests indicate that adding the responsibility of monitoring other traffic for self-separation does not increase pilots subjective workload levels. Pilots preferred using the enhanced MFD to execute flight procedures, reporting improved situation awareness over conventional instrument flight rules (IFR) procedures.
