Objective
Wireless pyrotechnics firing system on aircraft Establish a radio link between all the system’s modules (cockpit modules and wing modules).
- Wireless communication between each module in the cockpit and a firing module under the wings of the same aircraft. Since the aircraft can be quite close, the local controls of one aircraft must not interfere with the local controls of another aircraft.
- Synchronization communication and information feedback from other aircraft in the patrol for automatically synchronized firing by a lead aircraft.
- Integration of an altimeter and a GPS into each aircraft’s control unit, preventing the lights from being activated below a certain height (public safety) or above certain areas (fire safety). – The unit under the wings, directly connected to the wing’s pyrotechnics, must be able to verify before takeoff that the various pyrotechnics channels are properly connected.
- A mini-log integrated into the units, for later analysis.
Technical Solution
- ZIGBEE communication between the cockpit unit and the wing units of the same aircraft.
- HF communication between the aircraft in the patrol for firing synchronization.
- GPS on the central unit and altimeter.
