DEVICE FOR CONTROL OF FLYING VEHICLE USING COMBINED INFORMATION EXCHANGE SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2001 - IPC

FIELD: control of flying vehicles by means of microprocessor sets. SUBSTANCE: when flying vehicle has zones of concentration of electronic equipment, structure may be made in form of engageable starts at number of parties reaching ten. System includes combination of multiplex, local and common buses, two communication adapters and control unit. Control unit is made for check of number of received information words during operation in reception mode and absence of coding errors and shifting the controller/adapter top next communication session in case number of received information words corresponds to preset magnitude as well as in case one of above-mentioned conditions is not satisfied in the course of reception of information and forming respective message to central processor and finding-out indication of respective malfunction and recording it in word register of controller/adapter. Terminal is made for check of absence of coding errors of command word and check of coincidence of address. Use is made of several criteria in selecting the final version of realization of structure of information exchange: mass, power requirement, performance in terms of error probability, information efficiency and simplicity of logic organization. In construction of combined systems consisting of wire communication lines as main information transfer lines and fiber-optic communication line as standby lines, the basic principle is maintenance of logic organization of exchange. EFFECT: minimum power requirements; minimum scope of information exchange equipment; possibility of mating with multiplex bus for reception and transmission of information via wire communication lines and fiber-optic communication lines. 4 cl, 3 dwg
