Analysis on intelligent architecture and function of airborne system

Abstract

Airborne system is developing towards the direction of integration, intelligence and automation. The integration of the system is usually realized by the way of cross-linking of the system. The cross-linking relationship among systems is complex, and the number of cables is large, which can increase the complexity of the whole airborne system. Requirements for hardware resources of the airborne system are very high, and the contradiction between the high demand for the integrated airborne system and the slow upgrade speed of hardware resources appears. The demands for intelligent airborne systems are also developed. A distributed cloud-edge-terminal intelligent architecture for airborne system is proposed, which combines cloud-edge-terminal technology, distributed network control technology and distributed integrated modular avionics system technology. The architecture is reasonably constructed through cloud management platform, edge control platform and terminal platform, and is configured with high-speed secure real-time network and container software technology. The architecture proposed in this paper can increase the degree of integration of the multi-aircraft airborne system while without increasing the whole aircraft complexity. The architecture can meet the requirement of the new technologies application such as artificial intelligence, information fusion, large data processing, and the expansion of new functions.
