Analysis on Avionics System Architecture and Navigation

Abstract

"Avionics and navigation products are not under the consumer product categories. Only who are working in this field will have more chances to familiar with it. Thus, we are seldom heard about our friend or relative talk about it. In order to let more people understand about what are avionics products and how it function, and how important to our life. My ultimately objective is to analysis avionics architecture and navigation; then compile and summary all the related information, so that people will easily understand. In this project, I was able to complete MD-11 avionics architectures and navigation system as below: Architecture: • Auto Flight System (AFC) • AFS Actuator • Communication System • Entertainment System • Display System • Recording System • MD-11 Navigation System • MD-11 maintenance System • Generalized architecture for aircraft System Controller (ASC) • CNS/ATM

Navigation System: • VHF Omnidirectional Range • Distance Measurement Equipment • Automatic Direction Finder • Instrument Landing System (LOC, GS and MB) • Global Positioning System "
