Study Notes

Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA)

  • The Boeing 767 and 757 pioneered the use of digital federated architecture in commercial aircraft.
  • The industry recognized the need to transfer data files, not just individual data "words," across ARINC 429 in 1987.
  • The Boeing 777 marked the shift towards Integrated Modular Architecture (IMA) with the Airplane Information Management System (AIMS) Cabinet.
  • Functions like flight management, communications, and aircraft condition monitoring, formerly independent LRUs, are now implemented using IMA.
  • Traditional avionic systems use federated architectures with separate subsystems on their own hardware, physically isolated, which limits expandability.
  • Adding an LRU in traditional systems requires a new cable link to each existing LRU, supporting bit rates up to 100Kbps in one direction.
  • Classic ethernet-based data communication requires a connection of each unit to an ethernet bus for transmission and reception, with bit rates up to 10 Mbps.
  • A shortcoming of classic ethernet is long wait times, a switched ethernet uses a router/switch to direct traffic or buffer it, eliminating delays.
  • Avionics Full Duplex Switched Ethernet (AFDX) and quad cable transmission lines form the Avionics Data Communication Network (ADCN), which has two redundant networks, A and B.
  • In integrated modular avionics (IMA), subsystems share a common platform to better use resources like memory and processors- gaining popularity.
  • IMA saves 2,000 lbs. of weight on the avionics suite of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
  • IMA connects all "modules" (CPIOMs and IOMs by Airbus, GPMs by Boeing) to an Aircraft Data Network (ADN), routing information via AFDX switches to Line Replaceable Modules (LRMs).
  • IMA replaces point-to-point cabling with a "virtual backplane" data communication network.
  • The network connects software configurable LRUs that can adapt to changes, with software and the network defining active Virtual Links in real-time.
  • The system can quickly reconfigure in the event of failures, resulting in a more robust system.
  • Review the BITE Philosophy and BITE Function for generic information on BITE testing methodology in integrated modular avionics.

Cabin Systems

  • The cabin system interfaces the cabin crew with the cabin core system and the cabin monitoring system- passengers can use the system for entertainment.
  • The cabin system includes:
    • Cabin core system
    • Cabin monitoring system
    • In-Flight Entertainment System (IFE)
  • The cabin core system has manufacturer differences:
    • Cabin Intercommunication Data System (Airbus)
    • Cabin Service System Controller (Boeing)
  • The CIDS/CSSC operates, controls, monitors, and transmits data from different cabin systems related to passengers and crew, including system and unit tests.
  • The Airbus system has Directors, touchscreen Flight Attendant Panels (FAPs), and mini FAPs, all connected.
  • The CIDS allows programming to suit aircraft and operator requirements.
  • Software updates use the Flight Attendant Panel menu.
  • Three predefined and three modifiable cabin layouts are available via the Flight Attendants Panel, protected by an access code and only available on the ground.
  • Cabin zones can be changed using the Flight Attendants Panel.
  • The CIDS loudspeaker level adjustment is used for manual adjustment of the cabin loudspeaker output for announcements and chimes, accessed through a MP FAP menu page with an access code.
  • A Flight Attendant Panel set-up page controls internal settings including panel loudspeaker volume and screen brightness.
  • The CIDS is modular, with the number of components based on cabin layout and requirements
  • The CIDS directors are connected to all components, with one active and one in hot standby mode
  • The directors monitor system performance, store faults, and send them to the Warning and Maintenance System (WMS) and/or the FAP.
  • Multi-Purpose Flight Attendant Panels (MP FAP) are touchscreen interfaces between cabin attendants and CIDS directors, the Boeing version is called the Crew Attendant Panel (CAP).
  • The touchscreen panel indicates all the cabin information and is for cabin functions and programming, the sub panel has hard keys and interfaces.
  • Each mini FAP lets the cabin crew control and monitor support systems and passenger functions specific cabin zone.
  • Area Call Panels (ACPs) inform attendants of passenger, interphone, lavatory smoke detection, or evacuation, located on the cabin ceiling above the aisles.
  • Additional Indication Panels (AIPs) display call information or additional cabin system information like lavatory smoke location, installed at all attendant stations.
  • Additional Attendant Panels (AAPs) allows attendants to manage cabin support systems and passenger related functions in a specific cabin zone.
  • The CIDS system uses the following communication functions:
    • Passenger Address system (PA)
    • Cabin interphone
    • Service interphone
  • The passenger address system distributes PA announcements from the cockpit or the attendant stations to all assigned cabin loudspeakers and passenger headsets.
  • With the PA, a high-priority source interrupts a low-priority source, such as the cockpit and then attendant.
  • The cabin interphone system is used for the communication between cabin crew stations, and between cockpit and cabin crew stations- one or more links can be initialised at the same time.
  • The service interphone system facilitates communication between ground maintenance and cockpit/cabin crew, using service interphone jacks, cockpit acoustic equipment, cockpit handsets, and cabin handsets.
  • The cabin system controls the cabin general lighting and the passenger reading lights independently in each cabin zone, deck and room through centralised commands.
  • Individual commands are for passenger reading lights are entered via the PSUs and the IFE
  • The cabin system's emergency evacuation signalling function controls evacuation alerts in all areas and the cockpit.
  • Illuminated signs function controls exit signs, no smoking, fasten seat belts, and return to seat, as well as lavatory signs.
  • The cabin system passenger call function is activated from the passenger seats and lavatories, and is reset by the attendant at their panel.
  • The cabin system exchanges with the IFE, control commands for Passenger Call and reading lights operation, from passenger seats and IFE operation from the flight attendant panel.
  • The cabin system has an ADN interface with the air conditioning system to remotely control the cabin temperature within a given range, which will then show on the attendant panel.
  • The cabin system controls the water/waste system with the panel, which is used for water depressurisation, shutdown, and pre-selection of water for potable water tank refilling.
  • Electrical window shades use a centralized control in each zone, control within a zone is side selectable (left or right).
  • The cabin system uses ADN for an interface with the secondary power distribution system to display, via the flight attendant panel, the IFE and seat power status.
  • The cabin system uses ADN as an interface with the door and slide management system to show the doors and slides status through the panels.
  • The BITE information for cabin systems explains; BITE management is available through the FAP display and the flight deck MCDU.

In-Flight Entertainment (IFE) Systems

  • The IFE system has audio, video, data and interactive functions, such as games, on-board shopping, and internet.
  • This, along with passengers accessing telephone and data networks through an optional satellite communications link, is all provided via the cabin distribution network.
  • Airlines and regulatory agencies often prohibit mobile phone use while airborne. However, some carriers allow the use of mobile phones on selected routes with added technology.
  • In-flight internet is available through wifi and the aircraft can use satellite or air-to-ground networks to permit users to connect to the internet.
  • The IFE system includes IFE Centre (IFEC), the cabin distribution network and the passenger in-seat equipment.
