Aerospace UniverSal opTical INterrogator (AUSTIN)

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

AUSTIN will address the need for an Aerospace 'Universal Interrogator' to permit the interfacing of different types of Photonic Sensors within a common Avionics box. This will provide the central element in any optically instrumented Aircraft. It will take known techniques, e.g. the Fibre Bragg Gratings and Fabry Perot, which are yet to be implemented in an Aerospace context, and combine them in a way never before attempted, to produce a versatile and configurable 'Universal Interrogator', capable of interfacing multiple sensor types in a single design. This will allow an optimised solution, with a high utilisation rate of the interfaces provided, regardless of the 'local' sensor types at any zone of the Aircraft.
