System for exchanging data in an aircraft
A system for exchanging data in an aircraft between at least two on-board devices which are interconnected by a communication link clocked at a predetermined link frequency, a first device being configured so as to: acquire measuring signals at frequencies native to the measuring signals; create frames on the basis of the measuring signals according to the native frequencies; and transmit the frames at the predetermined link frequency to a second device via the communication link.
1. A system for exchanging data in an aircraft between at least two on-board devices which are interconnected by a communication link clocked at a predetermined link frequency, wherein a first device comprises a buffer memory and is configured to:
acquire measuring signals at frequencies native to said measuring signals, the values of said native frequencies being higher than or equal to said predetermined link frequency,
create frames on the basis of said measuring signals according to said native frequencies by storing in buffer memory said measuring signals a plurality of times at different moments, and
simultaneously transmit said frames at said predetermined link frequency via said communication link to a second device.
2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the second device is configured to:
acquire said frames at said predetermined link frequency, and
concatenate the data of said frames to recreate said measuring signals.
3. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the communication link is an Ethernet type link.
4. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the first device is a monitoring computer of an aircraft engine, configured to monitor the operation of the engine and to detect, if applicable, anomalies.
5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the second device is configured to transmit said measuring signals to a ground station.
6. A system for monitoring an aircraft engine including the system for exchanging data according to claim 1 , said system further including:
on-board sensors in the aircraft engine and the environment thereof, configured to measure parameters relating to the aircraft engine and the environment thereof, and
a monitoring computer of said aircraft engine, configured to record the measurements from said sensors in order to monitor the operation of said aircraft engine.
7. An aircraft engine equipped with the monitoring system according to claim 6 .
8. A method for exchanging data in an aircraft at a predetermined link frequency, comprising:
acquiring measuring signals at frequencies native to said measuring signals, the values of said native frequencies being higher than or equal to said predetermined link frequency,
creating frames on the basis of said measuring signals according to said native frequencies by storing said measuring signals a plurality of times at different moments, and
simultaneously transmitting said frames at said predetermined link frequency.
9. The method according to claim 8 , further comprising:
acquiring said frames at said predetermined link frequency, and
concatenating data from said frames to recreate said measuring signals.
