BITE Design
Expert in BITE Design and Integration for End-to-End Development Solutions covering all Aircraft Systems
BITE Designer
- End-to-End development of the BITE (Built-In Test Equipment) function for various aircraft systems, covering all standards and type-specific directives.
- Definition of FMD (Fault Message Description) and FDS (Failure Description Specification), including Normal Mode and Interactive Mode.
- Specification of :
- Fault detection logics
- Classification of faults and associated cockpit effects
- The functional and physical architectures of internal and external failures.
- Decoding and analysis of digital data frames: ARINC 429 and AFDX.
* The BITE function takes the form of a code intrinsic to the controller, enabling monitoring of a system’s nominal behavior.
BITE Integration Tests
- Comprehensive Verification and Validation of failure detection logics: NO GO, GO IF, and GO :
- Authoring of test procedures.
- Preparing and performing tests.
- Analysis of results, identification of anomalies and their root causes, authoring of TRAs (Test Report and Analysis).
- « Spurious Hunting » of failures impacting Aircraft Operability and Maintainability.
BITE Maturity
- Operational impact assessment.
- Prioritization and tracking of anomalies.
- Drawing up mitigation plans.
- Update of TSM (Trouble Shooting Manual) procedures.
- Reporting to entities concerned by the BITE Maturity:
- Airlines,
- Systems/Equipment manufacturers,
- Aircraft manufacturers,
- etc…
Enhance the monitoring of your aeronautical systems’ nominal behavior.
