AVNC 100Basic Avionics3
Provides basic knowledge of the subject of avionics. Topics include: radio frequency spectrum displays and technologies, fundamentals of instrumentation systems, air data systems and sensors, radio systems, fundamentals of radio propagation, and radio navigational aids. Also, the course includes ADF, VOR, DME, NDB, ILS, MLS, HSI, marker beacon, and transponder operation and functioning. The Theory of GPS, flight control systems, and the basics of radar systems will also be covered.
Study of the basic principles of communication systems used in modern aircraft, including avionics transmission and reception systems, HF, VHF, UHF, and satellite systems. Further the course will explore basic RF systems, RF transmitters, signal generation, signal detection and amplification, carrier modulation AM, FM, SSB, antenna theory, antenna systems, and related test equipment. In addition, information on maintenance levels, FAA and FCC requirements, aircraft drawing and various manufacturers’ support manuals will be used.
Topics include avionics digital and microwave systems, microwave theory, and radar with application to airborne systems. Also included are on-board navigation and display systems including computer-based components, GPS, digital avionics buses, flight management systems, and avionic system integration in current aircraft. Avionics package design, heads-up displays, and surveillance systems, including weather radar, radar altimeter, transponder, TCAS, and GPWS are also included.
Topics include discussion on the early history of aircraft dynamics and control, mathematical models of linear system elements, feeD.B.A.ck system analysis, vehicle equations of motion, longitudinal and lateral dynamics, and elementary longitudinal and lateral feeD.B.A.ck control. The course includes such topics as the system design process, inputs and system performance assessment, the root locus analysis of a generic acceleration autopilot, multi-loop flight control systems, methods for modeling the human pilot, and the integration of the human pilot into an aircraft flight control system.
