    Abstract: An air-data probe component includes an additively manufactured inner member (102). The inner member includes integrally formed, monolithic structures including a mandrel bulkhead (104) defining a plurality of pneumatic chambers (106, 108, 110, 112, 114) therein in fluid communication with an outer surface (116) of the mandrel bulkhead through respective pressure ports, and a plurality of pneumatic tubes (120, 122, 124, 126, 128) extending aft of the mandrel bulkhead along a probe axis, each in fluid communication with a respective one of the plurality of pneumatic chambers. An outer cover tip (144) can be engaged about the mandrel bulkhead with a plurality of bores (146) therethrough for fluid communication of outside air pressure into the plurality of pneumatic tubes through the outer cover tip. A forward surface of the outer cover tip can be flush, conformal, and continuous with an aerodynamic outer surface of an aircraft.

    Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to improving measurement of metrics determined by laser air-data systems subject to unwanted background light. Such measurements are improved by estimating and excising the unwanted background light from the total light received by an optical receiver (14) which receives a Doppler-shifted reflected portion of a projected beam of light backscattered by aerosols and air molecules of an atmosphere. The background light is estimated using a background-light rejection filter (16) that receives the light received by the optical receiver (14) after it has been filtered by a vapor cell filter (22) and separates the light received by the optical receiver (14) into a beam sampling portion and a complementary non-beam portion. The non-beam sampling portion is used to estimate the background light portion within the beam sampling portion, which also contains the Doppler-shifted reflected portion of the projected beam used for calculating the metrics of air data.

    Abstract: A windshield wash system includes a pump (12) with an inlet (12a) and an outlet (12b), and a fluid reservoir (11) fluidically connected to the inlet of the pump. A fluid delivery line (14) is fluidically connected to the outlet of the pump and at least one nozzle (18) is fluidically connected to the fluid delivery line. An electronic control unit (18) is in controlling communication with the pump. A pressure sensor (20) is in the fluid delivery line and is in communication with the electronic control unit.

    Abstract: A cloud phase detection system can include a light receiver system (101) configured to receive reflected light from a cloud, and a cloud phase module (103) operatively connected to the light receiver system and configured to calculate a fourth Stokes parameter and a multiple scattering ratio (MSR) parameter based on the reflected light. The cloud phase module can be configured to determine a phase of a cloud based on a relationship between the fourth Stokes parameter and the MSR parameter.

    Abstract: A detector includes a scoop portion (102). The scoop portion (102) includes a top surface (104) extending continuously from a forward tip to an aft end, a bottom surface (110) opposite from the top surface (104), and a receiving portion therebetween. The bottom surface (110) includes an aperture. The top surface (104) includes a detent formed therein opposite from the aperture across the receiving portion. The detent is configured and adapted to receive at least a portion of a sensor. A method includes additively manufacturing a scoop portion (102) and brazing a strut portion to the scoop portion (102). The scoop portion (102) includes an upper surface, a lower surface, and a receiving portion therebetween.

    Abstract: A secure network interface system includes a secure domain interface (206), a processing system (208), a network function device (220), and a network interface (230). The processing system is configured to send and receive information within secure systems, transmit configuration data for the network interface, compile data from the secure systems into a plurality of data packets, and transmit the plurality of data packets to the network function device without being physically capable of receiving data packets from the network function device, thus providing a demonstration of security partitioning. The network function device receives the configuration data, configures the network interface using the configuration data, and provides discrete feedback to the processing system regarding a configuration status. The network interface sends the plurality of data packets to one or more external unsecure systems (234) and to limits a communication protocol type received from one or more external unsecure systems.
