Abstract: A system and method of communicating a signal is disclosed. An aircraft 102 is moved so that an aircraft-based coil 106 is within a selected volume defined by a ground-based coil 116. A current is modulated in one of the aircraft-based coil and the ground-based coil to generate a magnetic field in the volume. A current generated in the other of the aircraft-based coil and the ground-based coil in response to the generated magnetic field is measured to communicate the signal.

Abstract: An actuator assembly (100) includes an actuator body (140), a ram (170), and a cross pin (180). The actuator body has an internal axial cavity (141) bounded by an actuator body wall (143) and defines a pivot axis (P). A longitudinal slot (148A, 148B) extends along a portion of the length of the actuator body wall and is in communication with the internal axial cavity. The ram is slidably received within the axial cavity of the actuator body. The cross pin is mounted to the ram and extends laterally from the ram and into the longitudinal slot for converting linear motion of the ram into rotational motion about the pivot axis for displacing a control surface (20) of an air vehicle (10).

Abstract: A method for evaluating a collective alignment of rotor blades (215) for an aircraft (205) while the aircraft is on the ground is disclosed. The method includes determining an air density altitude, and determining a torque value for each engine (220) of the aircraft (205), while the aircraft rotor blades (215) are operated at a normal speed and the rotor blades are set to a full down position for ground operations via a collective controller (235). The method further includes evaluating the collective condition by comparing the torque value to a predetermined flat pitch torque alignment limit for the air density altitude, and providing an indication of the collective condition.

Abstract: An active safety barrier circuit is disposable in series with an electrical conductor at a barrier between an adverse environment and an outside environment for passing an analog signal over the electrical conductor across the barrier while preventing potentially dangerous electrical threats from entering the adverse environment over the electrical conductor. The safety barrier circuit comprises: an analog-to-digital converter circuit for converting sequential time samples of the analog signal to a train of electrical digitally coded words which are output sequentially from the analog-to-digital converter circuit; an optical isolator for converting the electrical digitally coded words into light signals which are passed across an electrically non-conductive barrier which prevents potentially dangerous electrical threats from entering the adverse environment over the electrical conductor, and for reconverting the light signals back into the electrical digitally coded words after crossing the non-conductive barrier, the reconverted electrical digitally coded words being output sequentially from the optical isolator; and a digital-to-analog converter circuit for reconstructing the analog signal from the reconverted electrical digitally coded words being received sequentially from the optical isolator without affecting substantially the accuracy thereof.
