Abstract: A communication node for use in a distributed communication network, a communication network and a method for monitoring communication and cybersecurity in a distributed communication network are provided. The communication node includes, but is not limited to a communication module, a memory, and a processor. The communication module is configured to communicate with a communication module of another communication node in a distributed communication network and to store a local copy of a blockchain ledger in the memory. The processor is further configured to generate a record to be added to the local copy of the blockchain ledger stored in the memory every time the communication node communicates with any of the plurality of communication nodes in the distributed communication network. The processor is further configured to verify and monitor the permissioned blockchain by consensus computing and previous hash comparisons.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing distributed fleet communications between aircraft including decentralized location tracking, weather data, and fleet health is used to determine actual aircraft position, better weather data from multiple sources, and health data to help with logistical calculations and increase efficiencies. The communication is a distributed communication network using blockchains wherein the block includes a data, a hash and a prior hash, determining, by a processor, a validity of the block in response to a blockchain register stored on a memory, the hash and the prior hash, determining, by the processor. The processor is configured to generate a record to be added to the local copy of the blockchain ledger stored in the memory, then send an update to the fleet blockchain to be added as a valid record to be stored and used by the fleet or other trusted individual operators.

Abstract: A system and a method for drone detection and collision avoidance, particularly for use in an aircraft, is provided. The system includes, but is not limited to a sensor, a processor, and an avoidance unit comprising a control unit. The sensor is configured to detect a drone signal in a predetermined space and to transmit the drone signal to the processor. The processor is configured to determine the presence of a drone in the predetermined space based on the drone signal. The processor is configured to transmit a command to the avoidance unit when the processor determines the presence of a drone. The control unit is configured to receive the command and to generate a warning signal in response to receiving the command.

Abstract: A communication node, such as a line replaceable unit and/or a sensor for use in a distributed communication network in a vehicle, particularly an aircraft, is provided. The communication node includes, but is not limited to a communication module and a processor unit. The communication module is configured to communicate with a target communication module of a target communication node of a plurality of communication nodes in the distributed communication network in the vehicle. The processor unit is configured to automatically and dynamically determine an optimum communication path through the communication network for communication between the particular communication node and a target communication node and to configure the communication module to exchange data with the target communication node over the optimum communication path through the distributed communication network.
