The SAE International AS-2 Embedded Computing Systems Committee is developing an aerospace standard that the organization says will simplify the design of advanced integrated systems using time-triggered protocol (TTP), resulting in system lifecycle cost savings.
TTP is one of the core technologies for design of open time-triggered architecture (TTA) and generic control system platforms for deterministic, modular, scalable and reusable aerospace systems.
According to SAE International, TTA reduces system complexity and lifecycle costs in safety-critical, fault-tolerant and distributed on-board systems.
TTP is selected for integration of key systems in commercial aircraft such as Airbus A380 and Boeing 787, as well as military jets.
SAE AS6003 - TTP Communication Protocol standard will protect past and ongoing system design investments and simplify design, system integration and incremental modernization of open aerospace and defense systems and architectures, SAE said.
