Patent EP-3393061-A1 (EP)
Inventor: TRUONG TUONG K
IPC: G02B6/28
Filed: 2018-04-11
Abstract: A controller area network (CAN) comprising a plurality of CAN nodes that communicate via a CAN bus that comprises a fiber optical network. The fiber optical network uses a single fiber and a single wavelength for transmit and receive, and comprises a passive reflective optical star. The reflective optical star comprises an optical mixing rod having a mirror at one end. The other end of the reflective optical star is optically coupled to the transmitters and receivers of a plurality of optical-electrical media converters by way of respective high-isolation optical Y-couplers. Each CAN node produces electrical signals (in accordance with the CAN message-based protocol) which are converted into optical pulses that are broadcast to the fiber optical network. Those optical pulses are then reflected back to all CAN nodes by the reflective optical star.

Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to using an image of a fiducial (62) located indicating a parking location for the aircraft (18) to provide docking guidance data to a pilot of an aircraft (18). The fiducial (62) has vertically-separated indicia (68, 70) and laterally-separated indicia (64, 66). A camera (54) is configured to mount at a camera location so as to be able to capture two-dimensional images (72A-I) of a scene external to the aircraft (18). The two-dimensional image (72A-I) includes pixel data generated by the two-dimensional array of light-sensitive pixels. A digital processor (56) identifies first and second sets of pixel coordinates corresponding to the two vertically-separated (68, 70) and the two laterally-separated (64, 66) indicia, respectively. The digital processor (56) then calculates, based at least in part on the identified first pixel coordinates corresponding to the two vertically-separated indicia (68, 70), a range (R) to the parking location.
