Astronautics’s AeroSync wireless airborne communications systems—AeroSync Mission and AeroSync Max—will be the standard-fit connectivity solution for the Airbus H125 and H130 for helicopters entering service beginning in late 2022 and early 2023, respectively. Astronautics (Booth 4312) is demonstrating the system this week at Heli-Expo, highlighting air ambulance, law enforcement, search and rescue, and executive-use cases.
AeroSync is a secure, wireless data transmission system that provides high-speed flight, mission, and maintenance data export and storage services to enhance Airbus’s Flight Analyser and FlyScan fleet-monitoring connected services. AeroSync collects data throughout the flight, and that data is then available for fleet monitoring on landing. For example, in air ambulance applications AeroSync Mission can stream patient cardiac data from Phillips' Tempus Pro automatic electronic defibrillator monitor to its Corsium data transfer solution. At its Heli-Expo booth, the Astronautics demo simulates real-time data transmission between a healthcare team in the air and on the ground.
FAA TSO approved, AeroSync can stream mission data and video between aircraft and ground from any external device. It also meets FAA and EASA security standards. “The flight crew and passengers remain connected to the ground,” said Astronautics director of connected aircraft solutions Matt Frei.
“Adding the option for in-flight cabin connectivity adds a broadband capability that connects up to 10 client devices; offers worldwide, affordable data services; and a Wi-Fi access point extending up to 400 feet from the aircraft for mission connection on the ground and in the air,” he said.
