Concept information
Preferred term
AIMMS
Definition
- Smart sensor modules are combined using a Controller Area Network (CAN) to form the Aircraft-Integrated Meteorological Measurement System, or AIMMS-20, which delivers precise real-time meteorological data at rates up to 20Hz (temperature, humidity, wind). A minimum of four modules are combined to form an AIMMS-20 system: an Inertial Measurement Unit module (IMU) that delivers six degree-of-freedom rate data at 40Hz; a GPS Phase Module that processes satellite navigation signals from two antennas; an Air-Data-Probe (ADP) that measures temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and the aircraft-relative flow vector; and, a Central Processing Module (CPM) to process GPS data, inertial signals and air-data information that yield accurate wind data when combined.
