| Wi-Testbed |
Testbeds to evaluate protocols for critical communications with airborne applications |
- Phase 1: Concept of operation completed
- Phase 2: Creation of project team completed
- Phase 3: Funding proposals to project team members in progress
- Phase 4: Project implementation
|
Implement a wireless testbed to evaluate the most appropriate protocol for critical communications with airborne applications; ID key performance nodes, and Resistance to EMI/EMP/HIRF.
|
| Wi-Engine |
Replace the wiring harness and sensors currently used for engine monitoring with
a wireless system that reduces the wire, wire connectors, wire holds, weight, component
volume, system cost and maintenance cost. |
- Phase 1: Concept of operation and Creation of project team in progress
- Phase 2: Funding proposals in progress
- Phase 3: Teaming agreement
- Phase 4: Project implementation

Implementation of a Wireless Sensor System for Engine Monitoring |
| Wi-SHM |
In-situ SHM of thick laminate composite structures |
- Phase 1: The Wi-SENSE project team lead by NASA LaRC to formulate the concept of
operation
- Phase 2: Funding proposals in progress
- Phase 3: Teaming agreement
- Phase 4: Project implementation

Structural health monitoring of the main fuselage and/or the main structure |
| Wi-Sense |
Address the need for passive wireless thermal, acceleration, and acoustic emission
sensors for structural health monitoring. This includes the distribution of sensor networks and the necessity for large quantities of sensors for testing and monitoring large structures |
- Phase 1: The Wi-SENSE project team lead by NASA LaRC to formulate the concept of
operation
- Phase 2: Funding proposals in progress
- Phase 3: Teaming agreement
- Phase 4: Project implementation
|
Simplification of the testing process, enhanced accuracy of test results, and reduced test time for larger surface areas |
