Abstract. The article proposes a mathematical model for validation of messages of automatic dependent surveillance of broadcasting type (ADS-B). The relevance of the study is due to the growing requirements for the security and reliability of information systems, as well as the need to ensure the integrity and reliability of transmitted information in the context of modern threats. The paper presents the main components of the model, including information sources, data transmission channels and error detection mechanisms. The proposed model describes the processes occurring in the ADS-B systems, taking into account artificial and natural interference that affects the reliability of surveillance information, allows you to predict the actions of intruders trying to violate the integrity of the ADS-B systems, and to predict the operation of the ADS-B system under interference, provides the possibility of developing effective methods to validate ADS-B messages in the terminal area. Thus, the presented mathematical model for validating ADS-B messages serves as an important step towards improving the reliability of information systems and protecting critical information from unauthorized access and distortion.

Keywords: ADS-B, time difference, model, validation.

Methodology for automatic assessment of the convergencing aircraft hazard in the event of separation intervals violation

Abstract. The article proposes a method for automated high-precision assessment of the danger of approaching aircraft in case of violation of established separation standards on a continuous 100-point scale. The technique is a step-by-step search for the maximum hazard of approaching aircraft from the moment of the beginning of the violation of separation intervals to the end of the conflict situation. The main criterion for assessment is the linear functional dependence of the values of the minimum distances between aircraft, weighted in the established separation standards. A 100-point assessment will allow for the comparison and comparison of potential hazard between different facts of violations of separation standards, the severity of the threats and risks to flight safety contained therein.

Using “perceived hazard” as a reference points allows assessing the level of flight safety even in the absence of violations of separation intervals for the selected reporting period. The analysis of the estimates obtained using the methodology will help to take timely preventive measures to eliminate potential threats even before the occurrence of real aviation events.

It is advisable to use this methodology in solving the tasks of automating the assessment of practical skills of air traffic control personnel and creating an automatic flight safety management system.

Keywords: normalized coordinate system, normalized distance, violation of separation intervals, hazard of convergence, methodology for assessing the hazard of convergence.

Development of alternative ways to maintain the serviceability of PT6A engines based on the airline data

DOI 10.51955/2312-1327_2024_4_44

Abstract. The authors constructed a mathematical model for changing the parameters of an aircraft engine for use in the ECTM (Engine Condition Trend Monitoring) system, which will allow for the maintenance of foreign-made aircraft under sanction restrictions based on the airline data.

The mathematical model was constructed with the regression analysis method on the basis of statistical data of PT6A-114A engines technical operation over a five-year operation period. The proposed solution allows the values of the basic parameters of the PT6A-114A aircraft engine to be obtained, the operator having the opportunity to independently analyze the trends of changes in the engine condition without the ESTM system. The main advantage of the obtained research results is independence of the aircraft operator on foreign engine parameter assessment services. The airline can assess the engine parameters independently. One of the next stages of further implementation of the ECTM system within the airline is the development of software that will automate the process of reading the aircraft engine parameters, conduct their analysis and correlate to the engine operation and maintenance documentation and issue a plan of corrective actions on the engine and its components.

Keywords: aircraft engine, parameters, regression analysis, basic values, maintenance.
