  2. Fault Tolerant Wireless Avionics Bus FT-WAB Abstract This presentation explores the possibility of using fault-tolerant wireless communications to act as a data bus in an aircraft. Currently no aircraft is known to use wireless communications to convey signals from sensors to the avionics applications and from there to the actuators that control the aircraft’s behavior. A new generation of commercial and military airplanes is scheduled to start using a fiber-optic channel as their main bus. As wireless technology evolves, the possibility of using a wireless network to replace the wired bus in an aircraft needs to be studied. The benefits of a FT-WAB are presented along with limitations and drawbacks to that approach. The focus of this presentation is fault tolerance methods to enhance safety for a wireless solution from a systems engineering perspective. Biography Mr. Jorge Buenfil is a Senior Software Engineer of the Systems and Design Software Support Department at Rockwell Collins Inc. (RC), Cedar Rapids, IA. He has responsibility for promoting and supporting modeling efforts at the system and application level. Other responsibilities include training and technical support for the Unified Modeling Language (UML) and UML tools, vendor tool evaluation, and mentoring of project engineers in the proper application of systems and software modeling. He is chair of the communications committee of the INCOSE Heartland Chapter, member of the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers, and American Mensa. He received a B.S. in Public Administration, and a M.S. in Computer Science from the National University of Mexico. He is currently finishing his M.Eng., in Systems Engineering from Iowa State University.
