Abstract

Future developments require an approach able to deal with virtual, hybrid and real equipment integration testing. Benches will be designed as live entities that can evolve during the different phases of the project, evolving from virtual integration to real equipment integration using the same bench. For this purpose, VISTAS EUROCAE (ED-247) standard approach is going to be demonstrated on an existing integration bench (traditional approach). VISTAS standard virtualize avionic signals -discrete, analog- and avionic buses -A429, CAN, AFDX …- on a standard Ethernet Bus. This standard includes also the possibility of failure injection. Benches architectures based on VISTAS provide more flexibility and enable important wiring reductions.
