Definitions
- the present invention is directed generally toward systems and methods for handling information from wireless nodes, including nodes for communication with aircraft.
- ground-based stations can include maintenance facilities, operational headquarters, and other organizations that use information (e.g., including statistical data associated with each flight) so as to plan maintenance procedures, improve aircraft routing, improve fuel efficiency, and improve other aspects of aircraft operation.
- Ground- based facilities can also transmit information to the aircraft, including data associated with upcoming or just-completed flights.
- a drawback of this arrangement is that the transmitters/receivers may be exposed to hostile environmental conditions that may cause the devices to fail and/or require maintenance more often than more typical wi-fi devices that are located indoors. Furthermore, as a result of the close proximity of the transmitters/receivers to aircraft taxiways, runways and gate aprons, it can be difficult to gain access to the transmitters/receivers while still complying with airport security measures and while not interfering with aircraft operations.
- a method in accordance with one aspect of the invention for handling information about an information network includes sensing information corresponding to a characteristic of a wireless node.
- the wireless node can be one of a plurality of wireless nodes that are in operational use, and that are configured to transmit and receive wireless signals.
- the method can further include transmitting the information corresponding to the characteristics of the wireless node.
- the sensed information can correspond to the status of a radio, power supply, filter, media converter, and/or housing positioned around these components.
- the information can be transmitted via a non-wireless portion of the network, or in a wireless manner from one wireless node to another.
- the sensed information can include a current or voltage level associated with one or more of the components, a temperature and/or humidity of the interior of the enclosure in which the components are housed, and/or a position of a door that provides access to the enclosure.
- the information can be automatically received and provided for access at a database.
- the information can be received over a period of time, and the method can further comprise organizing the information to present time- dependent trends associated with the information.
- the information can be reviewed to isolate a fault at the wireless node, and the wireless node can be serviced based on the information.
- Systems in accordance with further aspects of the invention can include a sensor configured to sense information corresponding to a characteristic of a wireless node, wherein the wireless node is one of a plurality of wireless nodes configured to transmit and receive wireless signals.
- the wireless nodes can be linked to a non-wireless network.
- the system can further include a transmitter configured to transmit the information via the non- wireless network, and a receiver operatively coupled to the transmitter to receive the information via the non-wireless network.

This and other information can be stored at the database 117 for access by the server computer 110 and other computers coupled to the network 101. Further details of the wireless nodes 120 and the corresponding information pertaining to the wireless nodes 120 are described below.
- Figure 2 illustrates in an aircraft 103 positioned proximate to two wireless nodes 120 (shown as a first wireless node 120a and a second wireless node 120b).
- the first wireless node 120a can be positioned on a light pole 240.
- the light pole 240 can support a transmitting/receiving antenna 222 and an enclosure 221 that protects components required to transmit and receive wireless signals.
- the enclosure 221 can be coupled to the non-wireless link 106 and can be located on a track 242 that allows the enclosure 221 to be easily removed for maintenance without requiring tall servicing equipment.
- the enclosure 221 can be positioned from about 30 feet to about 70 feet above the ground.
- the second wireless node 120b can be positioned closer to the ground when it is located a sufficient distance away from potentially interfering structures, including the terminal structures 243.
- the second wireless node 120b can be located near aircraft runways or taxiways 244.
- wireless nodes 120 having remote locations are relatively inaccessible, they can include sensors and associated equipment for tracking the states of the components comprising the nodes 120. Further details of these arrangements are described below with reference to Figure 3.
- FIG 3 schematically illustrates an enclosure 221 generally similar to enclosures 221 described above with reference to Figure 2.
- the enclosure 221 can include a weather-resistant box 323 and an access door 324 that is movable relative to the box 323 to provide access to the components inside.
- the enclosure 221 can include a NEMA enclosure (e.g., an enclosure that conforms to standards promulgated by the National Electrical Manufacturer Association).
- the components inside the enclosure 221 can include a two-way radio 326 (e.g., transmitter and receiver), a power supply 325 that provides power to the radio 326, a filter 327 that filters signals transmitted and/or received by the radio 326, and a media converter 328 that converts wireless signals transmitted and received by the radio 326 to non-wireless signals for transmission over the non-wireless link 106.
- a two-way radio 326 e.g., transmitter and receiver
- a power supply 325 that provides power to the radio 326
- a filter 327 that filters signals transmitted and/or received by the radio 326
- a media converter 328 that converts wireless signals transmitted and received by the radio 326 to non-wireless signals for transmission over the non-wireless link 106.
- interconnections between most of the components are not shown in Figure 3. These components are commercially available from suppliers including Kyocera of Kyota, Japan; Honeywell of Morristown, New Jersey; Molex of Lisle, Illinois; and Texas Instruments of Dallas
- the enclosure 221 can also house one or more sensors 329 (represented schematically and for purposes of illustration as a sensor module 331 that includes one or more sensors 329).
- the sensor module 331 can be configured to detect information corresponding to any or all of the components located in the enclosure 221 , and/or characteristics of the enclosure 221 itself.
- the sensor module 331 can be configured to determine current and/or voltage levels associated with any of the components, and/or any engineering values (e.g., power) that are based on current and/or voltage.
- the sensor module 331 can also be configured to detect a temperature within the enclosure 221 and/or a temperature of any of the components in the enclosure 221 , a humidity within the enclosure 221 , and/or any other characteristic of the enclosure 221 (e.g., the constituents of a gas within the enclosure 221).
- the sensor module 331 can also be configured to detect a status of the door 324 that covers the enclosure 221.
- the sensor module 331 can include a switch configured to detect whether or not the door 324 is open.
- the sensor module 331 can also detect a state of the antenna 221 and/or the non-wireless link 106.
- Figure 3 schematically illustrates a single sensor module 331 that includes one or more sensors 329, with each sensor coupled to a corresponding device and/or otherwise positioned to detect a characteristic of some part of the node 221.
- the sensors can be integrated with the devices they monitor, and/or a single sensor can monitor multiple devices.
- the sensor(s) 329 can be coupled to a transmitter 330.
- the transmitter 330 can be configured to receive raw data from the sensor(s) 329 and convert the data to a format that is compatible with the non-wireless link 106, the server computer 110 ( Figure 1), and/or the airline computers 102 ( Figure 1).
- the transmitter 330 can include a processor (e.g., a microprocessor) and software that automatically perform the conversion and transmission process.
- the transmitter 330 can include other hardware and/or software components.
- the sensor(s) 329 can obtain diagnostic information corresponding to the status of the wireless node 120 while the node 120 is in operational use (e.g., installed and coupled to the network 101 shown in Figure 1 , whether or not the node 120 is actually transmitting or receiving data).
- the transmitter 330 can transmit this information over the network 101 (e.g., via the non- wireless link 106).
- a corresponding receiver e.g., located at the server computer 110 and/or the airline computers 102 described above with reference to Figure 1 can receive and/or process the information.
- the transmitter 330 can be configured to transmit diagnostic information via the antenna 221. Accordingly, the transmitter 330 can provide notification to the server computer 110 that the non-wireless link 106 is damaged, and, if other components within the enclosure 221 are also damaged, the transmitter 330 can provide diagnostic information pertaining to those components as well.
- the entire network 101 ( Figure 1), or at least the portion of the network 101 between the nodes 120 and the server computer 110 can be wireless. Accordingly, the diagnostic information can be transmitted wirelessly to the server computer 110 and/or other receivers.
- FIG. 4 is a flow diagram illustrating a process 400 for handling information corresponding to wireless nodes, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention.
- the process 400 includes sensing information corresponding to a characteristic of a wireless node.
- the characteristic can include diagnostic information associated with components that form the node, including electronic components and/or mechanical components.
- the information is transmitted.
- the information can be transmitted over a non-wireless link or a wireless link to a server computer.
- the information is received (e.g., at the server computer).
- a determination is made as to whether an action is warranted, based on the information received in process portion 403.
- the information received in process portion 403 can be used to isolate faults associated with the wireless node.
- the information can be used to determine whether any one of the components at the node has failed, and/or whether failure, or an unacceptably degraded performance of any of the components is upcoming and/or imminent. If an action is warranted, the action can be taken in process portion 405. Such an action may include scheduling maintenance for the affected node, shutting the affected node down, obtaining parts required to repair the affected node, and/or completing repairs. If no action is required, the process 400 returns to process portion 401. [0024] In particular embodiments, the information received in process portion 403 can be compiled and/or organized in process portion 406.
- process portion 406 can include associating the information with the affected node, tracking historical data associated with the affected node (and other nodes), and/or other methodologies for making use of the diagnostic information received in process portion 403.
- the voltage, current, temperature, and/or humidity values detected by the sensors can be correlated with the strength of signals provided by the nodes. This information can be used to predict when signal strength may fall below acceptable levels, and can allow the operator to schedule maintenance accordingly.
- One feature of embodiments of the systems and methods described above with reference to Figures 1 -4 is that they can be arranged to automatically provide information about the health or other status of wireless nodes in a harsh and/or inaccessible environment, including, but not limited to, outdoor airport locations.
- the node itself need not be physically accessed to ascertain this information. Instead, a server computer and/or other computer (e.g., the airline computers 102) can be used to monitor this information and can automatically provide prompts to operators identifying the affected node, the information associated with the affected node, and/or a proposed response. Accordingly, the nodes may not need to be serviced on a regular maintenance schedule, but can instead be serviced only when necessary.
- the information provided by the sensor(s) can be used to isolate faults or at least narrow the list of potentially faulty components. This can reduce the amount of time required to service the components, and can reduce the degree to which such service interferes with surrounding operations (e.g., airport operations).
- the sensors can be used to predict an upcoming failure. For example, if over the course of time the data indicate that a power supply that fails to provide a power level above a threshold level for a given period of time is likely to fail, the operator can take preventative action by (a) monitoring the power supply, and (b) replacing the power supply in a deliberately scheduled service call before the power supply fails. By taking preventative action, the operator can reduce down-time by scheduling maintenance for a time when security checks are easier to make (e.g., at times during which the airport is not busy) and/or when aircraft traffic is relatively light.
- the amount of time that the node will be without power can be significantly reduced because the power will be shut down for only as long as it takes to replace the power supply.
- This is unlike existing arrangements in which, after a power supply fails, the operator must schedule a time for accessing the node, must pass through multiple security levels to access the node, must wait for aircraft traffic to diminish enough to allow access to the nodes, and must then spend time diagnosing the problem.
