Avionics and Mission Software

Lynx has rich experience in bare metal and RTOS hosted operational flight programs and mission systems applications. We employ industry standards like ARINC 653, MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429 and other US Government and Commercial FAA standards for avionics and flight software associated with Integrated Modular Avionics environments. We excel at blending the power of safety critical avionics with modern, high performance mission systems enabling rapid capability insertion and technology upgrades. We have a wealth of knowledge in aircraft and spacecraft flight software achieving safety certifications with high pedigree.

Open System Architecture

Our staff were part of the inception and maturation of multiple open standards and know how to leverage each standard. Some of the open standards we have had the most significant influence on are the following:

 

  • Open Mission Systems (OMS)
  • Universal Command and Control Interface (UCI)
  • Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACETM)
  • Common Open Architecture Radar Program Specification (COARPS)
  • Hardware Open Systems Technologies (HOST)
  • Sensor Open System Architecture (SOSATM)

Simulation and Training

Our teams have led multiple Live, Virtual, Constructive events and understand the details of the network and configuration needed for distributed mission operations. Leveraging available tools and standards like Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS), we provide creative solutions for this critical capability. Our staff were part of the creators of the new F-35 Embedded Training product line. We are passionate about providing meaningful simulation capabilities that maximize real, tactical software enabling rapid transition to fieldable capabilities on platforms.

Mission Computer Tech Refresh

Lynx is taking a prominent role in Mission Computer refresh programs. The efforts require porting OFPs from established single-core MIPS and PowerPC solutions to multi-core ARM and x86 processing environments without compromising the level of safety certification and minimizing re- certification impact. The work includes device driver development (e.g. MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429), standing up lab/test environments with each hardware delivery, and integration with an ARINC 653-compliant RTOS in a mixed-criticality system.
