DO-278A Training, Aviation Ground Systems CNS/ATM

DO-278A training gives you the required information, notions, rules, background, guidelines, and methods associated with DO-278A. By taking DO-278A, you can learn about DO-278A, Software Integrity Assurance Considerations for Communication, Navigation, Surveillance and Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM) Systems.

RTCA DO-278 guideline, also known EUROCAE ED-109, is the ground aspect of the DO-178B airborne standard. RTCA DO-278 delivers the strategies for the assurance of software included in non-airborne CNS/ATM systems. DO-178B/ED-12, Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification, describes a series of goals that are projected to implement assurance that airborne software has been evaluated, and in some examples, altered for usage in non-airborne CNS/ATM systems. DO-278 is considered as an explanatory lead for the usage of DO-178B standard to non-airborne CNS/ATM systems. Therefore, one can say these two standards are consistent.

Ground processing systems mainly use commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) software and hardware for securing the flight crucial data. Therefore, the COTS ground processing systems should be reliable and safe to provide the reliability of the data. This needs different techniques, containing data protection, integrity and, access security. We will teach you the application of hazard evaluation and weakness assessment as a tool for creating a successful risk reduction plan.

DO-278 delivers the strategies for the generation of software for ground-oriented avionics systems and tools that conduct their planned operation with safety. Such strategies are in the form of:

  • Software life cycle objectives
  • The actions and design processes to accomplish these objectives
  • Presenting the criteria that demonstrate that the objectives are fulfilled
