Abstract
The avionics industry has recently adopted an open architecture to increase software portability and reduce the development schedule and cost associated with changing hardware equipment. This paper presents a data modeling method compliant with FACE, a widely used open avionics architecture. A FACE data model is designed and implemented to output data from VOR/ILS avionics equipment. A FACE Conformance Test Suite (CTS) program is utilised to verify that the data model meets FACE standards. The proposed data modeling method is expected to improve the development schedule and cost associated with modifying communication methods and ICDs (Interface Control Documents).
