Abstract

Since its release 1553B has come to be regarded as the preferred Standard for medium speed transmission of data within aircraft. It has been adopted by the United Kingdom as DEF-STAN 00-18 (Pt.2), by NATO as STANAG 3838 AVS and by the Avionic Standards Co-ordinating Committee as Air-Std 50/2. Among the factors which have encouraged the use of the standard are high interference immunity and integrity and the availability of wide variety of components, specifically designed for use in 1553 systems. The availability of test plans and expanding ranges of test equipment designed to test 1553 systems has been a major factor. The Standard has been chosen for use in a wide variety of US and European aircraft, both current and under development, and although it was conceived for avionic applications it has also been selected for missile systems, submarines, surface vessels, and ground vehicles
