20090310529 | Picocell and control method for wireless data transmission in an aircraft as well as the aircraft - A picocell in an aircraft for the wireless transmission of data between at least a mobile station in the aircraft and a base station in the aircraft in which a communications connection between the at least one mobile station in the aircraft and a subscriber in a terrestrial communications network is established via the base station. In order to enable passengers automatically the use of their mobile radio devices, when no risk of danger to the flying operation is to be expected, or otherwise to refer them to a corresponding ban, a flight control device is provided for detecting flight data and for setting up the picocell in dependence on the flight data | 12-17-2009 |
20140309811 | WIRELESS NETWORK FOR CONTROLLING THE OXYGEN SYSTEM OF AN AIRCRAFT - A control device for activating an oxygen system of a means of transport, in particular an aircraft, a control system having such a control device, an associated method for activating an oxygen system of a means of transport, in particular an aircraft, and a computer program for carrying out the method. Furthermore, a network is provided for a means of transport, in particular for an aircraft. The control device for activating the oxygen system comprises a first activation unit which is configured to activate at least a part of the oxygen system by wireless transmission of a first activation signal. | 10-16-2014 |
20140323170 | METHOD FOR CONSIDERABLY ENHANCING THE AVAILABILITY OF WIRELESS CONNECTIONS - A control unit and a method for controlling a wireless data transmission between a wireless terminal and access points of a communications network in a transportation device, as well as a computer program for executing the method. The wireless terminal is assigned to two or more of the access points in such a way that one communications channel is available between the wireless terminal and the access points for wireless data transmission between the wireless terminal and the access points. A control unit is used, in the case of transmission from the access points towards the wireless terminal, to select at least one of the access points for wireless transmission to the terminal and/or in the case of transmission from the terminal towards the access points, to determine a message for further use in the communications network based on the messages received from the terminal by the access points. | 10-30-2014 |
