Abstract

As the low-altitude economy grows, electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft are heralding a revolutionary phase in urban air mobility (UAM) due to their unique characteristics. Avionics, being a critical infrastructure component of these aircraft, necessitate the exploration and development of a new generation of avionic system architectures specifically for eVTOL. This paper presents an avionics system architecture tailored for UAM scenarios. It conducts a reliability analysis of this system architecture by converting fault trees into bayesian network models. The analysis, based on fault probability and posterior probability, concludes that the proposed avionics system architecture possesses high reliability. This study is instrumental in guiding the development of avionics for both eVTOL and unmanned aerial vehicles.
