AET3212 — Avionics Communication Theory
This course introduces students to the theoretical concepts and practical maintenance of High Frequency (HF), Very High Frequency (VHF), and Ultra High Frequency (UHF) communications, as well as inter-cabin communication systems and the associated wiring and antennas. This course also introduces bench and ramp testing of components. Upon completion, students will be able to: identify the wiring associated with the communication components of the avionics systems and explain the operation of each wire; troubleshoot the communication system using appropriate schematics to identify faults; and install and test an antenna by using AC 43.13-2A and the manufacturer's installation manual.
