Embodiment 1

[0065] Embodiment 1 includes a method comprising: using an in-vehicle radio system to determine whether the in-vehicle personal computing system is authentic, wherein the radio system is configured to: (a) communicate with at least one ground system, and (b) coupling to the vehicle system; if the personal computing system is authenticated, creating a link between the personal computing system and the radio system; and at least one of: utilizing the radio system to restrict data routing to at least one of the following and routing of data from at least one of: (a) one or more vehicle system types, (b) one or more applications of at least one of the vehicle system and the personal computing system; One or more types of data transmitted between a personal computing system and a vehicle system; and utilizing a radio system to route data between a personal computing system and at least one of: (a) at least one ground surface that does not pass through a communications management sys...

Embodiment 2

[0066] Embodiment 2 includes the method of embodiment 1, wherein determining whether the personal computing system is authentic comprises using certificate-based authentication to determine whether the personal computing system is authentic.

Embodiment 3

[0067] Embodiment 3 includes the method of any one of Embodiments 1-2, wherein restricting which data is routable includes using Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port filtering, User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port filtering, and IP address filtering. at least one of to limit which data can be routed.

Abstract

The invention relates to a system and method for enabling external device connectivity to avionics systems. The invention discloses a method. The method comprises: determining if a personal computingsystem in a vehicle is authentic using a radio system in the vehicle, where the radio system is configured (a) to communicate with at least one ground system and (b) to be coupled to a vehicle system;if the personal computing system is authenticated, creating a link between the personal computing system and the radio system; and at least one of: restricting data routing to and from at least one of: (a) vehicle system type(s), and (b) application program(s) of at least one of the vehicle system and the personal computing system; restricting data type(s) transmitted between the personal computing system and the vehicle system; and routing data between the personal computing system, and at least one of (a) at least one ground system not through a communications management system and (b) thevehicle system.

Description

Background technique [0001] Pilots bring portable computing systems on board and wish to utilize applications on such personal computing systems to perform aircraft-related functions, such as uploading flight plans entered into the personal computing system to the aircraft's flight management system, determining the aircraft's center of gravity , and communicate with others, such as airline operations centers. Aircraft are generally not designed to facilitate connectivity between personal computing systems and aircraft systems. Accordingly, there is a need to cost effectively facilitate secure connectivity between permitted personal computing systems and aircraft systems. Contents of the invention [0002] The present invention provides a program product. The program product includes a non-transitory processor-readable medium having program instructions embodied thereon, where the program instructions are operable to: use a radio system in a vehicle to determine whether a ...
