Fiber-Optic Implementation of MIL STD-1553: A Serial Bus Protocol

Abstract

This thesis explores the design and implementation of a fiber optic link for use in MIL STD-1553 environments. The discussion includes specific hardware and software designs to demonstrate a basic fiber optic implementation of the standard. These designs are presented in sufficient detail to allow reconstruction with a minimum of effort. Results such as Built-In-Test performance and Maximum Data Rates are included. The design and associated fiber optic link provide a good prototype to be used for further research involving fiber optic solutions for serial data link Local Area Networks.
