Abstract
In the aerospace scenario, the use of sensors and sensor networks is to be encouraged as potentially versatile and reliable, but it is necessary to consider the constraints related to security that may limit the development of these structures. The possibility that there are technical criticalities that could damage the vehicles must be limited, so each device must be safe and reliable in every situation, and this implies the use of suitable components and specially designed structures. In this context, we propose an NFC type access structure to be applied to the sensors or to the network, for their possible configuration, activation or update. In this situation, the sensor is structured as a closed box without any physical access that could be damaged. The hardware and firmware structure has been realized. In order to communicate with even a mobile application has been developed. This object thus becomes a communication interface with the sensor, which becomes accessible without the need for serial or USB ports and so opening the possibility communicate with it by means of cell phones or tablets.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
