 OVERVIEW

B.Tech Avionics engineering is a specialization that comprises Electronics and Computer systems along with the aviation sector. The word avionics is derived from the word aviation and electronics and it includes a number of core electronic and electrical subjects, for example, Digital electronics, communication, computer systems, and control systems, which helps to understand deeply electronics use in the aviation industry. The scope of Avionics covers the electronic systems installed on all Aerospace Vehicles, be it aircraft or spacecraft & also ground-based surveillance and support systems.

The scope of Avionics not only encompasses the electronic systems installed on all Aerospace Vehicles, be it aircraft or spacecraft, but also ground-based surveillance and support systems. Avionics systems include Fly-By-Wire Flight Control Systems, Human Machine Interfaces, Navigation Systems, Communications Systems, Vehicle Health Management Systems, Sensors, Networking, Flight, and Air Traffic Management Systems. With Avionics Systems constituting almost forty percent of the overall aircraft cost, avionics is a multi-billion-dollar industry word wide and rapidly flourishing. The essence of Avionics is to design for Space Weight and Power constrained environments where safety criticality is the overriding factor. Resultantly, avionics engineering is applicable not only to airborne and space borne platforms but all autonomous systems where safety is paramount, self-driving cars being a prime example. Futuristic transportation systems like Urban Air Mobility and Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) will further enhance the scope of Avionics Engineering.
