FADEC — Rotary Aircraft Engine Control
Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and motor-generator software for a redundant Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) system on a rotary aircraft engine, with spark ignition control implemented and wider development ongoing.
I am responsible for Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and motor-generator software within a redundant FADEC project for a rotary aircraft engine at the A. Kemenov Design Bureau. Together with the project lead, I co-develop the system architecture, technical solutions, and embedded software architecture for the engine control units.
The ongoing work covers real-time control, rotor-position synchronization, ECU arbitration, diagnostics, and degraded operating modes. It also includes requirements, failure-mode analysis, and validation planning. Spark ignition control has been implemented; development of the wider control system continues.
