ONBOARD WEATHER RADAR FLIGHT STRATEGY SYSTEM WITH BANDWIDTH MANAGEMENT
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a hub system, one or more initial sets of data from a first set of one or more aircraft;
receiving, by the hub system, one or more secondary sets of data from a second set of one or more aircraft from among the first set of one or more aircraft, wherein the one or more secondary sets of data are related to a significant weather condition detected by the second set of one or more aircraft;
transmitting, by the hub system, an initial data stream to a particular aircraft, wherein the initial data stream is based at least in part on the one or more initial sets of data; and
transmitting, by the hub system in response to a request from the particular aircraft, a secondary data stream to the particular aircraft, wherein the secondary data stream is based at least in part on the one or more secondary sets of data related to the significant weather condition.

Abstract
This disclosure is directed to devices, systems, and methods for enabling and operating an onboard weather display system with managed bandwidth. In one example, a method includes receiving, by a hub system, initial sets of data from one or more aircraft. The method further includes receiving secondary sets of data from the aircraft, wherein the secondary sets of data are related to a significant weather condition. The method further includes transmitting an initial data stream to a particular aircraft, wherein the initial data stream is based at least in part on the initial sets of data from the one or more aircraft. The method further includes transmitting, in response to a request from the particular aircraft, a secondary data stream based at least in part on the secondary sets of data related to the significant weather condition.

16. An article of manufacture comprising a computer-readable medium having program code stored thereon, configured to be executable by one or more processors for causing the one or more processors to:
-
receive one or more initial sets of data from one or more aircraft; receive one or more secondary sets of data from one or more of the aircraft, wherein the one or more secondary sets of data are related to a significant weather condition detected by the one or more of the aircraft; generate an initial data stream for transmission to a particular aircraft, wherein the initial data stream is based at least in part on the one or more initial sets of data from the one or more aircraft; and generate, in response to a request from the particular aircraft, a secondary data stream for transmission to the particular aircraft, wherein the secondary data stream is based at least in part on the one or more secondary sets of data related to the significant weather condition. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)

19. A system for operating an onboard weather display system on an aircraft, the system being configured to:
-
receive an initial data stream based at least in part on one or more initial sets of data from one or more additional aircraft; transmit a request to a hub system for a secondary data stream comprising additional data associated with a significant weather condition indicated by the initial data stream; receive the secondary data stream, wherein the secondary data stream comprises additional data not comprised in the initial data stream; and generate a display based at least in part on the secondary data stream. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)

22. A hub system configured to enable an onboard weather display system on an aircraft, the hub system comprising:
-
means for receiving one or more initial sets of data from one or more aircraft; means for receiving one or more secondary sets of data from one or more of the aircraft, wherein the one or more secondary sets of data are related to a significant weather condition detected by the one or more of the aircraft; means for transmitting an initial data stream to a particular aircraft, wherein the initial data stream is based at least in part on the one or more initial sets of data from the one or more aircraft; and means for transmitting, in response to a request from the particular aircraft, a secondary data stream to the particular aircraft, wherein the secondary data stream is based at least in part on the one or more secondary sets of data related to the significant weather condition. - View Dependent Claims (23)
