Abstract
The embodiments described herein can provide improved reliability and accuracy of communication to and from and aircraft, such as aircraft-to-aircraft communication and aircraft-to-air traffic control (ATC) communication. In particular, the systems and methods can improve the reliability and accuracy of aircraft communication by performing voice-to-text conversions on voice communications and performing a validation check on the resulting voice-to-text converted message. This validation check determines a measure of validation for the voice-to-text converted message. In one embodiment, the voice-to-text converted message can be displayed to a user with a visual indicator of the measure of validation. Thus, the user can be made aware of the measure of validation when viewing the voice-to-text converted message. Such a system and method can be used to provide the user with increased information regarding the reliability and accuracy of the voice-to-text converted message, and thus can provide improved communication to and from the aircraft.
