Abstract

Systems and methods for detection of network issues and health reporting to ground-based stakeholders are described herein. In exemplary embodiments, a system includes multiple aircraft, wherein an aircraft in the multiple aircraft communicates through one or more communication links. The aircraft includes processors that compile network event information related to degraded communication link events. Further, the aircraft includes memory units that store a degraded link event report and a configuration database, wherein the degraded link event report stores the network event information related to the degraded communication link events as directed the configuration database. The system additionally includes a network issue detector, in communication with the multiple aircraft, which receives degraded link event reports from the multiple aircraft, wherein the network issue detector includes processors that identify systemic degraded data link network problems with the communication links based on context identified in the degraded link event reports.
