Abstract

An oxygen supply system is provided for generating oxygen from cabin air in an aircraft. The oxygen supply system exhibits a modular cabin unit with an oxygen port and a decentralized oxygen supply unit with an oxygen outlet, and the decentralized oxygen supply unit is set up in the modular cabin unit. The decentralized oxygen supply unit is set up to generate oxygen-enriched air from the cabin air by means of electrical power, and the oxygen-enriched air can be provided to the oxygen port of the modular cabin unit via the oxygen outlet.
