How is failure detected in a quadruplex system?(a) Cross comparing signals and voting(b) Monitoring signals(c) Adding signals(d) Subtracting signalsThis question was addressed to me by my college professor while I was bunking the class.My question is from Redundancy and Failure Survival in FBW topic in chapter Fly by Wire Flight Control of Avionics

Answer» RIGHT answer is (a) CROSS comparing signals and VOTING

For explanation: Failure signals are detected by cross comparison and MAJORITY voting. In a quadruplex system, every channel cross compares every other channel to DETECT a failure in its own channel. For example, if three channel has signal ‘x’ and one has signal ‘y’, the majority signal is voted as good and the channel with signal ‘y’ is disconnected.
