The paper deals with the development of a smart probe for the measurement of aircraft angle-of-attack and angle-of-sideslip, capable of tolerating the loss of one or more pressure data. The probe an embedded system that includes six MEMS pressure/temperature sensors and a control electronics implementing multiple reconstructions of the flow measurements, up to obtain fault-tolerant output data.
