Against to the unsustainable problems of health diagnosis, fault location and fault tolerance mechanisms that existing in the current avionics applications, we proposed a fault-tolerant communication middleware which is based on time-triggered in this paper. This middleware is designed to provide a support platform for applications of the real-time based on communication middleware. From the communication middleware level and also combined with time-triggered mechanism and fault-tolerant strategy, it diagnoses the general faults first, and then routes them to the appropriate fault mechanism to process it. So the middleware completely separates fault-tolerant process from the application software functions.
