Since the beginning of the century, an increasing amount of air traffic has pushed current aeronautical communication systems to their limits. Therefore, a modernization process is ongoing, envisioning to digitalize previously analog systems and …
The amount of air traffic is rapidly recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic and beginning to rise above previous levels. As a result, the VHF band is expected to become saturated in the near future, harmfully affecting air traffic management. As one …
This document provides an overview of the architecture of the L-band Digital Aeronautical Communications System (LDACS), which provides a secure, scalable and spectrum efficient terrestrial data link for civil aviation. LDACS is a scheduled, reliable …
Since the beginning of the century, an increasing amount of air traffic has pushed current aeronautical communication systems to their limits. Therefore, a modernization process is ongoing, envisioning to digitalize previously analog systems and …
In Europe the Single European Sky air traffic management master plan foresees the introduction of several modern digital data links for aeronautical communications. The candidate for long-range continental communications is LDACS. LDACS is a …
Aeronautical communications systems are currently undergoing a modernization process. Analogue legacy systems shall be replaced with modern digital alternatives, offering higher bandwidth, increasing capacity and paving the way for Unmanned …
