The topics include securing wireless electronic-enabled airplane applications at airports: challenges and approaches, a novel approach for securing
air-ground communication, a vehicle health monitoring system using a secure wireless sensor network, wireless and flexible ice detection on aircraft, and a lightweight spatio-temporarily partitioned multicore architecture for the concurrent execution of safety critical workloads.
The Aviator 200S shipset aims at providing voice and data
air-ground communication for the Aircraft Control Domain (ACD) and the Airline Information Services Domain (AISD) as well as to the Passenger Information and Entertainment Services Domain (PIESD) in its alternate configuration (AVIATOR 700S).
These include more sophisticated FAC aircraft, improved communication vehicles and radios for use by the forward air controllers, new lightweight radar and ancillary support equipment, and compact
air-ground communication facilities.
However,
air-ground communication was poor, and after the battle, steps were taken to improvise air liaison parties (ALP).
The Aviator 200S shipset is designed to provide voice and data
air-ground communication for the Aircraft Control Domain (ACD) and the Airline Information Services Domain (AISD) as well as to the Passenger Information and Entertainment Services Domain (PIESD) in its alternate configuration (AVIATOR 700S).
The contract, which will last up to eight years, will allow SITA to upgrade its
air-ground communication system that is used to send weather briefings, gate information, equipment data and other information from airlines to pilots.
The indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract awarded to General Dynamics in April 2012 is part of the FAA's Next Generation
Air-Ground Communications (NEXCOM) Segment 2 program.
EE The contract is part of the FAA's Next Generation
Air-Ground Communications (NEXCOM) Segment 2 program which includes replacing outmoded air traffic control (ATC) air-to-ground radios with radios using the latest in communications technology.
With SESAR, a range of advanced technologies will be deployed, both embedded and on the ground, to improve
air-ground communications and flight management.
Air China also recently signed a strategic agreement with China Telecom, which will allow the two companies to cooperate in product development, IT,
air-ground communications, marketing and customer service.
Under the terms of the agreement the two companies will cooperate in marketing, product development and innovation, information technology,
air-ground communications, 3G applications and customer service.
The study evaluates the following interoperability areas: en route navigation, precision approach, non-precision approach,
air-ground communications, avionics, and approach lighting.
