K. Yazdanian
ONERA, France

Keywords: relational model, information management, pilot controller communication

The controller-pilot communication has been based on voice radio communication for several decades. It is now facing bandwidth saturation. The communication process can be improved using new existing technologies based on computers. A database modeling of the involved information and asynchronous exchange via database update and querying using data link between controllers and aircraft is proposed. Security improvement aspects are emphasized.
