09 - Air Transport System EfficiencyASSESSMENT OF REAL-TIME DATA TRANSMISSION VIA AD-HOC COMMUNICATION NETWORKS IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC OCEANIC AIRSPACEA. Hillebrechtą, T. Marksą, V. Gollnick, Hamburg University of Technology, Germany; ąGerman Aerospace Center, Air Transportation Systems, Germany Aeronautical data link communication plays an increasingly important role in the current air transport system, enabling efficient and safe operation of aircraft even in congested airspace. In our work we present an operational performance assessment of a novel data link technology enabling data link communication via ad-hoc aircraft networks in an oceanic airspace. |
