There is an increasing interest in the current aeronautical context to offer new services for
civil aircraft passengers. For example, airlines want to offer their customers the opportunity to …

Aeronautical communication systems are constantly evolving in order to handle the always
increasing flow of data generated by civil aviation. In this article we first present …

Current aeronautical communications are extremely limited by the obsolete ATN standard,
which does not allow aircraft to communicate directly with each other. The aeronautical …

The increase in air traffic and the use of digital communications in ATM create a need for
new communication solutions. In this article, we present an aeronautical ad hoc network …

Research into mobile ad hoc networks (MANET's) has exploded in recent years. MANET's
are a type of wireless network in which independently mobile nodes are capable of self …

Recent research have considered aeronautical ad hoc networks as a possible mean for
future aeronautical communications. By introducing inter-aircraft links, they are supposed to …

There has been an enormous growth in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) in land based
small to medium size networks with relatively strict power and resources. In this paper the …

We present air to air communication (AAC) a wireless protocol designed for communication
among airplanes as well as airplanes and control centers. AAC enables the broadcast of …

General Aviation (GA) is destined to be an active area compared with airline scheduled civil
aviation. The figures with much more aircrafts. pilots and private airports than airline aviation …

The engineering vision of relying on the “smart sky” for supporting air traffic and the “internet-
above-the-clouds” for in-flight entertainment has become imperative for the future aircraft …
