ABSTRACT
The growth in aviation traffic has resulted enormous pressure on the
ability of existing
spectrum resources to satisfy expected air/ground communication requirements.
To address this issue, EUROCONTROL the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) initiated a joint activity under the International Aviation Organization
(ICAO) known as the Future Communication Study (FCS). The associated
work plan identifies three parts: developing
communications operating concepts and requirements; conducting a technology
assessment, and developing a transition and implementation roadmap.
This paper focuses on the development of initial concepts and requirements,
which is one the first steps in the process of defining a Future Radio
System (FRS), a subject which should be interest to planners in the
avionics industry.
