Aeromacs - an Airport Communications System
نویسندگان
چکیده
The future airport surface communication system, called AeroMACS, shall be based on the IEEE 802.16 standard, in particular on the "WiMAX Mobile System Profile Specification". In the course of the SANDRA project the IEEE standard and the WIMAX mobile profile have been investigated and different configuration options have been evaluated. This paper presents an overview of options related to data exchange and possibilities how to integrate an AeroMACS system into an IPS based communication network. Furthermore, selected results from a performance evaluation study are shown.

Application of Multihop Relay for Performance Enhancement of AeroMACS Networks
A new transmission technology, based on IEEE 802.16-2009 (WiMAX), is currently being developed for airport surface communications. A C-band spectrum allocation at 5091 to 5150 MHz has been created by International Telecommunications Union (ITU) to carry this application. The proposed technology, known as AeroMACS, will be used to support fixed and mobile ground to ground applications and servic...
متن کاملImproving the Forward Link of the Future Airport.dvi
In the context of the future communication system for the airport surface operations (AeroMACS), we investigate the 2×1 Alamouti scheme applied to the 802.16e standard for improving the performance of the forward link. We propose a novel space-time coding realization which preserves the original frame structure of WiMAX, analyzing its performance in a realistic airport environment. Simulation r...

متن کاملan Optimum Resource Allocation Model for Airport Passenger Terminals (RESEARCH NOTE)
According to the current Airport planning and design practices, for a given demand level there is a corresponding space requirement. While in practice, there are always trade-offs between cost and levels of service, labor and automation, equipment and fixed facilities, and expansion of existing facilities and the addition of new ones. In this research, the airport passenger Terminal Building (P...
