The IP-based broadband aeronautical satellite network will provide numerous new applications and services for both airspace system operations and passenger communications. Application of commercial off the shelf technologies and techniques has the potential to make network operations economically and technically realizable. However the performance of data communication protocols and application...

Scientific problems related to modern aeronautical engineering and dealing with basic properties of shear flows and the associated fluid mechanics phenomena are emphasized. In this context some recent experimental results on subsonic aerodynamics are considered.

As the integrated Network Enhanced Telemetry (iNET) program moves forward in resolving systems engineering design and architecture definition, critical technology “gaps” and a migration path to realizing the integration of this technology are needed to insure a smooth transition from the current legacy point to point telemetry links to a network oriented telemetry system. Specifically, identifi...

The discussions and examples in this section are based on the Sectional Aeronautical Chart (Sectional). Sectionals include the most current data and are at a scale (1:500,000) most beneficial to pilots flying under Visual Flight Rules. A pilot should have little difficulty in reading these charts which are, in many respects, similar to automobile road maps. Each chart is named for a major city ...

1. Aeronautical Communications Systems must be reliable and efficient. Connection to Aeronautical networks is considered to be achieved by satellites with large coverage areas especially over oceanic regions during long-haul flights. The service concept needs to take into account today's peculiarities of satellite communications, thus it must cope with the available or in near future available ...

This paper present a mechanical characteristics on fatigue crack propagation in Aluminium Plate based on strain and stress distribution using the abaqus software. The changes in shear strain and stress distribution during the fatigue cycle with crack growth is identified. In progressive crack in the strain distribution and the stress is increase in the critical zone. Numerical Modal analysis of...

Woven fabric reinforced composite materials are typically applied in plate or shell structures, such as ribs, stiffeners and skins. Products of this type can be manufactured with several processes. A few examples are compression moulding, diaphragm forming, matched metal die forming and Rubber Press Forming (RPF). Shape distortions can occur during manufacturing of composite products. During th...

demonstrator implementation of an advanced airport data link is described which is used for data exchange between pilots and controllers in future surface movement guidance and control systems on airports. To fulfil future airport capacity requirements, the proposed data link has to be a high capacity, high rate data link. Therefore, the data link design is based on multi-carrier code-division ...
