This document discusses aeronautical communication and wireless cabin architectures for aircraft. It introduces concepts like using satellite connections to provide coverage over oceanic regions. It also provides technical overviews of communication standards like UMTS, Bluetooth, and IEEE802.11b that could be used. It describes the role of a service integrator to provide interfaces for wireless and wired services. It also covers topics like service dimensioning, interference types in a collectively mobile heterogeneous network, and concludes that this technology will revolutionize aircraft communication.

2. OVERVIEW Introduction Cabin architecture Satellite connection Technical overview Service integrator Service dimensioning Interference CMHN conclusion

3. INTRODUCTION In the fucture,airliners will provide a variety of entertainment and communication equipment to the passenger.

4. Aeronautical communication

5. Wireless cabin architecture Gsm telephony is prohibited in commercial aircraft due to the uncertain certification situation It should not be seen as an alternative to wired architecture in an aircraft.

6. Satellite connection It will cover the cover areas especially over oceanic regions

8. Technical overview UMTS It is the third generation mobile communication system being developed within IMT-2000 framework.

9. Bluetooth Bluetooth operates in the unlicensed 2.4--GHz ISM (industrial scientific and medical) band and uses a frequency- hopping spread (FHSS) technique to minimize interference A Bluetooth unit has a nominal range of approximately 10 meters .

11. C. IEEE802.11b The IEEE 802.11 b standard offers a maximum throughput of II Mbps (typical 6.5 Mbps) working in the same 2.4- GHz ISM band as B1uetooth by the use of direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS).

12. SERVICE INTEGRATOR The service integrator will provide the interfaces for the wireless and wired service access points in the cabin.

13. SERVICE DIMENSIONING The system dimensioning process can be structured in several steps: • Determination of gross traffic per aircraft using the multi-service model • Determination of the timely and locally varying traffic
