  3. Today‘s Shortcomings • increasing number of aircraft results in • reaching capacity limits on voice frequencies/ frequency shortage • overload of executive controllers • increasing challenge to ensure the safety of flight • voice communication implies potential of misunderstandings • no automated exchange of information between data processing systems in the Air and on the Ground • Airline requirements regarding data link are not satisfied

  4. Environment Relevant Strategies and Programs • Strategies, approved by DFS • ATM 2000+ • EATMS-OCD • EATCHIP-Communications Strategy • Important Programs • FAA- NEXCOM- Program • LINK 2000+ • PIT - PETAL Integration Team • Military Aviation • There was no specific military requirement for ATS-Data Link Services identified yet.

  12. Cost-Benefit Considerationstill in progress • DFS is a contributor to the ongoing Link 2000+ CBA. • The objective is to conduct a European-wide analysis. • The uncertainty* of early conducted cost estimations with particular focus to DFS was very high. Therefore, the introduction of Data Link Services** could notbe justified by economic reasons only.* At the moment of already conducted estimations there were very few reliable sources of monetary information regarding costs and benefits.** There was no individual investigation particular to singular data link services.

  13. Summary (1) • Future ATM-concepts depend on Air-Ground Data Link Services. • Air- Ground data communications is a major component of the„ATM Strategy for 2000+“. • The benefits of Air-Ground Data Link Services were demonstrated in the framework of PHARE and during the PETAL Life Trials. • The continued use of today's operational environment will result in further frequency shortages. • The cost/ benefit-ratio could not be finally calculated. There are a lot of currently unknown factors in the equation. This leaves the risk, that the figure will not justify the need.  The introduction of Air-Ground Data Link Services could not only be justified by a cost/ benefit-analysis.

  14. Summary (2) • The migration from ACARS to VDL M2 as the next generation AOC- Data Link media seems to be decided by the Airlines and the Service Providers (SITA/ ARINC). • Service Providers already decided on installation and operation of VDL M2 Ground- Infrastructure. • Airspace capacity shortages are expected when Data Link Services are not introduced before 2006. • DFS customers are requesting Data Link Services today, in order to receive enhanced and improved overall quality of ATC Services.

  15. Conclusions (1)Data Link Services There is a strategic requirement to introduce Air- Ground Data Link services within DFS controlled airspace. Therefore DFS introduces Air-Ground Data Link Services in a phased approach: Phase 0 (starting 1999): Initial Data Link Applications (Result of the Projects INDAL- DATIS and -DDCL) Phase 1 (starting 2005): non- time critical Data Link Services depending on operational requirements: Phase 2 (starting 2007): time critical Data Link Services

  16. Conclusions (2)Data Link Services • Data Link Services (main categories only) • Phase 1 (starting 2005): non- time critical Services • CPDLC (DCL, CIC- non time critical) • ADAP (CAP, SAP) • D-FIS (D-OTIS, D-SIGMET) • other Services (e.g. FLIPCY) • additional Phase 2 Services (optional starting 2007): time critical Services • CPDLC (CIC-time critical) • ADAP (PPD, ADS) • D-FIS (D-RVR) • other Services.

  17. Conclusion (3)Air-Ground Data Link Media • Non- time critical ATS Data Link- messages will use VDL M2 (medium timeframe, starting 2005) • The need for and the type of a “complementary Data- Link Media” (in addition to VDL M2) needs to be investigated and decided till 2001.In the light of the DFS- decision on Mode S Enhanced Surveillance, SSR Mode S communications will get special attention. • The operational requirement for the use of time critical ATS- Data Link- messages - and if so the type of the media - needs to be defined till 2002.
