PLUGTESTS THE INTEROPERABILITY SERVICE

Air Traffic Management VoIP

 
 
 

Interoperability Plugtests event

VoIP technology fulfils Voice ATM requirements

Convergence of Voice and Data into one network is observed on the market. As a consequence the Air Traffic Management Voice communication infrastructure is evolving to integrate this convergence.
The capability of voice over IP technology may fulfil and improve operational and technical Air Traffic Management communication requirements, including voice/data convergence, specific quality of service (QoS), security and safety requirements.

EUROCAE WG67 defines standards guaranteeing ATM VoIP interoperability

EUROCAE, thanks to its working group 67 (WG67), including system and equipment suppliers, main European Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSP), FAA and Eurocontrol, defines for Ground-Ground ATS voice communications and Ground-Ground part of air-ground ATS Voice communication, interoperable interfaces between Voice Communication systems (VCS), Voice recording systems, Supervision systems, Ground radio stations and all IP network elements to guarantee safe and secure voice communications in an Air Traffic Management environment.

Plugtests Event consolidates standards definition and prepares EATM Voice products provision

In order to consolidate this definition a Plugtest Event organised by ETSI and implemented by Suppliers and ANSPs is planned from 14 to 18 April 2008 at Sophia Antipolis to test the Interoperability of the first implementations compliant with the current EUROCAE WG67 works. This Plugtest will reinforce interoperability by enabling the identification of areas for improvements, by detecting errors and ambiguities within the current draft standards at the earliest stage, and finally speeds up the process of providing ATM VoIP products to the market in order to contribute to the implementation of the future European ATM system defined in the framework of SESAR.
