- Application of PBCS principles and determination of capability
2020 for Initial Standards / Guidance,
Later editions to follow / New Job Card/WG-T
Support on PBCS by OPDLWG / 4 / Item 6
- Update of the SATCOM SARPs Manuals and standardisation of the future SATCOM systems (taking into account the performance requirements derived under WP Item 10):
- progress the update of the SATCOM SARPS to include in a more stringent performance requirements.
- Application of PBCS principles and validation and verification of capability
- oversee the development of new parts of the ICAO SATCOM Manual to capture the new systems (INMARSAT Precursor and Iridium Next), and
- coordinate as required with the EUROCAE and RTCA SATCOM activities.
- Transition aspects through various candidate systems/services, ie: IRIS Pre-Cursor service, IRIDIUM NEXT system (2nd deliverable)
Technical Aspects to be handled by a sub-group of WG-T.
Other aspects to be performed in coordination with the OPDLWG / 5 / Item 7
- Definition/standardisation of the multilink concept in support of the operational requirements in various airspaces. Taking into account the ground and airborne architectures and network infrastructure interoperability aspects of the communication systems.
Starting from SESAR relevant output expected by early 2016 / New Job Card when task better defined.
DLIWG to allocated task to sub-group / 6 / Item 10
Joint OPDLWG and DCIWG Tasks
- Jointly with OPDLWG (and with support from the ATMRP,RPASP IMP, FSMP and other Panelsand industry groups as needed), development of a roadmap for the future data link communications in support of the GANP update (including information on dealing with mixed environment (OSI, IPS and non-equipped a/c) and the steps to be taken until full deployment of future communication systems (using all media).This shall include:
2) rationalization of the COM infrastructure,
3) monitor and report on the implementation status of COM systems
4)development of guidelines/recommendations for decommissioning of obsolete/redundant COM systems, / On-going with first edition by
2017 / New Job-Card/CP-wide / 7 / Item 14
- In coordination with the AVSEC Panel and others as needed), establishment of technical provisions to meet security requirements for the COM aspects (considering the operational requirements). Initially this will involve the development of a security technical framework, raising questions on security policy and operational issues for consideration by other panels, ie; AVSEC, RPASP, IMP.
2020 for Standards / Guidance / Job-Card CP007.001
WG/I,S, T / 8 / Item 8
- In the light of technological developments, the DLIWG and OPDLWG, (and with support from the ATMRP and IM Panels in ICAO and industry groups as needed), shall work together on the consideration of the operational aspects and development of operational material (performance based requirements) for future services This shall include:
B)If necessary, update of GOLD with operational services and procedures beyond ATN B1 in alignment with Job Card CP-OPDLWG.001.01. / 2020 / CP-OPDLWG.001.01
CP-OPDLWG.002.01
Plus potential amendments to existing job cards or new job cards / 10 / Item 11
Linked to items 5 and 14
Development of a concept of operations and a transition roadmapfor future voice communications (when the role of datalink increases significantly and could potentially become the primary means of communication) for different airspaces, considering:
1) migration aspects (from voice primary to data primary),
2) definition of functional and performance requirements for future voice com systems including consideration of required performance for digital voice for the a/g side, and
3) rationalisation of spectrum requirements.
4) Update of PBCS Manual and Gold as required.
- Deliverable – Document for publication. This document will be reviewed regularly.
Coordination with other Panels
- Coordinate with and provide support to the Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems Panel (RPASP) in relation to: 1) command/control links, 2) ATC-Pilot Communicationand 3) other non-payload communications.
- Coordinate with and provide support to other panels about COM aspects (i.e. IPS) and systems to be considered as enablers for other functions i.e. support for ADS-B (SP), support for navigation capabilities (NP) and spectrum management (FSMP)
- This includes providing support to ICAO Regions, including workshops on CNS developments.
