Future Roadmap






Mitigation of risks on FANS interoperability


• FANS interoperability risks are managed by Airbus through

• Full compliance of the Airbus FANS products to applicable standards

• Delivery of mature certified AIRBUS FANS products

• Thoroughly verified at Airbus test lab, during Airbus flight tests, in interoperation

with many ANSPs

• FANS A (then A+) first certified in year 2000 on A330/A340 , has benefited from a

long exposure time, on a large and worldwide population of Airbus customers

Aircraft

• In Service Problems have been (and continue to be) monitored, analysed, and

fixed by new product releases for defects found on Airbus airborne systems

implementation

• Proactive interoperability tests campaigns with many ground ATC Centers are

performed by Airbus in the scope of the certification of any new product

release

• Airbus positively answers to all requests from ground ATC Centers, to perform

interoperability tests with Airbus FANS products (see next slide)

• Airbus FANS products particularities are documented in ICAO GOLD


How to organize interoperability tests with Airbus ?

• Send an e-mail to contact person:

[email protected]

• Interoperability tests can cover:

• A623, CPDLC, and ADS-C applications

• With A/G traffic exchanged through

ARINC or SITA

• An Interoperability tests campaign

generally implies:

• Some teleconferences to agree on tests

dates, and tests scope

• Exchange of tests procedures documents

through e-mail

• Tests execution session (generally over a

half day)

• A teleconference for debriefing on the

tests results


mailto:[email protected]


AIRBUS advices to FANS ground implementation initiatives

• Ground implementations must comply to the applicable standards

• Use the ICAO GOLD to avoid possible misinterpretations of the applicable

standards

• Use the ICAO GOLD to get knowledge of recommended implementations or

procedures, which take consideration of particular Airborne implementation

specificities or limitations

• Setup interoperability tests campaigns with AIRBUS laboratory (see

previous slide)

• Setup large scale trials with multiple partner Airlines for pre-operational

validation of the datalink services

• Use CRA database (www.ispacg-cra.com) to report abnormal events and

trigger analysis by AIRBUS FANS experts

• Participate to FIT meetings, to share experiences with other organisations

and get awareness on reported issues and resolution status
