Indra has deployed what it claims to be the first controller-pilot
communications network completely based on Internet protocol (IP)
technology. The system has been implemented in Uruguay, in
collaboration with the country’s air navigation services provider (ANSP)
DINACIA, and provides full national coverage for air traffic.
In a statement, Indra said DINACIA has become the first ANSP to start using the new generation of systems based on IP technology, with controller-pilot voice communications no longer based on analogue systems.
The new digital network has enabled DINACIA to achieve its goal of having a single primary frequency, plus another secondary frequency, to serve the entire finite impulse response.
Indra said the new architecture would “guarantee the future interoperability of the systems adopted in other countries, facilitating the coordination of air operations.”
A test flight was conducted in mid-November during which communications were established between commercial flight number TAM8023 and the Carrasco air traffic control center in Montevideo, Uruguay using the digital system. This flight was used to validate the IP communications network for commercial operations.
Indra is a member of the European Organization for Civil Aviation Equipment working group that was created to define IP communications standards.
