Introduction

Airborne Internet aims at providing communication link between aircraft - ground, ground - ground and aircraft – aircraft.

This is one of the major achievements in the aviation history by NASA. It is undertaking the development of the Small Aircraft Transportation System (SATS). .

The network is intended for use in aviation Communications, navigation, and surveillance (CNS) and would also be useful to businesses, private Internet users, and government agencies, especially the military.

3

What is Airborne Internet

It is an internet broadband which Provide high-speed wireless internet connection by placing aircraft in fixed path over hundreds of cities

Airborne Internet is a private, secure and reliable peer-to-peer aircraft communications network that uses the same technology as the commercial Internet.

It is convenient and has several uses like flight planning, security planning and route reservations, travel arrangements. 4

What is Airborne Internet

(AI) deliver high-speed internet :

Around 25Mb/s for business users

Around 5 Mb/s for home users

(AI) uses a network called High Altitude Long Operation (HALO).

This network is used by U.S. army.

5

Why Airborne Internet

There are mainly 2 reasons for developing the AI. They are:

1. SATS (Small Aircraft Transportation System)

2. Need For Higher Bandwidth.

SATS

Controls Traffic in Air.

Provides Internet for people in the transit.

High Bandwidth

Around 1 – 5 Mbps for Home Users.

Around 5 – 25 Mbps for Business Users.

Around 25 – 155 Mbps for Dedicated links 6

Principles To establish a robust, reliable, and available

digital data channel to aircraft.

Mobile Routing is an ability of a network user to move from one network to another without loosing connectivity.

It uses the TCP/IP protocol.

It uses the network called HALO (High Altitude Long Operation).

7

Applications

The security applications including flight tracking/deviation monitoring, in-flight video monitoring, cockpit voice/video recording.

This airborne internet is an approach to provide a general purpose, multi application data channel to aviation.

A primary application for A.I. is to track aircraft for the air traffic control system.

8

Implementation Systems

Three companies are planning to provide Airborne Internet by placing aircrafts in fixed patterns over hundreds of cities.

Angel Technologies – Proteus Plane.

Aerovironment With NASA - Helios aircraft.

Sky Station International - Blimps.

9

The Proteus airplane

The Proteus was developed by NASA It is designed with long wings and low wing loading It can fly in high-altitude

18-foot dish underneath the plane is responsible for reflecting high-speed data signals from a ground station to users.

10

How AI Work

The aircraft work as hub HALO work as wireless network with star topology (ISP) Internet Service Provider send the data

through a gateway to the hub in the aircraft 11

How AI Work

12

To provide the service for 24 hours, three aircraft will be used. Each one for 8 hours.

How AI Work

This service can cover cities area around 75 mile in diameter

The aircraft will fly at altitude 51,000 ft. (15,500 m)

It use high-frequency between 28-38 GHz.

13

Difference between Satellite and AI

AI service Satellite

Time delay Small delay Big delay

Frequency 28-38 GHz 4-6 GHz9-13 GHz

Power Low Power High Power

Cost Low Cost High Cost

14

Difference between Satellite and AI

AI does not need frequency bands license

Can service hundred-thousand of broadband subscribers

Single link delays range from ~60 m sec under the airplane to ~200 m sec at the edge of the signal

15

Advantages of Airborne Internet over Existing Systems

16

Advantages

Increase productivity and economic growth

Increase security, reliability, and scalability

Lower cost

It helps to achieve a broader bandwidth.

Enhanced user connectivity globally

Increase flexibility

17

Conclusion The airborne internet provide high-speed

internet.

AI has many advantage than satellite communication.

Provides passengers to access the internet at very high altitudes(in Transit).

This new service will be useful for who live in small village(Remote Places).
