2 01 AVIATION > ICAO NAT PBCS/2 Alphasat update

Alphasat Update Background Alphasat, also known as Inmarsat-4A F4, was launched on the 25 th July 2013 Alphasat provides performance improvements in terms of power, capacity and available spectrum in

3 Alphasat Update Background Alphasat, also known as Inmarsat-4A F4, was launched on the 25 th July 2013 Alphasat provides performance improvements in terms of power, capacity and available spectrum in the I4-EMEA region Inmarsat successfully transitioned the EMEA (I4F2) Classic Aero and SwiftBroadband services to Alphasat on 24 th March 2015 (replacing I4F2 at the same orbital slot) 3 Inmarsat Global Limited 2015 ICAO NAT PBCS/ June 2015

SwiftBroadband (SB) Safety New development that entered flight trials in

backward compatible with Classic Aero Provides cockpit communications 2

message delivery times Prioritised IP data supporting new applications:

Recorder data download Enhanced aircraft position reporting and tracking

additional to ADS-C & waypoint reporting Position reporting rate is highly

6 SwiftBroadband (SB) Safety New development that entered flight trials in 2014, that Will satisfy the demand for greater cockpit bandwidth Be backward compatible with Classic Aero Provides cockpit communications 2 Channels of Cockpit Voice ACARS Data, supporting FANS 1/A Reduced ACARS message delivery times Prioritised IP data supporting new applications: Electronic Flight Bag New Operational IP-based applications Flight Data Recorder data download Enhanced aircraft position reporting and tracking Built-in: i.e. additional to ADS-C & waypoint reporting Position reporting rate is highly configurable Low cost + lightweight terminals In-built aircraft position reporting and flight tracking 6 Inmarsat Global Limited 2015 ICAO NAT PBCS/ June 2015

9 SB Safety FANS Approvals Process The FANS Over SwiftBroadband Safety (FOSS) project initiated at FAA PARC CWG will monitor SB Safety service performance against the ICAO GOLD Specifically it will examine Service availability CPDLC message latency performance against the GOLD RCP240 performance criteria ADS-C message latency performance against the GOLD RSP180 performance criteria If the required service performance is deemed to be met by the PARC then the PARC CWG chair is expected to recommend that the service can be used for routine FANS operations, including reduced separations 9 Inmarsat Global Limited 2015 ICAO NAT PBCS/ June 2015
