: These links are designed to work within the ATN/IPS (Internet Protocol Suite) framework, allowing legacy systems to communicate with newer IP-based infrastructures.
The generally refers to the transition toward updated messaging protocols and interoperability standards, such as those integrated with the Aeronautical Telecommunication Network (ATN) and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Doc 9896. Core Functions of AIDC
: More efficient transitions allow for higher aircraft density in managed airspaces. aidc-ns-plus-2010-link
(ATS Interfacility Data Communications) NS-PLUS is a data-link standard used in air traffic control for the automated exchange of flight information between ATC units.
: Decreases the need for manual voice communication during handoffs. : These links are designed to work within
: Facilitating electronic requests and approvals for flight level changes or boundary crossings. Technical Components of the "2010-Link" Era
: Follows ICAO 2012 Flight Plan updates and ATS Interfacility Data Communications messages to maintain global compatibility. Operational Impact The implementation of these links focuses on: Technical Components of the "2010-Link" Era : Follows
: Handing off control of an aircraft between sectors or adjacent Flight Information Regions (FIRs).
