Description
ACARS (pronounced AY-CARS) is a digital data link system for the transmission of
messages between aircraft and ground stations, which has been in use since 1978.
At first it relied exclusively on VHF channels but more recently, alternative means
Material para Propósitos de Instrucción solamente

of data transmission have been added which have greatly enhanced its
geographical coverage. There has also been a rapid trend towards the integration of
aircraft systems with the ACARS link. Both have led to rapid growth in its use as an
operational communications tool.
Modern ACARS equipment now includes the facility for automatic as well as
manual initiation of messaging. ARINC guidelines have been defined for all the
various avionic components of ACARS.

AOC and AAC messages (ACARS) Departamento de Aeronáutica
UDB DEPARTAMENTO DE

AOC and AAC messages are used for communications between an aircraft and its
AERONÁUTICA

base(the Airline). These messages may be of standard form or as defined by users,


but all must then meet at least the guidelines of ARINC Standard 618. Any message
content is possible including such examples as:
•upload to the aircraft of final load and trim sheets;
•upload of weather or NOTAM information;
Material para Propósitos de Instrucción solamente

•download from the aircraft of status, position, eta, and any diversion;
•download of spot weather observations from aircraft sensors:
•download of technical performance data including automatically triggered
exceedance or abnormal aircraft system status information, and
•'housekeeping' information such as catering uplift requirements, special passenger
advice and ETA.
Free Text messaging is also possible.

CPDLC

CPDLC Departamento de Aeronáutica
UDB DEPARTAMENTO DE

CPDLC is the primary means of communication in oceanic airspace. Other countries,


AERONÁUTICA

including those in Europe, have been early adopters of the technology for routine
communications to reduce congestion on VHF frequencies. The FAA launched a limited test
in Memphis with plans to expand it later this year to Newark and Atlanta. The agency says it
will begin deploying Data Comm, as the program has been renamed, in all control towers in
2016 and in all high-altitude control centers in 2019.

Definition
Controller Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) is a means of communication
between controller and pilot, using data link for ATC communications. (ICAO Doc
4444: PANS-ATM)
Facultad de Aeronáutica
CPDLC Departamento de Aeronáutica
UDB DEPARTAMENTO DE

Description
CPDLC is a two-way data-link system by which controllers can transmit
AERONÁUTICA

non urgent 'strategic messages to an aircraft as an alternative to voice


communications. The message is displayed on a flight deck visual display.
The CPDLC application provides air-ground data communication for the
ATC service.
The controllers are provided with the capability to issue ATC clearances
Material para Propósitos de Instrucción solamente

(level assignments, lateral deviations/vectoring, speed assignments, etc),


radio frequency assignments, and various requests for information.
The pilots are provided with the capability to respond to messages, to
request/receive clearances and information, and to report information.
A “free text” capability is also provided to exchange information not
conforming to defined formats.
The CPDLC is being globally implemented and currently is in different
implementation stages. The global communication procedures are detailed
in the ICAO Provisions: Annex 10 Volume III Part 1 Chapter 3. The CPDLC
message set is contained in ICAO Doc 4444: PANS-ATM, Annex 5.

Data Link Services


UDB DEPARTAMENTO DE

The following data link services are available:


•Data Link Initiation Capability (DLIC) – this service provides the necessary
AERONÁUTICA

information to make data link communications possible between an ATSU and


aircraft. The DLIC service is executed prior to the first use of any other data link
application.
•ATC Communications Management Service (ACM) – this service provides
automated assistance to flight crew and controllers for the transfer of ATC
Material para Propósitos de Instrucción solamente

communications (voice and CPDLC).


•ATC Clearances Service (ACL) – this service allows flight crews and controllers to
conduct operational exchanges – flight crews can send requests and reports and
controllers can issue clearances, instructions and notifications.
•ATC Microphone Check Service (AMC) – this service allows controllers to send an
instruction to all CPDLC capable aircraft on a given frequency (at the same time)
to verify that their voice communication equipment is not blocking a given voice
channel.
•Departure Clearance (DCL) - this service provides automated assistance for
requesting and delivering departure clearances to aircraft.
•Downstream Clearance Service (DSC) - this service is provided for flight crews

Expected Benefits of CPDLC


•Less communication on the ATC frequency;
AERONÁUTICA

•Increased sector capacities;


•More pilot requests can be dealt with simultaneously;
•Reduced probability of miscommunication (e.g. due call sign confusion);
•Safer frequency changes, hence fewer loss of communication events.

Main Principles of CPDLC Exchange


The following underlying principles are applicable to the use of CPDLC:
AERONÁUTICA

•Voice and data link shall co-exist as a means of ATS communication.


Implementation of CPDLC is intended as a supplementary means of communication
to the use of voice communication.
•CPDLC shall only be used in the context of non-time-critical communications.
Time-criticality is mainly determined by the following factors: ATC traffic situation,
Material para Propósitos de Instrucción solamente

end-to-end performance (systems and flight crew/controller response time) and


recovery time. Users should be aware that while a voice response is generally
expected in a few seconds the latency of CPDLC is usually much longer (up to
several minutes).
•The decision to use either voice or CPDLC shall be at the discretion of the
controller and/or pilot involved.
•The provisions regarding the use of CPDLC shall respect the following standard as
provided in ICAO Annex 11, Chapter 3, par. 3.5.1: “A controlled flight shall be under the
control of only one air traffic control unit at any given time”.

The communication system includes:


- ATA23_1: VHF and HF systems, as well as the public address system
AERONÁUTICA

and SELCAL (Selective Calling System)


- ATA23_2: CMF / AFIS optional system, including weather uplink,
- ATA23_3: SATCOM (Satellite Communication) optional system.

Transponder (ATC) system is addressed in ATA 34.

The radio communication system allows VHF and HF communications thanks to:
- Two VHF systems, which provide: Conventional voice mode communication.
- Two HF systems, which provide: Long-range voice communication.
AERONÁUTICA

The VHF datalinks capabilities are used respectively by the AFIS (refer to ATA23_2).

VHF and HF communications are available from the three cockpit positions.
Material para Propósitos de Instrucción solamente

The VHF and HF systems are compatible of SELCAL, to alert the crew if a call is received while the
frequency is not monitored.

Optional equipment include:


- A third VHF system, which provides: Conventional voice mode communication, Data communication,
- A Public Address system which is an internal communication system from the cockpit to the
passenger cabin.

- On the GP (Guidance Panel),
- On the CCD (Cursor Control Device),
Material para Propósitos de Instrucción solamente

A backup tuning of the VHF1 (VHF 2) is available using the LH MKB (respectively RH MKB), via a
dedicated bus (ARINC-429) between MKB and VIDL-G module passing through NIM module.

This backup tuning would be used in case of failure of:
