Performance verification of VoIP for terrestrial communications and IP surveillance data for air traffic management

Use of deterministic circuits by aeronautical telecommunications networks → communications infrastructure obsolescence, high costs; • Advent of IP (Internet Protocol) → flexibility and lower costs; • EUROCAE standards for Radio and Telephony; • EUROCONTROL requirements for Surveillance Data Distribution (SDD); • IP network stochastical behavior: variances in QoS parameters (latency, jitter and packet loss); • Radio, Telephony and SDD performance levels must be verified!
