The author addresses the design and development of a satellite based network that is to provide critical safety-of-life communications services to the air transport industry. The system uses a fully integrated digital transmission system for cockpit and passenger voice and data. The voice-transmission system provides for multiple channels of near-toll-quality communications. Applications of this system are discussed, and attentions is given to the number and locations of satellites, network capacity, avionics, the ground segment, and network interoperability. The author concludes with a description of the near-term-service development plans for aviation satellite services.
