25、. 3 Operational characteristics The AMS is a mobile service between aeronautical stations and aircraft stations, or between two aircraft stations. Manned and unmanned platforms equipped with AMS data links (ADL) can operate worldwide and anywhere within a country whose administration has authorized

26、such use. An ADL may exist between an airborne data terminal (ADT), which is an aircraft station, and a ground data terminal (GDT), which is an aeronautical station, or between two ADTs. ADLs are bi-directional by design and may operate in either a narrow-band or wide-band mode in one or both direct

27、ions. A network consisting of multiple ADLs between ADTs and/or GDTs is possible. A GDT may be at a fixed location or transportable. 4 Rec. ITU-R M.2115-0 The link distance for the ADL is generally limited by the radio line of sight (RLOS) horizon, which is a function of the terrain within the vicin

28、ity of the GDT and the altitude of the ADT. The altitude of airborne platforms equipped with these ADLs can be up to 20 km. The link distance can vary from a few kilometres to approaching RLOS horizon distance. For an air-to-ground or ground-to-air link, the link distance may be approximately 450 km

29、. The link between two ADTs operates in similar manner as the link between a GDT and an ADT with the exception that the link distance is a function of the altitude of the two ADTs. In the case of a direct air-to-air link, this link distance may be up to 900 km. Other factors to consider, such as atm

30、ospheric losses (rain attenuation, gases, etc.) and clutter losses, as described in the relevant ITU-R P-Series Recommendations, could reduce the maximum distance of the link between two ADTs, or negatively impact the performance of the ADL at the maximum distance. Depending on the environmental con

31、ditions and locations of the aircraft, the crosslink distance might be shorter than 900 km. The temporal duration of the link can span the entire flight duration. The duration during which an ADL is active is only limited by the flight time of the ADT. 4 Protection criteria The performance of the co

32、mmunication link is very often noise limited. An increase in receiver effective noise of 1 dB could be manifested in several ways, e.g. a decrease in the available fade margin, a loss in the effective link distance to maintain an acceptable bit error rate, or receiver desensitization. Under free-spa

33、ce propagation, an increase of 1 dB in noise level translates into an approximately 10% degradation of communication range. The degradation could be higher in more noisy environments. A 1 dB increase in receiver effective noise corresponds to Interference+Noise to Noise ratio, (I + N)/N, of 1.26, or

34、 Interference-to-Noise ratio, I/N, of about 6 dB. This represents the required protection criterion for the AMS systems from interference due to another radiocommunication service. If multiple potential interference sources are present, protection of the AMS systems requires that this criterion is not exceeded due to the aggregate interference from the multiple sources.
