  1. B.Rekencentra N.V. ACARS Ground Solution by

  2. Objective • Present new ACARS ground solution • Describe system components • Demonstrate Ar-Com strengths

  3. Customer Needs • Ease of use • Configurable • Modern open architecture • Adapt to changing needs • In house maintenance • Secure use

  4. System Overview

  5. System components • Administration program (Client server module) • Configuration data dictionary • Configuration aircraft • Configuration messages and their interpretation • Configuration of custom routing • Configuration of uplink messages

  6. System components • ANL (Background processing) • Separate modules per network • Receives messages from network • Transmits messages to network • Following network gateways are in place • SITA via SITATEX • SITA via MQ series • Email • MQ series • Wingspeedcorp via email • Wingspeedcorp via MQ series • Airinc: in development

  7. System components • APS (Background processing) • Message recognition • Message interpretation • Perform custom routingFor example: • Receive OOOI, transform to MVA, forward to Operations control system • Receive loadsheet from W&B, uplink to aircraft • Receive engine report, transform and transmit to engine performance system • Receive message from aircraft and transmit to other aircraft

  8. System components • Ar-Com Online (browser enabled) • Show inbound message details • Alert users about critical messages • Uplink to aircraft • FSD : Flight Situation Display (browser enabled) • Show flight on a geographical map • Show fuel & flight level status • Show downlink messages • Transmit uplink messages

  9. Ease of use • Web browser interface • On line help available (in development) • User interface configurable • Windows based administration tool • No installation on clients • Single server solution possible

  10. Open architecture • Data stored in ODBC supported relational database (e.g.Oracle) • 3rd party processing possibility (Plug-in) via routing • Component based

  11. In house maintenance • Relational database • Modify recognition and interpretation of existing messages • Self-support for new messages • Define /Change uplinks Fully configurable through ADM2000

  12. ADM2000 • Windows based Administration tool • Easy configuration of Ar-Com • User groups / security • Aircraft • Messages • Interpretation • Uplinks • Routing • Network links • …

  13. Secure access Group based security providing • Controlled aircraft access • Controlled uplink possibility • Controlled user access • Controlled message type access

  14. Sample Physical model Single Server running • Internet Information Server • Oracle database version 10 • APS • ANL Incoming - ANLDirIn • ANL Outgoing - SitaFileOut (ANLs use Sitatex file gateway)

  15. Benefits • Self-support • Easy maintenance • Extensible • Secure storage of data

  16. Some Users • TUI Airline Group : 200 Aircraft • Tuifly • Thomson • Jetairfly • Arkefly • Neosair • Jet4you • DHL aviation: 50 aircraft • TNT airways: 40 aircraft

  17. Sample downlink Turn this… =HEADERRCV,2001/03/07 04:15=PRIORITYQU=DESTINATION TYPE BSTX,*******=ORIGINQXSXMXS=MSGID070415=SMIDFD=TEXTFI ******/AN *******DT QXS ***1 070415 D95A- TKO101******070304150058001601643275693790440000934093509650965771782103125041790420100750075626004905105700704200500300701301630225731916803290293177063606441100000011U1541N5228E009473993404104971N0123

  18. Into data

  19. Into an alternate form

  20. Sample uplink Instead of remembering cryptic codes… QU QXSXMXS .XXXXXXX M3L /AN XXXXXXX 0001211203

  21. Sample uplink Just fill in the blanks…

  22. FSD • Shows: • Geographical map • Flexible zoom and pan • Planned route with waypoints (Flightplan) • Actual Route • Actual position of A/C • Airports

  23. FSD • Graph shows: • Planned fuel • Actual fuel • Planned flight level • Actual flight level

  24. FSD • Uplink: • Select message type • Input other values • Apply “Uplink” button

  25. FSD • Airport information: • METAR • Short Term Forecast • Long Term Forecast • Temperture • NOTAM • AIRMET • SIGMET  Information retrieved from flight planning system

  26. FSD • Flight Plan information: • Information used to • Plot planned route • Plot fuel graph • Plot Flight Level graph  Information retrieved from flight planning system

  27. FSD • Messages: • Downlink & Uplink per A/C • Message details • Info • Text • Alternate text • Data elements • Routing results • Custom flags

  28. FSD • Critical Messages: • User is alerted • Message details as normal messages

  29. FSD

  30. FSD • Configurable FSD • Every window can be viewed or not • Window’s size and location is stored • Window’s contents are synchronized

  31. On-line Demo A demo version is reachable on our test server. Please browse to one of the following addresses: • Classic Ar-Com: http://maya.rekencentra.be/Arcom • FSD: http://maya.rekencentra.be/ArComFsdSL Please request username and password to use the demo
