Deployment Scenario Title

CNS rationalisation

Deployment Scenario Description The CNS services evolution deployment scenario includes the following:
Integrated CNS and spectrum addresses CNS cross-domain consistency in terms of robustness, spectrum use and interoperability, including civil-military aspects, through the provision of a global view of future CNS services, as well as the definition of the future integrated CNS architecture and the CNS spectrum strategy.
FCI services address the provision of digital communication services (IP-based data and digital voice). It supports future ATS and airline operations centre (AOC) services with demanding high air-ground and air-air communication capacity and high performance. It will allow the real-time sharing of 4D trajectories and timely access to ATM data and information services and will enable network-centric SWIM architectures. It manages, in a secure way, different subnetworks. It also integrates the services provided by open networks needed for hyper-connected ATM.
The FCI terrestrial datalink and A-PNT enabler, L-DACS (L-Band Digital Aeronautical Communication System), constitutes the future terrestrial air-ground and air-air datalink solution to support increasing ATM performance requirements. The development and standardisation of L-DACS technology will continue. The system will address both avionics and ground implementation.
Future satellite communications datalink class A performance will enable more ATM concepts and services to emerge. It aims to provide global interoperability based on an international communications standard that ensures that aircraft equipped with a standard terminal will be able to communicate anywhere using compatible satellite systems. In addition, it is expected to ensure lower costs for aircraft equipage and communication services.
Dual-frequency multi-constellation (DFMC) GNSS/SBAS and GBAS address the move towards resilient and performance-based navigation in all phases of flight, taking advantage of a dual GNSS constellation (GPS and Galileo). In particular, for the approach phase, this will includes the development of GBAS approach service type F (GAST-F), based on multi-constellation multi-frequency GNSS. Finalisation of the development of GAST-F CAT II/III (these are ICAO categories of precision approach and landing) and DFMC SBAS is expected to maximise the benefits of satellite-based technology for achieving approach in low-visibility conditions down to CAT II/III minima for GBAS and lateral precision with vertical guidance down to 200 ft for SBAS (LPV 200).
In the long term, the aim is to develop A-PNT systems capable of providing better performance in comparison with the short-term solution (based on DME-DME) and supporting PBN / required navigation performance (RNP) operations using alternative technologies in the event of a GNSS degradation or outage.
