VHF air-ground digital Link (VDL) Mode 4 radio equipment - Technical characteristics and methods of measurement for ground-based equipment - Part 3: Additional broadband aspects

The present document applies to the following radio equipment types:
-Very High Frequency (VHF) Digital Link (VDL) Mode 4 ground-based radio transmitters and receivers for air-ground communications operating in the VHF band, using Gaussian-filtered Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) Modulation with 25 kHz channel spacing and capable of tuning to any of the 25 kHz channels from 118,000 MHz to 136,975 MHz as defined in ICAO VHF Digital Link (VDL) Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) [i.4].
The present document provides part 3 of the technical specifications.   
The present document is designed to ensure that equipment certified to it will be compatible with the relevant ICAO VHF Digital Link (VDL) Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) [i.4] and VDL Mode 4 Technical Manual (TM) [i.1].
Manufacturers should note that in future the tuning range for the ground transceivers may also cover any 25 kHz channel from 108,000 MHz to 117,975 MHz.
The scope of the present document is limited to ground stations. The equivalent specification for airborne stations is EN 302 842 [6], [7], [8] and [9].
A description of the scope of the VDL Mode 4 system is provided in EN 301 842-2 [3], clause 1.
EN 301 842-1 [2] deals with tests of the physical layer. EN 301 842-2 [3] deals with tests of the link layer sufficient to support broadcast functionality including requirements and tests sufficient to recognize and respond to transmissions associated with point-to-point communication. The present document provides technical specifications for a VDL Mode 4 ground-based transceiver supporting a full Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) capability and, optionally, the additional functionality of either, or a combination of, the following services:
-Traffic Information Service-Broadcast (TIS-B);
-Flight Information Service-Broadcast (FIS-B);
-GNSS Augmentation Service-Broadcast (GNS-B).
The TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B functionality in the ground-based equipment is expected to be provided by a TIS-B, FIS B or GNS-B processor, which could be contained within the VDL Mode 4 transceiver, but could also be housed in a separate physical unit. Therefore to support TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B, the minimum functionality demanded of a basic VDL Mode 4 ground-based transceiver unit (i.e. one that does not have a TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B processor housed within it) is to receive, from the TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B processor, all messages to be transmitted, and to transmit them. In the case of FIS-B there is an additional requirement to receive report request messages (from other VDL4 stations) and to pass those messages to the FIS-B processor.
It should be noted that the specifications for TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B in the present document represent a first step towards defining these applications, based on the work carried out as part of the NUP and MEDUP Programmes, and changes to the specifications for these services may therefore occur in the future.
The present document is organized as follows:
-clause 2 provides references to relevant documents;
-clause 3 provides general definitions, abbreviations and symbols used;
-clause 4 describes the VDL Mode 4 ground station functionality to support ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS B;
-clause 5 provides performance specifications for the VDL Mode 4 ground station supporting ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B Services;
-clause 6 provides general design requirements;
-clause 7 provides protocol tests which emphasis the ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B functions of the system;
-annex A provides a detailed cross-reference to the relevant requirements contained in [i.1];

Radijska oprema za VHF digitalne povezave zrak-tla, 4. način - Tehnične karakteristike in merilne metode za talno opremo - 3. del: Dodatni vidiki v zvezi z radiodifuzijo

Ta dokument velja za naslednje vrste radijske opreme:
- zelo visokofrekvenčna (VHF) digitalna povezava (VDL), 4. način, talnih radijskih oddajnikov in prejemnikov za komunikacije zrak-tla, ki deluje v pasu VHF z uporabo modulacije frekvenčnega premičnega kodiranja prek filtra Gaussian (GFSK) z razmikom 25 kHz med kanali, in zmožna uravnavati na katerem koli izmed kanalov 25 kHz od 118.000 MHz do 136.975 MHz, kot je opredeljeno v standardih in priporočenih praksah (SARPs) [i.4] IACO za digitalne povezave (VDL).
Ta dokument zagotavlja 3. del tehničnih specifikacij.
Ta dokument zagotavlja, da bo oprema, ki jo certificira, združljiva z ustreznimi standardi in priporočenimi praksami (SARPs) [i.4] ICAO za digitalne povezave VHF (VDL) ter tehničnim priročnikom (TM) [i.1] za VDL, 4. način.
Proizvajalci morajo biti pozorni, da razpon uravnavanja za talne prejemnike-oddajnike lahko v prihodnje zajema tudi kateri koli kanal 25 kHz od 108.000 MHz do 117.975 MHz.
Področje uporabe tega dokumenta je omejeno na talne postaje. Ustrezna specifikacija za letalske postaje je v EN 302 842 [6], [7], [8] in [9].
Opis področja uporabe sistemov VDL, 4. način, je naveden v EN 301 842-2 [3], točki 1.
EN 301 842-1 [2] obravnava preskuse fizične plasti. EN 301 842-2 [3] obravnava preskuse plasti povezave, zadostne za podporo oddajni funkcionalnosti, vključno z zahtevami in preskusi, zadostnimi za prepoznavo in odgovor na oddajanja, povezana s komunikacijo točka-točka. Ta dokument podaja tehnične specifikacije za talne oddajnike in sprejemnike VDL, 4. način, ki podpirajo zmožnosti popolnega samodejnega odvisnega nadzora oddajanja (ADS-B), in opcijsko, dodatne funkcionalnosti ali kombinacijo naslednjih storitev:
- storitev prometnih informacij - oddajanje (TIS-B);
- storitev informacij o letih - oddajanje (FIS-B);
- GNSS razširjene storitve informacij - oddajanje (GNS-B).
Za funkcionalnost v talni opremi TIS-B, FIS-B ali GNS-B se pričakuje, da jo zagotavljajo procesorji TIS-B, FIS-B ali GNS-B, ki so lahko vgrajeni v oddajnik in sprejemnik VDL, 4. način, vendar so prav tako lahko vgrajeni v ločeni fizični enoti. Zato je za podporo TIS-B, FIS-B ali GNS-B minimalna zahtevana funkcionalnost osnovnih talnih sprejemnih in oddajnih enot VDL, 4. način (tj. če procesor TIS-B, FIS-B ali GNS-B ni vgrajen) sprejeti vsa sporočila procesorjev za oddajanje TIS-B, FIS-B ali GNS-B in jih oddajati. Pri FIS-B je dodatna zahteva sprejemanje sporočil za poročanje zahtev (od drugih postaj VDL4) in predajanje teh sporočil procesorju FIS-B.
Upoštevati pa je treba, da specifikacije za TIS-B, FIS-B in GNS-B v tem dokumentu predstavljajo prvi korak k določanju teh uporab, temelječih na delu, izpeljanem kot del programov NUP in MEDUP, zato lahko pride do sprememb specifikacij za te storitve v prihodnosti.
Ta dokument je urejen:
- točka 2, ki se sklicuje na ustrezne dokumente;
- točka 3, ki podaja uporabljene splošne definicije, okrajšave in simbole;
- točka 4 opisuje funkcionalnosti talne postaje VDL, 4. način, za podporo ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B in GNS-B;
- točka 5 podaja delovne specifikacije talne postaje VDL, 4. način, za podporo ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B in GNS-B storitev;
- točka 6, ki podaja splošne zahteve za načrtovanje;
- točka 7 podaja preskuse protokola, ki poudarjajo funkcije sistema ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B in GNS-B;
- dodatek A, ki podaja podrobno sklicevanje na ustrezne zahteve, zajete v [i.1];
- dodatek B, ki podaja bibliografijo;
- zgodovino dokumenta.
Bodite pozorni na to, da lahko sistem podpira zelo širok razpon funkcij. Podajanje nekaterih preskusov za vse vidike funkcionalnosti ni praktično. Namen uporabljenega pristopa je podati podrobne preskuse za jedrno funkcionalnost za podporo ADS-S, FIS-B, TIS-B in GNS-B, osredotočenega na sistemske zahteve, ki lahko, če se narobe izvajajo, povzročijo poslabšanje storitev, ki jih ponujajo postaje VDL, 4. način.

ETSI ETSI EN 301 842-3 V1.3.1 (2011-09) 6 Introduction The present document is part of a set of deliverables developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the R&TTE Directive [i.5]. The modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.7]. The present document states the technical specifications for Very High Frequency (VHF) Digital Link (VDL) Mode 4 ground-based radio transmitters, transceivers and receivers for air-ground communications operating in the VHF band, using Gaussian-filtered Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) Modulation with 25 kHz channel spacing and capable of tuning to any of the 25 kHz channels from 118,000 MHz to 136,975 MHz as defined in ICAO VHF Digital Link (VDL) Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) [i.4]. The present document considers the additional broadcast functionality required to support ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B, and GNS-B services. The present document may be used to produce tests for the assessment of the performance of the equipment. The performance of the equipment submitted for type testing should be representative of the performance of the corresponding production model. The present document has been written on the assumption that: • the type test measurements will be performed only once, in an accredited test laboratory and the measurements accepted by the various authorities in order to grant type approval; • if equipment available on the market is required to be checked it will be tested in accordance with the methods of measurement specified in the present document or a documented alternative approved by the certifying authority; • equipment comply with EN 301 489-22 [1], EN 301 842-1 [2] and EN 301 842-2 [3].

ETSI ETSI EN 301 842-3 V1.3.1 (2011-09) 7 1 Scope The present document applies to the following radio equipment types: • Very High Frequency (VHF) Digital Link (VDL) Mode 4 ground-based radio transmitters and receivers for air-ground communications operating in the VHF band, using Gaussian-filtered Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) Modulation with 25 kHz channel spacing and capable of tuning to any of the 25 kHz channels from 118,000 MHz to 136,975 MHz as defined in ICAO VHF Digital Link (VDL) Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) [i.4]. The present document provides part 3 of the technical specifications. The present document is designed to ensure that equipment certified to it will be compatible with the relevant ICAO VHF Digital Link (VDL) Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) [i.4] and VDL Mode 4 Technical Manual (TM) [i.1]. Manufacturers should note that in future the tuning range for the ground transceivers may also cover any 25 kHz channel from 108,000 MHz to 117,975 MHz. The scope of the present document is limited to ground stations. The equivalent specification for airborne stations is EN 302 842 [6], [7], [8] and [9]. A description of the scope of the VDL Mode 4 system is provided in EN 301 842-2 [3], clause 1. EN 301 842-1 [2] deals with tests of the physical layer. EN 301 842-2 [3] deals with tests of the link layer sufficient to support broadcast functionality including requirements and tests sufficient to recognize and respond to transmissions associated with point-to-point communication. The present document provides technical specifications for a VDL Mode 4 ground-based transceiver supporting a full Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) capability and, optionally, the additional functionality of either, or a combination of, the following services: • Traffic Information Service-Broadcast (TIS-B); • Flight Information Service-Broadcast (FIS-B); • GNSS Augmentation Service-Broadcast (GNS-B). The TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B functionality in the ground-based equipment is expected to be provided by a TIS-B, FIS B or GNS-B processor, which could be contained within the VDL Mode 4 transceiver, but could also be housed in a separate physical unit. Therefore to support TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B, the minimum functionality demanded of a basic VDL Mode 4 ground-based transceiver unit (i.e. one that does not have a TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B processor housed within it) is to receive, from the TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B processor, all messages to be transmitted, and to transmit them. In the case of FIS-B there is an additional requirement to receive report request messages (from other VDL4 stations) and to pass those messages to the FIS-B processor. It should be noted that the specifications for TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B in the present document represent a first step towards defining these applications, based on the work carried out as part of the NUP and MEDUP Programmes, and changes to the specifications for these services may therefore occur in the future. The present document is organized as follows: • clause 2 provides references to relevant documents; • clause 3 provides general definitions, abbreviations and symbols used; • clause 4 describes the VDL Mode 4 ground station functionality to support ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS B; • clause 5 provides performance specifications for the VDL Mode 4 ground station supporting ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B Services; • clause 6 provides general design requirements; • clause 7 provides protocol tests which emphasis the ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B functions of the system; SIST EN 301 842-3 V1.3.1:2011



ETSI ETSI EN 301 842-3 V1.3.1 (2011-09) 8 • annex A provides a detailed cross-reference to the relevant requirements contained in [i.1]; • annex B provides a Bibliography; • a document history. Note that the system can support a very wide range of functions. It is not practical to provide specific tests for all aspects of functionality. The approach used is to provide detailed tests for the core functionality to support ADS-B, FIS B, TIS-B and GNS-B focusing on the system requirements which, if wrongly implemented, could cause a deterioration in the service offered by other VDL Mode 4 stations.
Mandating and Recommendation Phrases a) "Shall":
the use of the word "Shall" indicates a mandated criterion; i.e. compliance with the particular procedure or specification is mandatory and no alternative may be applied. b) "Should":
the use of the word "Should" (and phrases such as "It is recommended that.", etc.) indicates that though the procedure or criterion is regarded as the preferred option, alternative procedures, specifications or criteria may be applied, provided that the manufacturer, installer or tester can provide information or data to adequately support and justify the alternative. 2 References.
