2020-06-19
CURRENT
ARINC686
ARINC Report 686 represents the consensus of industry to prepare a roadmap migration from IPv4 to IPv6. This document describes airline objectives (air and ground side when possible) towards the development and introduction of IPv6. There are three distinct elements considered: 1) the applications for addressing aspects 2) the communication network(s) over which the applications are running for the IP protocol level itself and associated features, and 3) the physical link(s) the network(s) interface.

TIMELY RECOVERY OF FLIGHT DATA (TRFD)

2021-08-06
CURRENT
ARINC681
The difficulty in locating crash sites has prompted international efforts for alternatives to quickly recover flight data. This document describes the technical requirements and architectural options for the Timely Recovery of Flight Data (TRFD) in commercial aircraft. ICAO and individual Civil Aviation Authorities (CAAs) levy these requirements. The ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) and CAA regulations cover both aircraft-level and on-ground systems. This report also documents additional system-level requirements derived from the evaluation of ICAO, CAA, and relevant industry documents and potential TRFD system architectures. It describes two TRFD architectures in the context of a common architectural framework and identifies requirements. This report also discusses implementation recommendations from an airplane-level perspective.
