AIRCRAFT DATA NETWORK PART 8 INTEROPERATION WITH NON-IP PROTOCOLS AND SERVICES

2010-11-12

CURRENT

ARINC664P8-1

This Specification was written to support future aeronautical applications and services beyond those using Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). The initial focus is to support air/ground applications using the Aeronautical Telecommunications Network (ATN). These include Controller-Pilot Data Link Communication (CPDLC), Flight Information System (FIS), and Context Management Application (CMA). Supplement 1 was written to allow interoperation with non-IP protocols and services and upper layer services with respect to the OSI reference model. Supplement 1 reflects ICAO Aeronautical Communication Panel recommendations.

CURRENT

ARINC644

The purpose of this standard is to provide a method for packaging aircraft software parts for distribution using contemporary media or by electronic distribution. This project intends to standardize and provide guidance for the storage of floppy based software, currently packaged in media set parts. This standard format can be then stored or distributed on a single physical media member (CD-ROM), or by electronic crate. The obsolescence of floppy disks drive an urgent need for this guidance.

FIBER OPTIC ACTIVE DEVICE SPECIFICATION

2007-11-15

CURRENT

ARINC804-1

This document provides information on active devices used for avionics fiber optic applications. The main body of the document begins with the scope and rationale. It continues with a technology introduction to optoelectronic active devices and then a selection guide that would enable a system design engineer to use the documents in the Fiber Optics series to select or specify suitable optoelectronic active devices for avionics applications. The main document also includes environmental guidelines for active devices to be used in avionics applications. These are included as guidance for commercial aircraft use and are included with the caveat that the requirements of any particular aircraft platform or customer would supersede these generic guidelines.

AIRCRAFT/GROUND INFORMATION EXCHANGE (AGIE) USING INTERNET PROTOCOLS

2014-09-15

CURRENT

ARINC830

The purpose of this document is to define a general purpose non-proprietary information exchange framework and protocol for the conduct of Internet Protocol based message traffic between aircraft and airline ground infrastructure. This standard is motivated by the vision to substantially simplify information processing management for airlines by eliminating multiple dissimilar implementations with a single universal system and thereby establishing a more economical environment.

ONBOARD MOBILE TELEPHONY SYSTEM (OMTS)

2009-05-29

CURRENT

ARINC824

This document provides standards necessary to achieve interchangeability between equipment providers. Attachment 1 specifies an interconnection scheme by which aircraft can be wired to enable full interchangeability between OMTS products from different suppliers. Attachment 1 also specifies a minimum interface configuration which can be viewed as a desirable future implementation on new aircraft because of its potential for significant weight and space savings along with the possibility for less complex integration into the OEM production environment. The OMTS standard includes the physical interfaces, wiring, connectors, space envelopes, equipment chassis, unit co-location requirements, and power requirements. The basic functionality within each component of the OMTS is covered. Detailed functionality, protocols, and design parameters unique to each system supplier are not covered in this document.

ON-GROUND AIRCRAFT WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

2016-07-14

CURRENT

ARINC822A

This specification describes the functionality and interfaces of an Internet Protocol (IP)-based wireless communications system between an aircraft on the ground and a ground-based network using Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) and/or cellular radios and protocols. The ground-based network will be primarily used to provide connectivity to an airline's back office or to its back-end maintenance systems although other uses are also possible when there is a need to transfer data to or from the aircraft's applications while it is taxiing or parked. Gatelink is the accepted industry term for this type of connection. This document is a major revision to ARINC Specification 822 released in 2008.
