Model of united airspace network with decentralized traffic routing based on Mesh technologies

Nowadays aviation requires global information support that is practical problem. We propose to solve it by using satellite systems in aircraft telecommunications that will provide connection of separate aircraft network to united airspace network. This work presents developed model of described network solution to estimate its potentiality. Here satellite telecommunication system based on S-Aloha protocol is network core that unites aircraft networks CSMA/CA. Proposed model takes into account network interconnection by Mesh technologies. We tested model behavior dependence on the main parameters of airspace and satellite telecommunication networks. Simulation results showed that Mesh technologies provide network bandwidth enhancement over ten times and reduce message delay during transmission. Effectiveness of Mesh technologies using depends on ratio of connectivity of the airspace network segments and external traffic parameter. We demonstrated application of developed model for solution of aircraft special telecommunication network upgrading and modernization problem.
