A Simple BGP-based Mobile Routing System for the Aeronautical
Telecommunications Network
draft-templin-atn-bgp-03.txt
Abstract
The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is investigating
mobile routing solutions for a worldwide Aeronautical
Telecommunications Network with Internet Protocol Services (ATN/IPS).
The ATN/IPS will eventually replace existing communication services
with an IPv6-based service supporting pervasive Air Traffic
Management (ATM) for Air Traffic Controllers (ATC), Airline
Operations Controllers (AOC), and all commercial aircraft worldwide.
This informational document describes a simple mobile routing service
based on mature industry standards to address the ATN/IPS
requirements.

1. Introduction
The International Civil Aviation Organization [ICAO] is investigating
mobile routing solutions for a worldwide Aeronautical
Telecommunications Network with Internet Protocol Services (ATN/IPS).
The ATN/IPS will eventually replace existing communication services
with an IPv6-based service supporting pervasive Air Traffic
Management (ATM) for Air Traffic Controllers (ATC), Airline
Operations Controllers (AOC), and all commercial aircraft worldwide.
This informational document describes a simple mobile routing service
based on mature industry standards to address the ATN/IPS
requirements.
Aircraft communicate via wireless aviation data links that typically
support much lower data rates than terrestrial wireless and wired-
line communications. For example, VHF-based data links only support
data rates on the order of 32Kbps and an emerging L-Band data link
that is expected to play a key role in future aeronautical
communications only supports rates on the order of 1Mbps. Although
satellite data links can provide much higher data rates during
optimal conditions, they (like all other aviation data links) are
subject to errors, delay, disruption, signal intermittence,
