The deployment will be carried out in close cooperation with airports and airlines, and signals a breakthrough for the next-generation communications systems based on ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast) standards. Installation
will commence during spring 2006, and the network will become fully operational in 2007.

NATIONWIDE ADS-B COVERAGE

The decision makes Sweden the first country to achieve nationwide coverage for ADS-B communications systems. It utilises satellite navigation combined with wireless data links, a solution that is expected to complement traditional, radar-based air
traffic control systems, while enabling communications between airport ground control systems and aircraft.

Based on the VDL Mode 4 standards, the network of ground stations can support services for ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B, GNS-B (DGNSS augmentation) and point-to-point communication, allowing aircraft equipped with VDL 4-compliant transceivers to lower fuel
consumption and reduce flight times.
