Tutorial

The ATN2004 tutorial was the ideal place to bring yourself up-to-speed with developments in the Link2000+ programme and to learn about FANS-1 and IP convergence. During the morning there was a briefing on Eurocontrol’s Link2000+ programme. This covered services, systems and the deployment programme for ground and airborne systems over the next two to three years.

In the afternoon FANS-1/A and ATN convergence strategies were outlined and discussed. IP technologies was also described and convergence strategies with the ATN discussed.
