The document describes completed work on the investigation of the employment of new wireless network technologies for aviation applications on airport surface areas (ASAs). The wireless technologies studied are those in the new wireless metropolitan area network (WMAN) family developed by the IEEE standards organization, denoted the IEEE 802.16 standard(s). The particular version of this standard is 802.16-2004, which was recently enhanced to 802.16e primarily to enable support of mobility. The primary goal of the project was to evaluate this networking technology, deployed in the 5 GHz microwave landing system extension (E-MLS) band is ASAs. This evaluation was to be both analytical and experimental. |
