3.1.3 General definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
adjacent channel power: amount of the modulated RF signal power which falls within a given adjacent channel
NOTE: Adjacent channel power includes discrete spurious, signal sidebands, and noise density (including phase
noise) at the transmitter output.
Adjacent Channel Rejection (ACR): receiver's ability to demodulate the desired signal and meet the BER requirement
in the presence of an interfering signal in an adjacent channel
NOTE: The ratio (in dB) between the adjacent interfering signal level and the desired signal level necessary to
achieve the specified minimum BER, is the adjacent channel rejection (ACR) ratio.
Aeronautical Mobile Service (AMS): mobile service between aeronautical stations and aircraft stations, or between
aircraft stations, in which survival craft stations may participate
Aeronautical Telecommunications Network (ATN): internetwork architecture that allows ground, air/ground, and
aircraft data subnetworks to interoperate by adopting common interface services and protocols based on the
International Organization for Standardization Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model
aircraft address: unique combination of 24 bits available for assignment to an aircraft for the purpose of air-ground
communications, navigation and surveillance
NOTE: An aircraft may choose not to use this unique address and can use instead a non-unique address.
Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B): surveillance application transmitting parameters, such as
position, track and ground speed, via a broadcast mode data link for use by any air and ground users requiring it
NOTE: ADS-B is a surveillance service based on aircraft self-determination of position/velocity/time and
automatic, periodic or random, broadcast of this information along with auxiliary data such as aircraft
identity (ID), communications control parameters, etc. ADS-B is intended to support multiple high-level
applications and associated services such as cockpit display of traffic information, traffic alert and
collision avoidance functionality, enhanced traffic management in the air and on the ground, search and
rescue support and others.
autotune function: function, performed by the Link Management Entity, that allows a ground VDL Mode 4 station to
command an aircraft to change the operating characteristics of synchronization burst transmissions
Bit Error Rate (BER): expressed as the ratio between the number of erroneous bits received and the total number of
bits received
burst length: number of slots across which the VDL Mode 4 burst is transmitted
Co-Channel Interference (CCI): co-channel interference protection defines the capability of a receiver to demodulate
the desired signal and achieve the minimum specified BER performance in the presence of an unwanted signal at the
same assigned frequency
NOTE: The ratio (in dB) between the wanted signal level and the unwanted signal level is the co-channel
interference ratio. The co-channel interference ratio has a major impact on frequency re-use planning
criteria.
conducted measurements: measurements which are made using a direct RF connection to the equipment under test
current slot: slot in which a received transmission begins
Data Link Entity (DLE): protocol state machine capable of setting up and managing a single data link connection
Data Link Service (DLS) sublayer: sublayer that resides above the VDL Mode 4 Specific Services (VSS) and the
MAC sublayers
NOTE: The Data Link Service (DLS) manages the transmit queue, creates and destroys Data Link Entities
(DLEs) for connection-oriented communications, provides facilities for the Link Management Entity
(LME) to manage the DLS, and provides facilities for connection-less communications.
ETSI
12 ETSI EN 301 842-1 V1.4.1 (2015-04)
data rate: Mode 4 nominal data rate is 19 200 bits/s
delayed burst: VDL Mode 4 burst that begins sufficiently after the beginning of a slot so that the transmitting VDL
Mode 4 station is confident that no other VDL Mode 4 station that it could receive from and is within the guard range is
transmitting in the slot
NOTE: The delayed VDL Mode 4 burst terminates by the end of the slot in which it began (its length is shortened
to ensure completion by the nominal time).
DLS system: VDL system that implements the DLS and subnetwork protocols to carry Aeronautical
Telecommunications Network (ATN) or other packets
frame: link layer frame is composed of a sequence of address, control, information and FCS fields, bracketed by
opening and closing flag sequences
NOTE: A valid frame is at least 11 octets in length and contains an address field (8 octets), a link control field
(1 octet) and a frame check sequence (2 octets). A frame may or may not include a variable-length
information field.
Global Signalling Channel (GSC): channel available on a world wide basis which provides for communication control
ground base station: aeronautical station equipment, in the aeronautical mobile service, for use with an external
antenna and intended for use at a fixed location
ground station coordination: coordination of transmissions from two or more ground stations uses the UTC-minute
time frame
hand held: radio equipment with integral batteries, designed to be hand portable and operated hand held
NOTE: Provisions may be made for external connections and temporary installation into vehicles.
integral antenna equipment: radio communications equipment with an antenna integrated into the equipment without
the use of an external connector and considered to be part of the equipment
NOTE: An integral antenna may be internal or external to the equipment. In equipment of this type, a 50 Ω RF
connection point should be provided for test purposes.
link: connects a mobile DLE and a ground DLE and is uniquely specified by the combination of mobile DLS address
and the ground DLS address
NOTE: A different subnetwork entity resides above every link endpoint.
link establishment: process by which two stations discover each other, determine to communicate with each other,
decide upon the communication parameters, create a link and initialize its state before beginning communications
link handoff: process by which peer LMEs, already in communication with each other, create a link between an aircraft
and a new ground station before disconnecting the old link between the aircraft and the current ground station
link layer: layer that lies immediately above the physical layer in the Open Systems Interconnection protocol model
NOTE: The link layer provides for the reliable transfer of information across the physical media. It is subdivided
into the data link sublayer and the media access control sublayer.
Link Management Entity (LME): protocol state machine capable of acquiring, establishing, and maintaining a
connection to a single peer system
NOTE: An LME establishes data link and subnetwork connections, "hands-off" those connections, and manages
the media access control sublayer and physical layer. An aircraft LME tracks how well it can
communicate with the ground stations of a single ground system. An aircraft VDL management entity
(VME) instantiates an LME for each ground station that it monitors. Similarly, the ground VME
instantiates an LME for each aircraft that it monitors. An LME is deleted when communication with the
peer system is no longer viable.
Media Access Control (MAC): sublayer that acquires the data path and controls the movement of bits over the data
path
ETSI
13 ETSI EN 301 842-1 V1.4.1 (2015-04)
mobile: radio equipment designed for installation into vehicles
non-integral antenna equipment: radio communications equipment with a connector intended for connection to an
antenna
physical layer: lowest level layer in the Open Systems Interconnection protocol model
NOTE: The physical layer is concerned with only the transmission of binary information over the physical
medium (e.g. VHF radio).
primary time source: normal operation timing mode in which a VDL Mode 4 station maintains time synchronization
to Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) second to within a two-sigma value of 400 ns
private parameters: parameters that are contained in exchange identity (XID) frames and that are unique to the VHF
digital link environment
radiated measurements: measurements which involve the measurement of a radiated field
reference bit sequence: sequence of bits used in the transmitter performance specifications
reference signal level: signal level used in the receiver performance specifications except otherwise stated
secondary time source: timing source used in a failure mode, which applies when the primary time source fails, in
which a VDL Mode 4 station maintains time synchronization to UTC second to within a two-sigma value of 15 µs
Self-organizing Time Division Multiple Access (STDMA): multiple access scheme based on time-shared use of a
radio frequency (RF) channel employing:
1) discrete contiguous time slots as the fundamental shared resource; and
2) a set of operating protocols that allows users to mediate access to these time slots without reliance on a master
control station.
slot: In VDL Mode 4, time is divided into a series of time slots of equal period
NOTE: Each VDL Mode 4 burst transmission starts at the beginning of a slot.
station: VDL Mode 4 Specific Services (VSS)-capable entity
NOTE: A station may be either a mobile station or a ground station. A station is a physical entity that transmits
and receives bursts over the RF interface (either A/G or Air-to-Air (A/A)) and comprises, at a minimum:
a physical layer, media access control sublayer, and a unique VSS address. A station which is also a DLS
station has the same address.
subnetwork layer: layer that establishes, manages, and terminates connections across a subnetwork
superframe: group of 4 500 slots that span a period of one UTC minute
NOTE: The start of the current superframe is aligned with the start of the slot that is currently being used for
transmission. The next superframe starts one minute after the current slot.
synchronization burst (or "sync" burst): VDL Mode 4 burst which announces, as a minimum, existence and position
NOTE: Ground stations announce existence, position, and the current time. Mobile stations lacking timing
information can then derive the slot structure from ground synchronization bursts. Mobile stations lacking
position information can derive position from both mobile and ground synchronization bursts. This
periodic information is used in various ways including ADS-B, secondary navigation, and simplifying the
LME algorithms.
Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA): multiple access scheme based on time-shared use of an RF channel
employing:
1) discrete contiguous time slots as the fundamental shared resource; and
2) a set of operating protocols that allows users to interact with a master control station to mediate access to the
channel.
ETSI
14 ETSI EN 301 842-1 V1.4.1 (2015-04)
unicasted transmission: transmission addressed to a single station
VDL Management Entity (VME): VDL-specific entity that provides the quality of service requested by the
ATN-defined subnetwork system management entity
NOTE: A VME uses the LMEs (that it creates and destroys) to acquire the quality of service available from peer
systems.
VDL Mode 2: VHF data link using a differentially encoded 8 phase shift keying modulation scheme and carrier sense
multiple access
VDL Mode 4: VHF data link using a Gaussian-filtered Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) modulation scheme and self
organizing time division multiple access
VDL Mode 4 burst: sequence of source address, burst ID, information, slot reservation, and Frame Check Sequence
(FCS) fields, bracketed by opening and closing flag sequences, and preceded by a preamble
NOTE 1: The start of a burst may occur only at quantized time intervals and this constraint allows the propagation
delay between the transmission and reception to be derived.
