Interference estimation in an aeronautical ad hoc network
Recent research have considered aeronautical ad hoc networks as a possible mean for future aeronautical communications. By introducing inter- aircraft links, they are supposed to become an alternative to existing solutions based on direct air- ground or satellite links. In this paper, we propose the use of asynchronous Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) in aeronautical ad hoc networks. We then present a simulation model developed with OPNET Modeler that estimates the impact of Multiple Access Interference (MAI) on packets delivery. Finally, we give the results of some simulations made with an ATC/AOC traffic model, and with real aircraft positions over the French sky
Geographic Centroid Routing for Vehicular Networks
A number of geolocation-based Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN) routing
protocols have been shown to perform well in selected simulation and mobility
scenarios. However, the suitability of these mechanisms for vehicular networks
utilizing widely-available inexpensive Global Positioning System (GPS) hardware
has not been evaluated. We propose a novel geolocation-based routing primitive
(Centroid Routing) that is resilient to the measurement errors commonly present
in low-cost GPS devices. Using this notion of Centroids, we construct two novel
routing protocols and evaluate their performance with respect to positional
errors as well as traditional DTN routing metrics. We show that they outperform
existing approaches by a significant margin.Comment: 6 page
On the Security of the Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast Protocol
Automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) is the communications
protocol currently being rolled out as part of next generation air
transportation systems. As the heart of modern air traffic control, it will
play an essential role in the protection of two billion passengers per year,
besides being crucial to many other interest groups in aviation. The inherent
lack of security measures in the ADS-B protocol has long been a topic in both
the aviation circles and in the academic community. Due to recently published
proof-of-concept attacks, the topic is becoming ever more pressing, especially
with the deadline for mandatory implementation in most airspaces fast
approaching.
This survey first summarizes the attacks and problems that have been reported
in relation to ADS-B security. Thereafter, it surveys both the theoretical and
practical efforts which have been previously conducted concerning these issues,
including possible countermeasures. In addition, the survey seeks to go beyond
the current state of the art and gives a detailed assessment of security
measures which have been developed more generally for related wireless networks
such as sensor networks and vehicular ad hoc networks, including a taxonomy of
all considered approaches.Comment: Survey, 22 Pages, 21 Figure

Aeronautical Ad Hoc Network for Civil Aviation
Aeronautical communication systems are constantly evolving in order to handle the always increasing flow of data generated by civil aviation. In this article we first present communication systems currently used for en-route aircraft. We then propose Aeronautical Ad hoc NETwork (AANET) as a complementary communication system and demonstrate its connectivity and assess the throughput by simulations based on real aircraft trajectories over the French sky and over the Atlantic ocean
Performance Assessment of a New Routing Protocol in AANET
Routing is a critical issue in mobile ad hoc networks. The routing algorithm must take into account the specific properties of the network such as its topology, the mobility of the nodes and their number. In this paper, we present a simulation-based study of the performances of our innovative routing protocol named NoDe-TBR (Node Density TBR) that takes into account the actual node density distribution. The considered ad hoc network is an Aeronautical Ad hoc NETwork (AANET), a future communication system enabling air↔air and air↔ground communications beyond the radio range of the sender. This context and the communication architecture have been modeled in a realistic way based on replayed aircraft trajectories, a realistic access layer, and application that should be deployed in the future
