Inmarsat is exhibiting at this year’s ATCA Global on booth 220 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington D.C.. Formerly known as ATCA Annual, ATCA Global takes the theme “Connecting People to Shape Tomorrow’s Airspace” and will examine the fast-paced changes occurring in today’s airspace.
With airspace operations needing to focus on two pressing challenges, congestion and decarbonisation, we will showcase how our Iris Global and Inmarsat Velaris satellite communications services are enabling air traffic modernisation to help tackle these issues.
The US faces regional congestion by 2030, caused by outdated infrastructure and a lack of capacity, which will lead to unnecessary delays, operational inefficiencies, and excess fuel burn and CO2 emissions.
Iris Global, our satellite-based data link service developed in partnership with the European Space Agency, is designed to relieve pressure on congested VHF links and improve data link services to enable next-generation air traffic management.
Iris is the start of a global evolution of digital ATM, powered by our worldwide ELERA satellite constellation that is compliant with global ATN-OSI and ATN-IPS standards. Iris provides the congestion free connectivity needed for time and trajectory-based operations, with all the datalink, connected EFB and voice services in one end-to-end encrypted satcom terminal, available on major Boeing, Airbus & Comac platforms.
Visit our booth to learn more about Iris, and our 30+ year history of providing air traffic satellite connectivity, including 95% of the transoceanic aircraft using FANS routes.
Our Velaris solution is enabling uncrewed aircraft to go beyond visual line of sight, offering new possibilities that will completely transform the world in which we live. Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have the potential to deliver impressive societal, humanitarian, environmental and commercial benefits. Come to our booth to see the ultra-small terminal weighing less than 300g and learn about our team of experts from commercial air transport, cybersecurity and unified traffic management who can help bring your connected UAV vision to reality.
