International Telecommunication Union Annex to ITU Operational Bulletin No. 693 - 1.VI.1999 INTERNATIONAL TELECOMMUNICATION UNION ITU-T TELECOMMUNICATION STANDARDIZATION SECTOR OF ITU COMPLEMENT TO ITU-T RECOMMENDATIONS F.69 AND F.68 LIST OF TELEX DESTINATION CODES (TDC) AND TELEX NETWORK IDENTIFICATION CODES (TNIC) (POSITION ON 31 MAY 1999) Geneva, 1999 List of Telex Destination Codes (TDC) and Telex Network Identification Codes (TNIC) Note from the TSB 1. By TSB Circular 80 of 3 June 1994, the TSB announced the approval of ITU-T Recommendation F.69 (06/94), in accordance with Resolution No. 1, Section 8, of the WTSC (Helsinki, 1993). Consequently, the TSB prepared a list of telex destination codes (TDC) and the corresponding telex network identification codes (TNIC), which are allocated in accordance with ITU -T Recommendation F.68. This list, based on Annex A to ITU -T Recommendation F.69 as published in the Blue Book (Volume II - Fascicle II.4 - pages 142 to 145), incorporates the changes of codes or designations of names of countries/geographical areas already announced in the ITU Operational Bulletins over the past few years and was published as Annex to Operational Bulletin No. 590 of 15 February 1995. 2. The new List annexed to Operational Bulletin No. 693 of 1 June 1999, replaces that published in Annex to Operational Bulletin No. 590 of 15 February 1995. It incorporates the 15 Amendments published in ITU Operational Bulletins from No. 592 of 15.III.1995 to No. 692 of 15.V.1999. In addition, the two-letter telegram network codes, referring to paragraph 7.3 of ITU -T Recommendation F.32 (10/95), corresponding to one-letter telex network identification codes are appended to this List. 3. In the interests of keeping the List up to date, administrations/ROAs are requested to check the accuracy of the information it contains and to inform TSB of any changes which should be made for its updating (TSB fax No. +41 22 730 5853, or telex number 421000 uit ch). Changes will be published in the following ITU Operational Bulletin as Amendments to the List. 4. Furthermore, the information contained in this Annex to the ITU Operational Bulletin No. 693 is also available on the ITU home page http://www.itu.int/itudoc/itu -t/ob-lists, and can be consulted by subscribers, by remote access. 5. The designations employed and the presentation of material in this List do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of the ITU concerning the legal status of any country or geographical area, or of its authorities.

  • Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) Handbook 2018 I CONTENTS
    FOREWORD This handbook has been produced by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA), and is intended for use on ships that are: • compulsorily equipped with GMDSS radiocommunication installations in accordance with the requirements of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea Convention 1974 (SOLAS) and Commonwealth or State government marine legislation • voluntarily equipped with GMDSS radiocommunication installations. It is the recommended textbook for candidates wishing to qualify for the Australian GMDSS General Operator’s Certificate of Proficiency. This handbook replaces the tenth edition of the GMDSS Handbook published in September 2013, and has been amended to reflect: • changes to regulations adopted by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) World Radiocommunications Conference (2015) • changes to Inmarsat services • an updated AMSA distress beacon registration form • changes to various ITU Recommendations • changes to the publications published by the ITU • developments in Man Overboard (MOB) devices • clarification of GMDSS radio log procedures • general editorial updating and improvements. Procedures outlined in the handbook are based on the ITU Radio Regulations, on radio procedures used by Australian Maritime Communications Stations and Satellite Earth Stations in the Inmarsat network. Careful observance of the procedures covered by this handbook is essential for the efficient exchange of communications in the marine radiocommunication service, particularly where safety of life at sea is concerned. Special attention should be given to those sections dealing with distress, urgency, and safety. Operators of radiocommunications equipment on vessels not equipped with GMDSS installations should refer to the Marine Radio Operators Handbook published by the Australian Maritime College, Launceston, Tasmania, Australia. No provision of this handbook or the ITU Radio Regulations prevents the use, by a ship in distress, of any means at its disposal to attract attention, make known its position and obtain help.

  • Updated Analysis of Inmarsat and Iridium Aeronautical Services in the Same Oceanic Airspace
    E.F.C.LaBerge Senior Fellow, Honeywell CNS RTC June 18, 2008 [email protected] Updated Analysis of Inmarsat and Iridium Aeronautical Services in the Same Oceanic Airspace. 1 IEEE/AIAA 26th DASC, October 2007, Paper 213 EFC LaBerge & D. Zeng Purpose and Scope of the Analysis • Investigate Iridium AMSS/AMS(R)S and Inmarsat AMSS/AMS(R)S on separate aircraft in the same oceanic airspace • Analysis is limited to Oceanic Airspace structured following DO-306 guidelines, since FANS-1/A datalink Air Traffic Service (ATS) has widespread approval for operations in oceanic airspace • Conclusions are not applicable to other operational scenarios or airspace, including: - Polar, continental enroute, terminal, approach, and airport surface airspace as defined in Eurocontrol/FAA COCR document; - Simultaneous independent operation of Iridium and Inmarsat AESes on the same aircraft; and - All non-aeronautical terminals and non-aeronautical services 2 Released to ICAO ACP WGM June 18, 2008 Conclusions • The probability of Inmarsat AMSS/AMS(R)S causing a service interruption that would affect the availability of Iridium AMSS/AMS(R)S operating on separate aircraft in oceanic airspace is very small • In oceanic airspace, Inmarsat AMSS/AMS(R)S out of band emissions from one aircraft do not cause harmful interference to Iridium AMSS/AMS(R)S on another aircraft: - The functioning of Iridium AMSS/AMS(R)S is not endangered; - No serious degradation, obstruction or repeated interruption of the operation of Iridium AMSS/AMS(R)S 3 Released to ICAO ACP WGM June 18, 2008 Full disclosure, etc. • This work was based on the volumetric interference approach briefed to AMCP WGA in 1998-2000… • …and supported by Iridium, LLC (the old Iridium).

  • High Throughput Ku-Band for Aero Applications
    WHITE PAPER High Throughput Ku-band for Aero Applications 1 Summary Recent advancements in high throughput Ku-band satellites will allow commercial Ku-band aeronautical mobile satellite systems (AMSS) to equal or exceed commercial Ka-band AMSS systems on cost and performance. The first example of this is Panasonic’s acquisition of capacity on Intelsat-29e satellite, the first satellite to use Intelsat’s Epic platform. Ku-band currently dominates the AMSS broadband market. Systems like Panasonic’s eXConnect, Row44 and Yonder provide service to the commercial market while other providers such as Tachyon and Boeing serve the government market. All of these systems use conventional continental-scale wide beams that are leased from Fixed Satellite Service (FSS) providers like Intelsat. However, in several years the dominance of Ku-band in the AMSS market will be challenged by forthcoming Ka-band systems, such as Inmarsat-5. These systems use customized satellites with multiple spot beams to offer enhanced performance over conventional wide beam Ku-band. This paper demonstrates that the key to the high throughput of Ka systems such as Inmarsat-5 is not the frequency of operation, but rather the use of spot beams. This means a Ku-band satellite using similarly sized spot beams can equal or exceed the performance of Ka-band satellites. Intelsat’s Epic platform takes full advantage of this fact. Panasonic and Intelsat have collaborated on Intelsat-29e, the first Epic satellite, to serve the needs of the AMSS market in North America and the North Atlantic – two of the densest aviation markets in the world.

That’s more than 7 billion passengers. Recent research indicates that today 6 out of 10 passengers believe inflight Wi-Fi is no longer a luxury, but a necessity 2 – and we believe that proportion will be even higher in coming years.
