Point-to-point telex network where all messages come to a central processing location Today ACARS is widely deployed in commercial airlines ATN network is an attempt to modernize ACARS, using most of the existing radio technologies with limited modifications Deployed in a closed, aeronautics-only network • Limited flexibility Cannot adapt easily to new technologies, new communication protocols, and new communication links Security currently is extremely limited at best; however, specifications have been updated in an attempt to rectify this • Limited bandwidth makes security difficult 19 Trường Đại học Bách Khoa Hà Nội Hanoi University of Science and Technology ...
