Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); VHF air-ground and air-air Digital Link (VDL) Mode 4 radio equipment; Technical characteristics and methods of measurement for aeronautical mobile (airborne) equipment; Part 3: Additional broadcast aspects
The present document applies to the following radio equipment types: -Very High Frequency (VHF) Digital Link (VDL) Mode 4 aeronautical mobile (airborne) radio transmitters, transceivers and receivers for air-ground and air-air communications operating in the VHF band, using Gaussian Filtered Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) modulation with 25 kHz channel spacing and capable of tuning to any of the 25 kHz channels from 118,000 MHz to 136,975 MHz as defined in ICAO VDL SARPs 130 [2]. The present technical document provides part 3 of the technical specifications. The present document is designed to ensure that equipment certified to it will be compatible with the relevant ICAO VDL SARPs [2] and ICAO VDL4 Technical Manual [1] and with the SES 552/2004 interoperability Regulation [10]. Manufacturers should note that in future the tuning range for the transmitter may also cover any 25 kHz channel from 112,000 MHz to 117,975 MHz and the receiver(s) may cover any 25 kHz channel from 108,000 MHz to 117,975 MHz. The present document applies to "aeronautical mobile (airborne and in some cases ground vehicles)" equipment which will hereinafter be referred to as "mobile" equipment. The scope of the present document is limited to mobile stations. The equivalent specification for ground stations is EN 301 842 [9]. A description of the scope of the VDL Mode 4 system is provided in part 2 of these technical specifications (see EN 302 842-2 [5] clause 1). EN 302 842-1 [4] deals with tests of the physical layer. EN 302 842-2 [5] deals with tests of the link layer sufficient to support broadcast functionality including requirements and tests sufficient to recognize and respond to transmissions associated with point-to-point communication. The present document provides technical specifications for a VDL Mode 4 mobile transceiver supporting a full Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) capability and, optionally, the additional functionality of either, or a combination of, the following services: -Traffic Information Service-Broadcast (TIS-B); -Flight Information Service-Broadcast (FIS-B); -GNSS Augmentation Service-Broadcast (GNS-B). The TIS-B, FIS-B, or GNS-B reception processing functionality in the airborne equipment is expected to be provided by a TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B processor, which could be contained within the VDL Mode 4 transceiver, but could also be housed in a separate physical unit. Therefore to support TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B message reception, the minimum functionality demanded of a basic VDL Mode 4 airborne transceiver unit (i.e. one that does not have a TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B processor housed within it) is to pass to the TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B processor, all TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B messages received. As the measured values of equipment performance may be a function of the method of measurement, standard test conditions and methods of test are recommended in the present document. The present document is organized as follows: -clause 2 provides references to relevant documents; -clause 3 provides general definitions, abbreviations and symbols used; -clause 4 describes the VDL Mode 4 mobile station functionality to support ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B; -clause 5 provides performance specifications for the VDL Mode 4 mobile station supporting ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B Services; -clause 6 provides general design requirements.

Introduction
The present document states the technical specifications for Very High Frequency (VHF) Digital Link (VDL) Mode 4
aeronautical mobile (airborne) radio transmitters, transceivers and receivers for air-ground and air-air communications
operating in the VHF band, using Gaussian Filtered Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) modulation with 25 kHz channel
spacing and capable of tuning to any of the 25 kHz channels from 118,000 MHz to 136,975 MHz as defined in
ICAO VDL SARPs [2].
The present document may be used to produce tests for the assessment of the performance of the equipment. The
performance of the equipment submitted for type testing should be representative of the performance of the
corresponding production model.
The present document has been written on the assumption that:
• the type test measurements will be performed only once, in an accredited test laboratory and the measurements
accepted by the various authorities in order to grant type approval;
• if equipment available on the market is required to be checked it will be tested in accordance with the methods
of measurement specified in the present document or a documented alternative approved by the certifying
authority;
• equipment comply with EN 302 842-1 [4] and EN 302 842-2 [5].
The present document also indicates VDL Mode 4 compliance with the SES 552/2004 interoperability Regulation [10].
NOTE: The present document has been produced with a view to maintaining consistency of numbering with the
equivalent standard for ground equipment (EN 301 842 all parts [9]). Where requirements are the same,
they have been given the same number. Some new airborne requirements have been inserted between
requirements that were sequential in EN 301 842 [9]. This has led to a non-standard form of numbering
for new requirements in some places.

1 Scope
The present document applies to the following radio equipment types:
• Very High Frequency (VHF) Digital Link (VDL) Mode 4 aeronautical mobile (airborne) radio transmitters,
transceivers and receivers for air-ground and air-air communications operating in the VHF band, using
Gaussian Filtered Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) modulation with 25 kHz channel spacing and capable of
tuning to any of the 25 kHz channels from 118,000 MHz to 136,975 MHz as defined in ICAO VDL
SARPs 130 [2].
The present technical document provides part 3 of the technical specifications.
The present document is designed to ensure that equipment certified to it will be compatible with the relevant
ICAO VDL SARPs [2] and ICAO VDL4 Technical Manual [1] and with the SES 552/2004 interoperability
Regulation [10].
Manufacturers should note that in future the tuning range for the transmitter may also cover any 25 kHz channel from
112,000 MHz to 117,975 MHz and the receiver(s) may cover any 25 kHz channel from 108,000 MHz to 117,975 MHz.
The present document applies to "aeronautical mobile (airborne and in some cases ground vehicles)" equipment which
will hereinafter be referred to as "mobile" equipment.
The scope of the present document is limited to mobile stations. The equivalent specification for ground stations is
EN 301 842 [9].
A description of the scope of the VDL Mode 4 system is provided in part 2 of these technical specifications
(see EN 302 842-2 [5] clause 1).
EN 302 842-1 [4] deals with tests of the physical layer. EN 302 842-2 [5] deals with tests of the link layer sufficient to
support broadcast functionality including requirements and tests sufficient to recognize and respond to transmissions
associated with point-to-point communication. The present document provides technical specifications for a VDL
Mode 4 mobile transceiver supporting a full Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) capability and,
optionally, the additional functionality of either, or a combination of, the following services:
• Traffic Information Service-Broadcast (TIS-B);
• Flight Information Service-Broadcast (FIS-B);
• GNSS Augmentation Service-Broadcast (GNS-B).
The TIS-B, FIS-B, or GNS-B reception processing functionality in the airborne equipment is expected to be provided
by a TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B processor, which could be contained within the VDL Mode 4 transceiver, but could also
be housed in a separate physical unit. Therefore to support TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B message reception, the minimum
functionality demanded of a basic VDL Mode 4 airborne transceiver unit (i.e. one that does not have a TIS-B, FIS-B or
GNS-B processor housed within it) is to pass to the TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B processor, all TIS-B, FIS-B or GNS-B
messages received.
As the measured values of equipment performance may be a function of the method of measurement, standard test
conditions and methods of test are recommended in the present document.
The present document is organized as follows:
• clause 2 provides references to relevant documents;
• clause 3 provides general definitions, abbreviations and symbols used;
• clause 4 describes the VDL Mode 4 mobile station functionality to support ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B;
• clause 5 provides performance specifications for the VDL Mode 4 mobile station supporting ADS-B, TIS-B,
FIS-B and GNS-B Services;
• clause 6 provides general design requirements;

• clause 7 provides protocol tests which emphasis the ADS-B, TIS-B, FIS-B and GNS-B functions of the
system;
• annex A provides a detailed cross-reference to the relevant requirements contained in
ICAO VDL4 Technical Manual [1];
• annex B provides a Bibliography;
• a document history.
Note that the system can support a very wide range of functions. It is not practical to provide specific tests for all
aspects of functionality. The approach used is to provide detailed tests for the core functionality to support ADS-B,
FIS-B, TIS-B and GNS-B focusing on the system requirements which, if wrongly implemented, could cause a
deterioration in the service offered by other VDL Mode 4 stations.
Mandating and Recommendation Phrases
a) "Shall":
- The use of the word "Shall" indicates a mandated criterion; i.e. compliance with the particular procedure
or specification is mandatory and no alternative may be applied.
b) "Should":
- The use of the word "Should" (and phrases such as "It is recommended that.", etc.) indicates that though
the procedure or criterion is regarded as the preferred option, alternative procedures, specifications or
criteria may be applied, provided that the manufacturer, installer or tester can provide information or data
to adequately support and justify the alternative.
