La nouvelle génération Iridium, avec Motorola apporte des services insoupçonnés (Pour moi!) à la navigation Aérienne :
L'ADS-B en couverture complète, 100% de la planète cela pour (vers) 2018 !
Le premier satellite vient d'être testé avec succés.
L'ADS-B n'était couvert que sur, (ou proche de) la terre ferme, et suivant les installations existantes, dans les pays, qui en plus l'acceptaient ...
De nombreuses zones d'ombre existaient .
Trés bientôt, tout avion maintenant son transpondeur allumé sera identifié, et bien sûr sa trajectoire connue.
Bien intéressant pour la sécurité et pour d'éventuelles recherches. Juste penser à MH370, et AF447. et l'Egypt Air en Méditerranée.
On peut supposer que ces services seront facturés, Iridium ne pouvant se permettre la philanthropie !
Les clients : tous les "air navigation service providers (ANSPs)" ATM, et autres FlightAware ...
Bien, aprés un départ chaotique, chapter 11, (Trou de x Milliards) reprise, etc ... la nouvelle génération de satellites Iridium semble bien sur les rails.
Et de nouveaux investisseurs se sont groupé pour financer cette fonctionnalité (ADS-B) sous le nom de : (Space-based ADS-B provider Aireon)
Vu chez ATW, c'est de mi Mars.

Satellite communications company Iridium is replacing all its existing satellites with the new models which each feature an Aireon ADS-B payload. The first 10 NEXT satellites were launched on a Space X rocket in January, and the first of those went fully operational to replace an existing satellite just prior to the World ATM Congress in Madrid last week.
That milestone saw the first of the Aireon ADS-B receivers put into service, seeing and tracking aircraft from space, followed shortly thereafter by the system’s first test flight.
-----------------
Similar tests are being run with the FAA this week, and will be rolled out across Aireon’s 10 launch customers around the world who will be using this data for surveillance. These include the four Aireon investors, namely the air navigation service providers (ANSPs) of Canada (NavCanada), Ireland (IAA), Denmark (Naviair) and Italy (ENAV). The UK’s NATS was the first commercial customer to sign up for satellite ADS-B on the North Atlantic, and subsequent signatories include the ANSPs of South Africa, Singapore, the Seychelles, Curacao and Iceland. And in late February, Aireon signed an agreement with Airways New Zealand, paving the way to start operational validation of the data in the Pacific.
In addition, a number of Memoranda of Agreement (MoAs) are in place with ANSPs that are evaluating both the performance metrics of the satellite ADS-B data and how it would impact their operating environment. MoAs are in place with Australia and India, but Thoma said there had also been a noticeable “uptick in the number of European ANSPs that are interested,” with MoAs signed with DFS (Germany) and DSNA (France).
