SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1. General
The SCS system is a mobile aviation communications system that provides highly reliable
telephone, data, and facsimile communications to and from the aircraft via the International
Maritime Satellite Organization (Inmarsat) Mini-- M Aero satellite system. The SCS system
interfaces with the antenna through L--band RF signals that emanate (and are received) from
satellites in geostationary orbit. These satellites then convey the information to and from
ground stations that interface with the terrestrial telephone networks. The SCS system does
not support safety of flight operations.
The Inmarsat satellites are placed in geostationary orbits above various regions of the earth to
provide worldwide coverage. The SCS system locks onto and continually tracks the chosen
satellite regardless of the aircraft’s direction of flight and orientation. The SCS system also
compensates for the Doppler shift of the transmitted and received signals.
The total aviation satellite communications system, shown in Figure 1--1, is made up of the
following:
Mobile Earth Station (airborne SCS system)
Space Segment (satellite network)
Land Earth Stations (terrestrial data and voice networks).

A. Mobile Earth Station
The main component of the Mobile Earth Station (MES) is the SCS system, which is
made up of the antenna and four electronic units. The system interfaces with the optional
voice, PC data and facsimile equipment to accept voice, PC data, or facsimile
information. The electronic units encode and modulate this information onto appropriate
RF carrier frequencies, which are then transmitted by the antenna to the space segment
for relay to the Land Earth Station (LES). These electronic units also receive Radio
Frequency (RF) signals from the LES via the satellite, demodulate these signals, perform
the necessary decoding of encoded messages, and output the voice or data messages
for use by the user. The SCS system diagram is shown in Figure 1--2.

B. Space Segment
The space segment is made up of the Inmarsat satellites that support Mini--M Aero
operations. The satellites function as communication transponders to support L--band
links to and from the MES, and provide links to and from the LES. The space segment
provider for aeronautical satellite communications is the Inmarsat. The four--region
satellite system provided by Inmarsat is shown in Figure 1--3.
The area covered by each satellite is comprised of a number of zones called spot beams.
Separate spot beams are covered by separate antennas on the satellite, allowing for
frequencies to be reused for communications in different areas of the earth.

C. Land Earth Station
Mini--M Aero communications, via Inmarsat satellites, are transmitted to and from the
terrestrial phone and data networks through the LES. Each LES provides the user with a
diverse routing of national and international voice and data communications via
submarine cable, satellite, and microwave links to all destinations. Automatic traffic
management systems ensure efficient routing of communications by using optimum links
into Public Switched Telephone Networks (PSTN) and avoiding multiple satellite
connections whenever possible.
The Land Earth Stations (LES) are located strategically around the world to provide
redundancy and diversity in the terrestrial extension of communications. Some problems
may be encountered when the aircraft flies in polar regions with a latitude greater than
75 degrees. The present worldwide complement of LES including location, operator, and
coverage region are summarized in Table 1--1.

3. System Functional Description
The system functional description gives a general overview and summary of the features and
interfaces in the SCS system. Figure 1-- 4 shows a functional block diagram of the SCS
system.
Figure 1--4. System Functional Block Diagram
A. Aero Antenna Unit
The primary function of the Aero Antenna Unit (AAU) is to complete the communications
link between the land earth station, the satellite, and the SCS system. The AAU contains
a two axis mechanically steered antenna for tracking a geostationary satellite from a
moving base. The gimballed antenna transmits and receives signals in the 1.6 GHz
band. In addition to the mechanically steered antenna, the AAU also contains a Global
Positioning Sensor (GPS) antenna, angular sensors, and electronics for producing global
positioning sensor inputs for the tracking algorithm, which is performed in the Antenna
Control Unit (ACU). The AAU contains a microcontroller that is used to read the sensors,
communicate this sensor data serially to the ACU, process the serial inputs from the ACU,
and translate the serial input data into motor commands to drive the antenna to the
correct position. The interfaces to the aircraft are through two RF pigtail cables, which
exit from underneath the AAU toward the forward end.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND INSTALLATION MANUAL
SCS--1000 Mini--M Aero SATCOM System
B. Antenna Control Unit
The Antenna Control Unit (ACU) is required for the mechanically steered AAU. The ACU
serves as an interface module between the AAU and the Telephone Unit (TPU). The
ACU performs three main functions for the SCS system:
Points the antenna at the satellite
Calculates the relative speed between the aircraft and the satellite for the Doppler shift
correction
Calculates the distance that the aircraft travels so that new spot beams are selected
and new working frequencies are chosen when the aircraft moves into an area
covered by a different spot beam antenna on the satellite.
The ACU is made up of an RF Board (RFB), an Antenna Tracking Board (ATB), GPS
engine, and a diplexer/low noise amplifier. The RFB amplifies L --band signals in the
transmit path and sets the transmitted power for the signals. In the receive path, the RFB
down--converts L--band signals to IF signals and provides signal amplification. The RFB
also communicates serially with the Telephone Unit (TPU).
The ATB executes the tracking algorithms based on sensor inputs from the AAU and the
GPS engine. These algorithms enable the ATB to generate steering commands to
mechanically steer the antenna in the direction of the satellite. In addition, the ATB
superimposes 27.5 V dc voltage onto the GPS line to p rovide operating power to the
AAU. The ATB also stores aircraft calibration data.
The GPS engine calculates the position and velocity of the aircraft in relation to the
geostationary satellite based on inputs from the GPS antenna in the AAU. The GPS
engine then provides inputs into the tracking algorithm based on these calculations.
The diplexer is a three--port device (antenna, transmit, and receive), which provides
signal routing and filtering functions for the RF signals. Receive signals are routed from
the antenna port to the receive port; transmit signals are routed from the transmit port to
the antenna port. The Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) establishes the noise floor of the
communication system by boosting the RF signals and noise received from the antenna
to a level much greater than the noise level of subsequent components in the receive
path.
C. Power Supply Unit
The voltage source for the Power Supply Unit (PSU) is the 28 V dc supply from the
aircraft. From this dc source, the PSU supplies regulated 16 V dc power to the TPU, and
27.5 V dc to the ACU. The PSU also acts as a conduit for the RF signal between the
TPU and ACU. The PSU monitors the 12 V dc voltage superimposed onto the RF signal.
The PSU removes this dc component and replaces it with 27.5 V dc, which serves as the
voltage source for the ACU. When the dc voltage from the TPU drops below 7 V dc, the
27.5 V dc to the ACU is turned off. The maximum power output of the PSU is 30 Watts.

SCS--1000 Mini--M Aero SATCOM System
D. Telephone Unit
The TPU interfaces with the handset unit and the optional accessory equipment
(telephone, PC, fax machine) through serial Input/Output (I/O) ports. The function of the
TPU is to modulate and demodulate signals being received and transmitted by these
communication devices. The TPU is responsible for handling the communication
protocol, frequency adjustment resulting from Doppler shift and channel changes, the
encoding and decoding of signals, and generating IF signals for processing. In the
transmit path, analog voice, fax, or PC data signals from the communication devices are
modulated and encoded by the TPU, converted to an IF signal, and then up--converted to
an RF signal for transmission. In the receive path, IF signals from the ACU are
demodulated and decoded into analog voice, fax, or PC data signals for the
communication devices.
The TPU can interface with an ordinary Dual Tone Multi--Frequency (DTMF) telephone for
basic voice communications. The fax port allows the TPU to interface with a telefax
machine to support Group 3 fax transmissions at a rate of 2.4 kilobits per second (kbps).
The telefax machine is assigned a separate incoming call number.
A personal computer can be connected to the TPU through an RS-- 232 port for individual
setup and operation of all functions of the SCS system. The computer also allows the
use of the built --in data transmission service without the aid of a modem or data card.
The TPU provides access to Asynchronous Data (ASD) services through its built--in
modem capability. The ASD system provides 2.4 kbps data transmissions between an
SCS system and the fixed international network. The data transmission service is
assigned a separate call number. The data transmission service can be used with
standard dial--up connection software to connect the Internet and e--mail services of most
Internet Service Providers (ISP).
The TPU also contains a card slot for a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card. The SIM
card carries subscription information from the Inmarsat service provider or network
service provider on an integrated circuit. The SCS system used with the SIM card
assumes the identity of the card. Each SIM card contains its own set of numbers on
which the user can be contacted regardless of the SCS system being used. All outgoing
calls are billed to the owner of the SIM card.

Antenna Control Unit (ACU)
Power Supply Unit (PSU)
Telephone Unit (TPU)
Handset Unit (HSU).
For additional functionality, the following equipment may be added:
Personal Computer (PC) for control and settings
Telefax machine
Telephone.
The network service provider issues the user license and Inmarsat Mobile Numbers (IMN).
The service provider is also responsible for the billing of calls. The services supported by the
system are as follows:
Telephone calls -- basic telephony services
Telefax -- CCITT Group 3 facsimile services, 2.4 bps
Data communication -- Hayes compatible 2.4 bps data service

2. Making a Call Using the SCS System
A. Calls from the SCS System
To make an outgoing call, you use a standard international telephone number with the
00 prefix. The MES automatically includes information to identify the system and the
particular port that originates the call. The SCS system has four ports configured for:
Handset Unit Calls
Telephone Calls
Telefax Service
Data Service (personal computer).
The LES uses the port identifying information (OI) for billing purposes. The system
transmits the dialling information on a channel specially assigned by the Network
Coordination Station (NCS) to the LES, which also has been instructed to tune to the
same channel. The LES routes the call over the public telecommunications networks to
the intended destination. When the called party responds, the call proceeds.

B. Calls to the SCS System
The SCS system receives incoming calls via the Inmarsat Mobile Number (IMN) phone
numbers. The IMN numbers are assigned to the following ports:
Handset Unit (HSU port)
Telephone (TEL port)
Data service (DATA port)
Telefax service (FAX port)
NIMS service.
Calls are made as ordinary international (satellite) calls where each ocean region has an
international country code (see Appendix A for a list of telephone country codes). If an
area is covered by more than one satellite, it is necessary that the caller knows which
satellite (ocean region) the MES is using. The international codes for the ocean regions
are as follows:
Atlantic Ocean East Region: 871
Pacific Ocean Region: 872
Indian Ocean Region: 873
Atlantic Ocean West Region: 874
NOTE: Some network service providers support the common ocean region access
number 870, which connects the call to the dialed SCS system regardless of the
ocean region the user is currently communicating through.
C. Calls from the Handset Unit
The handset unit is used for telephone calls and basic functions. Additional control of
functions must be performed from a PC connected to the RS--232 jack of the TPU.
Figure 2--2 shows the display and keys of the handset unit. Table 2-- 1 describes the
features of the handset unit.

4. Telefax Service
The TPU provides access to a telefax service at a transmission rate of 2.4 kpbs. The TPU is
fully compatible with the world’s leading telefax machines and telefax software standards.
NOTE: Transmission may not be possible through some of the telefax machines available on
the market. Check with the network service provider before purchasing a telefax
machine for use with the SCS system.
A. Setup
Connect the telefax machine to the FAX port on the TPU connector panel as shown in
Figure 2--4. (Refer to the telefax machine owner’s manual to set the default transmission
rate to 2.4 kpbs.) Verify that the FAX port is configured for telefax service. Refer to the
advanced functions port configuration paragraph 7.K.(4)(a) in this section for information
on how to configure the FAX port for telefax service. Paragraph 3. of this section
describes the operation of the HSU.

23--20--28
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND INSTALLATION MANUAL
SCS--1000 Mini--M Aero SATCOM System
B. Transmission
Telefax calls made by the SCS system are telefax only. Any telephone handset
connected to the telefax machine is for dialing purposes only. To send a facsimile, use
the same dialing sequences as when making a call, either through the default network
service provider or a selected network service provider. Enter the pound (#) key as the
last digit before starting the transmission.
Telefax transmissions normally take 1.5 minutes per standard text page using standard
resolution. Using superfine or halftone resolution doubles the transmission time. To save
time, avoid using a separate cover page. If a call failure should occur while sending a
multi--page document, re--send only the failed pages.
5. Data Service
Access to all system functions is obtained by connecting a PC to the RS--232 port on the TPU
connector panel as shown in Figure 2--5. With a VT100 compatible terminal emulator, such as
Windows 95 -- HyperTerminal, the menu is displayed on the PC screen. The TPU also
provides access to asynchronous data services through its built--in modem capability. The
transmission rate over the satellite is 2.4 kpbs, and any standard PC with a serial port can be
used.
