Methods and systems for vehicle broadband connection to a data network |
摘要 |
Methods and systems for communicating data between an aircraft and a ground-based unit are provided. The method includes integrating a Broadband over Power Line (BPL) module and inductive coupler into the ground-based unit, communicatively coupling the aircraft to the ground-based unit, initiating a Broadband over Power Line (BPL) link between the aircraft and the ground-based unit when power is supplied to the aircraft, and updating data stored in the aircraft with data received from the ground-based unit. |

1. A method for communicating data between an aircraft and a ground-based unit, said method comprising:
integrating a Broadband over Power Line (BPL) module with an inductive coupler into a single device by coupling the BPL module directly to the inductive coupler; coupling the integrated BPL module and inductive coupler to a power line of the ground-based unit; communicatively coupling the aircraft to the ground-based unit; initiating a Broadband over Power Line (BPL) link between the aircraft and the ground-based unit when power is supplied to the aircraft; and updating data stored in the aircraft with data received from the ground-based unit. |
