AERONAUTICAL
TELECOMMUNICATION
DEFINITIONS
 Aeronautical telecommunication service.
A telecommunication service provided for any aeronautical purpose.
 Air-ground communication. Two-way communication between aircraft and stations or locations on
the surface of the earth.
 Air-to-ground communication. One-way communication from aircraft to stations or locations on the
surface of the earth.
 Blind transmission. A transmission from one station to another station in circumstances where two-
way communication cannot be established but where it is believed that the called station is able to
receive the transmission.
 Broadcast. A transmission of information relating to air navigation that is not addressed to a specific
station or stations.
 Duplex. A method in which telecommunication between two stations can take place in both
directions simultaneously.
 Ground-to-air communication. One-way communication from stations or locations on the surface
of the earth to aircraft.
TIME SYSTEM
 Universal Co-ordinated Time (UTC) shall be used
by all stations in the aeronautical
telecommunication service. Midnight shall be
designated as 24.00 for the end of the day and
00.00 for the beginning of the day.
 A date-time group shall consist of six figures,
the first two figures representing the date of
the month and the last four figures the hours and
minutes in UTC.
DIVISION OF SERVICE
The international aeronautical telecommunication

service shall be divided into four parts:
 1) aeronautical fixed service;
 2) aeronautical mobile service;
 3) aeronautical radio navigation service
 4) aeronautical broadcasting service.
HOURS OF SERVICE
Whenever necessary and practicable, the
Competent Authority shall give notification of any
change in the normal hours of service, before such
a change is effected, to the aeronautical
telecommunication agencies designated to receive
this information by other Administrations
concerned. Such changes shall also, whenever
necessary, be promulgated in NOTAM.
EXTENSIONS OF SERVICE AND
CLOSING
DOWN OF STATIONS
 Stations of the international aeronautical telecommunication service shall
extend their normal hours of service as required to provide for traffic
necessary for flight operation.
 Before closing down, a station shall notify its intention to all other
stations with which it is in direct communication, confirm that an extension
of service is not required and advise the time of re-opening if other than
its normal hours of service.
 When it is working regularly in a network on a common circuit, a station
shall notify its intention of closing down either to the control station, if
any, or to all stations in the network. It shall continue watch for two
minutes and may then close down if it has received no call during this period
 Stations with other than continuous hours of operation, engaged in, or
expected to become engaged in distress, urgency, unlawful interference, or
interception traffic, shall extend their normal hours of service to provide
the required support to those communications.
AERONAUTICAL MOBILE SERVICE
VOICE COMMUNICATIONS
The categories of messages handled by the aeronautical mobile service

and the order of priority in the establishment of communications and the
transmission of messages shall be in accordance with the following table.
Message category and Radiotelephony order of priority signal
a) Distress calls, distress messages and distress traffic MAYDAY
b) Urgency messages, including PAN, PAN messages preceded by the or
PAN, PAN medical transports signal MEDICAL
c) Communications relating to direction finding —
d) Flight safety messages —
e) Meteorological messages —
f) Flight regularity messages —
RADIO TELEPHONY
PROCEDURE
 Language to be used
 Word spelling in radiotelephony
 Transmission of numbers in radiotelephony
 Transmitting technique
 Composition of messages
 Calling
 Test procedures
 Exchange of communications
LANGUAGE TO BE USED
 The air-ground radiotelephony communications shall be
conducted in the language normally used by the station on the
ground or in the English language.
 The English language shall be available, on request from any
aircraft station, at all stations on the ground serving designated
airports and routes used by international air services.
WORD SPELLING IN
RADIOTELEPHONY
 Word spelling in
radiotelephony. When
proper names, service
abbreviations and words of
which the spelling is
doubtful are spelled out in
radiotelephony the alphabet
TRANSMISSION OF
NUMBERS IN
RADIOTELEPHONY
TRANSMITTING TECHNIQUE
 enunciate each word clearly and distinctly;
 maintain an even rate of speech not exceeding 100 words per minute. When a
message is transmitted to an aircraft and its contents need to be recorded the
speaking rate should be at a slower rate to allow for the writing process. A
slight pause preceding and following numerals makes them easier to
understand;
 maintain the speaking volume at a constant level;
 be familiar with the microphone operating techniques particularly in relation
to the maintenance of a constant distance from the microphone if a
modulator with a constant level is not used;
 suspend speech temporarily if it becomes necessary to turn the head away
from the microphone.
COMPOSITION
