Abstract: Nowadays an increasing demand to use mobile telephones devices in aircraft flights is being acknowledged, both in commercial and in aviation general flights. 2G and 3G mobile communications networks have a great penetration in terrestrial surface of populated areas. Nevertheless land mobile networks have not been planned to operate within the air space. The main objective of this project has been to collect GSM/GPRS signal level measurement samples in the air space used by general aviation, transmitted by terrestrial base stations. Subsequently the values of obtained signal have been analyzed in order to extract conclusions on the applicability of the current mobile terrestrial communications on board of aircraft in general aviation.
Keywords: GSM, GPRS, measurement, base station antennas, data acquisition, aeronautics, data visualization
