Digital infrastructure to provide adaptable and resource-aware digital communication, navigation, and surveillance (CNS). High performance digital communications securely and reliably distribute critical data and information. A combination of state-of-the-art distributed and centralized networks will enable collection and dissemination of airspace information to support and extend both new and existing airspace functions. This network will support seamless edge computing services, air-to-air connectivity, an air-ground connectivity. The precision of navigation and guidance will be increased using multiple high integrity navigational aid sources. Operators will be provided with a real-time operational view of both cooperative and non-cooperative traffic through a multi-sensor surveillance and tracking network approved for safety critical applications.
