DREAM is an advanced solution on the market for data link communications testing and modeling. DREAM is used in support of Europe and US datalink capacity evaluations and deployment planning as well as by major aircraft manufactures to improve validation activities.

Why use DREAM?

■  Verify whether datalink is working in just a few clicks

■  Test datalink from inside the maintenance hangar and within the cockpit

■  Simplify test process: 1-person maintenance operation

■  Reduce the number of pilot reports generated

■  Eliminate need to connect to operational VHF networks

■  Verify your ATSU/CMU or VDR firmware update

How does it work?

DREAM is a versatile and fully automated platform for enterprise-wide modeling and testing of wireless data communications systems used for CNS/ATM.

With an unrivaled level of realism and sophistication, it models large portions of airspaces, involving thousands of moving aircraft exchanging data with ATC or airline systems through widely-deployed ground infrastructures – all in a fully-controlled lab environment.

The model can also connect with real aircraft and ground equipment to put technologies and systems to the test in their targeted operational conditions.

A highly representative operational test environment ensures technologies and equipment are sufficiently mature prior to industrialization and large-scale deployment.
