Abstract: Engineering Brief (EB) 97 provides installation guidance and technical information to airport operators, Airport District Offices (ADOs), and architectural and engineering (A&E) companies about the use of AeroMACS technology for communication and control purposes related to the safety and regularity of flight on the airport surface. Note, this EB is applicable only for the non-federal AeroMACS field trial project. A revised EB, updated with the lessons learned from the field trials, will be issued in the future that will be applicable to the AeroMACS projects at other airports.
