L-Band Digital Link
VDL3 shifted to L-Band
TDMA frame structure with 120 ms frames and 5
slots/frame (like GSM)
Some of the slots can be allocated for voice. Others
are used for data.

L-DACS2 Evolution
GSM
UAT
AMACS
L-DACS2
Based on GSM, UAT (Universal Access Transceiver), AMACS (Allpurpose multi-carrier aviation communication system)
GSM PHY, AMACS MAC, UAT Frame Structure
Both UAT and GSM use GMSK
GSM works at 900, 1800, 1900 MHz
L-DACS2 is in lower L-band close to 900MHz
Tested concept
Price benefit of GSM components
Uses basic GSM not, later enhanced versions like EDGE, GPRS,
These can be added later.
