Call how to achieve on the plane? Operator, how is it charged?-Aircraft on call-IT information Call how to achieve on the plane? Operator, how is it charged?
Theverge website reported that the call is allowed to fly at an altitude of 35,000 feet, has recently become a hot topic in the media, which fuse is the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman's remarks. However, in advance of the opening of this policy, how to operate and how is the issue to be resolved. Following is the abstract of the article:
At altitudes below 10,000 feet following the FCC allowed passengers on the plane after the use of portable electronic products, the Agency is currently studying whether it should lift the ban on phone on the plane. In fact, the FCC sought public opinion on this issue is now, and to make decisions accordingly. Against a large number of people and airlines called on the plane, on the grounds that the calls would reduce "comfort", disturb other passengers. In addition, some members of Congress have submitted a bill banning call on the plane.
However, in this matter pending at the same time, two problems need to be addressed, is that calls on how to operate the plane? More important issues, how can telecoms operators to charge passengers?
Pico cellular systems and Gogo system
You might wonder, why can't it be on the plane, the normal use of mobile phones. As the mobile phone network coverage area is mainly the ground signal horizontal transfer in order to cover as much as possible. Cell phone signals cannot be vertical transmission, for commercial aircraft when on the other hand, its altitude and far exceeds the cell phone signal towers, communication signal could not be received from the ground. Therefore, if you want it all, you have to use special techniques and systems.
When people talk about this topic focuses primarily on whether the Government should be allowed to call the plane, but the concerns of the FCC is whether it should be allowed to achieve its plane called a technical. In fact, this technology is already in use by international airlines for many years. The technology consisted of a small cell phone signal masts, it can receive signals from the ground. However, this is called "Pico-cellular" (picocell) system in the United States is prohibited. Countries that support the technology, and also encountered problems during the operation, such as when international flights the aircraft flying to the United States Hou, you must close the Pico-cellular.
Pico-cellular system would allow passengers to use cell phones, dial your own phone number to speak to other users, do not need to use a different phone number, or VoIp services (such as Skype). Pico-cellular system other electronic equipment and components need to be installed on the plane, FCC may interfere with the aircraft navigation system, and banned in the United States.
However, the system isn't the only thing that slightly to achieve on a plane phone technology. In fact, the FCC has granted other programmes. Gogo WiFi service provider announced in November that the plane, they will publish a iOS and Android mobile application user-oriented, can achieve this app users to make calls and send text messages on the plane to install Gogo equipment. With slight cellular systems, Gogo call system also allows users to use their own phone number.
Gogo says as Gogo based application, can be used on any plane to install Gogo WiFi service, so it doesn't need FCC approval. "The technology already exists, we just used it, Gogo problem is to get air support, rather than the FCC. "Gogo said.
In addition, the Gogo claims that, in addition to voice calls, and send the company system also supports text messaging. Therefore, even if the airline prohibits voice telephony, mobile phone users can text. The company said, voice call functions require private aircraft operators and airlines international "nod".
Charge standard: international roaming or local calls
Pico-cellular system mobile phone users may be asked by the minute to pay roaming fees, similar to current international long distance roaming charges. United Kingdom, Virgin Atlantic Airways AeroMobile services only to United Kingdom telecom operator O2 and Vodafone open call rate is 1 pound per minute, texting is each 20 pence, and at the same time 6 air passengers are only allowed to use this service.
United States major telecom operators to call charges were kept on the plane. However, Gogo said its service will be launched next year, fees will be the same as terrestrial.
At this stage, technical or regulatory hurdles could not decide whether to allow passengers on the plane, called the main factor, the decision in the hands of airlines. In its statement, the FCC clearly states: "in the end, if the FCC adopts new rules, it will be to meet the airlines ' willingness to subject listen to public opinion, to comply with Federal Aviation Administration and United States policies and regulations of the Ministry worked out. ”
Call is allowed on the plane, among which involves carriers, airlines and passengers interests. As can be seen from the opposing FCC declaration, this is by no means one of the things that can be determined solely by the airlines. Airlines will usually act in accordance with principles to maximize business benefits, they may not have lost a potential customer. When we consider the modern intelligent devices, especially smartphones when impact on behavior in our society, we can not only see the negative effects. After all, the technology exists, but some people want to use it.
飞机上如何能实现打电话？运营商如何收费？ - 飞机上打电话 - IT资讯飞机上如何能实现打电话？运营商如何收费？
据theverge网站报道，是否允许乘飞机在3.5万英尺的高空打电话，最近成为媒体热议的话题，其导火线就是美国联邦通信委员会（FCC）主席的一番言论。不过，在开放这项政策之前，如何来操作及如何收费是亟待解决的问题。以下为文章摘要：
继FCC允许乘客在飞行高度低于1万英尺飞机上使用便携式电子产品之后，该机构目前正在研究是否应解除飞机上打电话的禁令。事实上，FCC现在正在就此问题征求民意，并依此来做最终决定。有大批市民和航空公司反对在飞机上打电话，理由是打电话会降低飞机上的“舒适度”，打扰到其他乘客。此外，部分国会议员也已提交了禁止在飞机上打电话的法案。
不过，在这件事悬而未决的同时，亟需解决的两个问题是：飞机上打电话如何来操作？更为重要的问题，电信运营商如何来向乘客收费呢？
微微蜂窝系统和Gogo系统
你可能会惊奇，手机为什么不能在飞机上正常使用了。由于目前手机网络主要覆盖区域是地面，信号都是横向传输，以便覆盖到尽可能多的地区。手机信号无法垂直传输，另一方面对于商用飞机来时，它的飞行高度又远远超过了手机信号发射塔，因此无法接收到来自地面的通信信号。因此，如果想要这一切发生，就必须使用特殊技术和系统。
人们在讨论这个话题时把主要焦点放在了是否政府应该允许在飞机打电话，而FCC关心的却是是否应该批准能实现飞机上打电话的某种技术。事实上，这项技术已经被国际航空公司使用了多年。这项技术包括了一个小型手机信号接收塔，它可以接收来自地面的信号。不过，这种被称为“微微蜂窝”（picocell）系统在美国是被禁止的。而支持该技术的国家，在操作中也会遇到问题，比如当国际航班飞机在飞至美国后，必须关闭微微蜂窝。
微微蜂窝系统能允许乘客使用手机，拨打自己手机号码与地面其他用户通话，不需要使用其他手机号码，或者VoIp服务（比如Skype）。因为微微蜂窝系统需要在飞机上安装其他电子设备和部件，FCC担心可能会干扰飞机导航系统，因此禁止它在美国使用。
不过，微微系统并不是唯一能实现在飞机上打电话的技术。事实上，FCC已经批准了其他方案。飞机WiFi服务提供商Gogo今年11月份宣布，它们将发布一款面向iOS和安卓用户的移动应用，这款应用能够实现用户在安装Gogo设备的飞机上打电话和发短信。跟微微蜂窝系统一样，Gogo系统也可以让用户使用自己的电话号码打电话。
Gogo公司表示，由于Gogo基于应用软件，任何安装Gogo WiFi的飞机上都可以使用这项服务，因此它不需要FCC批准。“这项技术已经存在，我们只是使用了它而已，Gogo面临的问题是获取航空公司的支持，而非FCC。”Gogo表示。
此外，Gogo公司声称，除了语音通话外，该公司系统还支持文字短信发送。因此，即使航空公司禁止语音电话，手机用户也可以发短信。该公司表示，语音通话功能需要获得私人飞机运营商和国际航空公司的“点头”。
收费标准：国际漫游or本地通话
微微蜂窝系统可能要求手机用户按分钟支付漫游费，跟目前的国际长途漫游费相似。英国维珍大西洋航空公司AeroMobile服务目前只对英国电信运营商O2和沃达丰开放，打电话收费是每分钟1英镑，发短信是每条20便士，且在同一时间只允许6名飞机乘客使用这项服务。
美国主要电信运营商对飞机上打电话收费问题都守口如瓶。不过，Gogo表示，其服务将在明年推出，收费标准将跟地面通话一样。
在现阶段，技术或者监管障碍可能已不是决定是否允许乘客在飞机上打电话的主要因素，决定权在航空公司手中。FCC在其声明中明确指出：“最终，如果FCC采用新规，它将是在满足航空公司意愿前提下，听取民意，遵从联邦航空局和美国交通部政策法规制定出来的。”
是否允许在飞机上打电话，这中间牵涉运营商、航空公司和乘客三者的利益。从反对FCC声明中可以看出，这绝非是一件可以由航空公司单独决定的事情。航空公司通常会按照商业利益最大化原则来行事，他们可能也不愿意流失潜在客户。当我们在考虑现代智能设备，尤其是智能手机对我们社会行为产生的影响时，我们不能只看到它的负面影响。毕竟，技术已经存在，只是有些人想要去使用它而已。
