1. Presentation For: Use of Cell Phones Onboard March 28, 2001 Wireless Products Today & Tomorrow

2. Services Travelers WantBoth In The Terminal & The Cabin • Easy high-speed Internet access • VPN Intranet Connection • Secure Access To E-Mail • Mobile Phone Access • Customizable and local web services • Local services such as printing and fax • Entertainment such as gaming and videos • Familiar set of Internet-oriented communications services • Help Desk support Note: Cost associated with these services are easily defensible as a business expense

3. Hurdles To Wireless Device In-Flight Use PART 22--PUBLIC MOBILE SERVICES Table of Contents Subpart H Cellular Radiotelephone Service Sec. 22.925 Prohibition on airborne operation of cellular telephones. SECTION 91.21 PORTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICES. Airlines, Avionics Integrators & Service Providers System Standards, Safety Testing and Certification Process

4. PART 22--PUBLIC MOBILE SERVICES Table of Contents Subpart H Cellular Radiotelephone Service Sec. 22.925 Prohibition on airborne operation of cellular telephones. Cellular telephones installed in or carried aboard airplanes, balloons or any other type of aircraft must not be operated while such aircraft are airborne (not touching the ground). When any aircraft leaves the ground, all cellular telephones on board that aircraft must be turned off. The following notice must be posted on or near each cellular telephone installed in any aircraft: ``The use of cellular telephones while this aircraft is airborne is prohibited by FCC rules, and the violation of this rule could result in suspension of service and/or a fine. The use of cellular telephones while this aircraft is on the ground is subject to FAA regulations.''

5. There is a process to obtain a waiver from this regulation, if successful cellular phone use in-flight would be permitted. The reason that this rule exists is because the use of mobile phones while in flight would cause problems with ground based towers. Installing a pico cell (cell base station in small box) within a aircraft and require all handsets to use low power and talk only to the aircraft pico cell would prevent mobile phones from interfering with ground based towers. The pico cell would use the existing Aircraft Air To Ground System At this time only GSM operating systems have this ability, TDMA and CDMA operating systems will need to be changed to include this ability. G3 and other upcoming operating systems will most likely have this ability

6. Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, no person may operate, nor may any operator or pilot in command of an aircraft allow the operation of, any portable electronic device on any of the following U.S.- registered civil aircraft: • (1) Aircraft operated by a holder of an air carrier operating certificate or an operating certificate; or (2) Any other aircraft while it is operated under IFR. • Paragraph (a) of this section does not apply to– • (1) Portable voice recorders; • (2) Hearing aids; • (3) Heart pacemakers; • (4) Electric shavers; or • (5) Any other portable electronic device that the operator of the aircraft has determined will not cause interference with the navigation or communication system of the aircraft on which it is to be used. • In the case of an aircraft operated by a holder of an air carrier operating certificate or an operating certificate, the determination required by paragraph (b)(5) of this section shall be made by thatoperator of the aircraft on which the particular device is to be used. In the case of other aircraft, the determination may be made by the pilot in command or other operator of the aircraft. Effective Date Note: At 54 FR 34291, • August 18, 1989, Sec. 91.21 was revised effective August 18, 1990, as set out above. Sec. 91.21 Portable electronic devices

7. Sec. 91.21 Portable electronic devices The FAA does not disallow the use of electronic devices while the aircraft is in-flight excluding take off and landing. The Airlines are responsible for certifying electronic devices. They need to be sure that these devices do not cause interference with avionics system or safety of the flight Testing electronic devices for Electrical Magnetic Interference, proving that there is no threat to avionics systems, will give support to Airline decision makers who can then certify electronic devices for use. Any testing should be done with the FAA as a party to the testing

8. Airlines, Avionics Integrators & Service Providers Certification Process Expensive and time consuming process System Standards Currently there are no standards in place Safety Testing Each Aircraft type will require testing and certification
