Automatic Message Switching System (AMSS)

Introduction

This course is very important for the trainees who have experience in telecommunication operation to know and be able to implement the transition process from using old and current telecommunication systems especially in the part of aeronautical fixed service to using and dealing with modern telecommunication system (Ground-Ground) element of the ATN (Aeronautical Telecommunication Network) especially AMHS application and its components and this will be done through three stages.

Objectives

By the end of the course the Trainee shall be able to:

• Define AMHS.
