Mobile phones on aircraft
I am a radio coverage planner for a well known UK mobile (cellphone)operator.
Which systems on a standard passenger carrying aircraft would be affected by mobile phones ?
Most mobiles operate on frequencies in the 900 and 1800 Mhz regions, with a maximum power output of 2 Watts.
My reason for asking is that I've heard of a future system that will be incorporated into aircraft to enable the use of mobiles at all times, obviously via a satellite link, but still using GSM specs within the airframe.
Any thoughts or comments gratefully acknowledged.
