Dynamic behaviour of AirCom Internet users on long-haul North Atlantic flights

In this paper we present the expected dynamic behaviour of aeronautical communications (AirCom) Internet users and provide the net satellite channel-capacities needed to guarantee the desired QoS. As in our previous works, we focus on one of the most important markets for Internet services offered in aircrafts: the North Atlantic region. According to the expected usage of AirCom Internet services to the average aircrafts' cabin configurations and to the characteristics of the North Atlantic routes, split figures are presented for each aircraft type.
