Overview (resum en anglès):
Aircraft must fly in safe airspace and this safety is achieved thanks to the information that providers offer to air traffic control services. In the case of Spain, the service responsible for providing this information is ENAIRE.

The growth of aviation from its first take-off to the present day has meant that the infrastructure necessary for safe development has had to undergo transformations. This is due to the fact that at the beginning, when this complex was created, traffic density was not as high as it is today. Aware of the need for improvement, the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) set up the FANS ("Future Air Navigation Services") committee in the early 1980s. This board, after a decade of studies and several meetings, concluded that they had to change the concept of voice-based aeronautical communication to an exchange of information via data link. This idea was called CNS/ATM (Communications, Navigation, Surveillance / Air Traffic Management) and this technology was intended to automate air traffic management and optimise it in order to support the growing demand worldwide.

The aim of this thesis is to reach as many users as possible who are interested in this technology applied to the world of aviation.

This project consists of three main parts, the first one will consist of the explanation of how the ANS (Air Navigation Services) world works and the organisation behind ICAO. Once this topic has been dealt with, the second and most important part, which will deal with data link, will follow. Here data link, its applications in the aerospace sector and its different technologies will be explained. Finally, the future of these technologies will be discussed and a bet will be made on which one will predominate over the others.
