After TPED tolerance STCs for the use of Wifi aboard A320 family, B737, and ATR 42 / 72 aircrafts, PMV Engineering has completed its TPED STC collection with B777 models. This last EASA STC (ref. 10061590) is aligned with the latest EASA requirements and Eurocae/RTCA standards and allow gate to gate operation (including all phases of flight without restrictions) for the airlines.
The objective of the change is to demonstrate a Transmitting Portable Equipment Device (T-PED) Tolerance for the use of Wifi onboard by passengers and cabin/cockpit crews.
The T-PEDs usage is limited to WIFI (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless standards 2,4GHz and 5GHz).
The airline benefits is to prepare the aircraft for the use of Wifi onboard for all phases of flight. This can be done at any time before the installation of the WLAN system.
Our significant aircraft equipment database will most likely avoid additional testing.
TPED tolerance on B777.
The analysis of T-Ped interference are based on ED130, DO294C and DO307 documents.
The T-PEDs usage by passengers in the cabin or by flight crew in the cockpit is limited to WIFI (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless standards 2,4GHz and 5GHz).
Other wireless connectivity standards (e.g. GSM) are not covered by this STC.
The T-PED Aircraft tolerance is planned to be demonstrated for all flight phases, including critical ones, hence both back door and front door coupling are considered.
