VHF Data Link
A VHF radio technology providing the physical and link-layer transport for digital datalink communications between aircraft and ground stations, using dedicated data channels within the VHF aeronautical band separate from…
Protocol
Virtual Private Network
A virtual private network is a logical network connection that uses encryption and authenticated tunneling to carry traffic over another network.
Concept/Framework
VoLTE
A protocol delivering voice calls as packet-switched IP data over the same 4G LTE packet network that carries data traffic, depending on the Evolved Packet Core's all-IP architecture rather than…
