Aeronautical Telecommunication Network (ATN) has been developed by International
Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to integrate air-ground and ground-ground data com-
munications for aeronautical applications into a single network serving air traffic control
and aeronautical operational communications. The current ICAO ATN model specifies a
standalone network with its own protocols, which requires building an expensive separate
network for air-ground and ground-ground communications. However, the cost of build-
ing ATN can be reduced if it can use existing networks wherever possible, such as the
