Aircraft communication system which provides internal communications between pilots in an aircraft and external communications between pilots and operators in ground tower with them. It is very important equipment in terms of mission and safety. It wouldn't meet performance requirements with only functions of transmission and receiving of signals. It should provide highly clear voice quality without any noise. This paper analyzes the cause of noise during internal communications and summarizes the design changes applying single point ground concept to solve the problem. It also describes the results of fight test to verify the design changes.

This paper is to demonstrate the effectiveness of one point grounding in support of ESS protection. One point grounding provides for the dispatching of excess energy for protection of switching equipment and personnel from lightning discharge hazards and for a natural sink for noise from atmospheric lightning and power transients. In most ESS installations there are a number of different items that must be maintained at a common ground potential for safety, fault protection or noise reduction. The items typically consist of power systems, heating and ventilating systems, distributing frames, repeating equipmets, switching equipments, etc. Grounding system of an ESS Office is most effective when all the ground points are connected to a single, common earth. The one point grounding prvides a common reference potential, keeping all the items of telecommunications facility free from the earth current and voltage hazards.
