AGENDA l Background l l l Project l l l CASCADE scope ITP procedure Project partners Objectives Method Results Next steps and conclusions

CASCADE Scope l Ground Surveillance Applications (ADS-B-out) l l l In a non-radar environment In a radar environment On the airport surface Airborne Derived Data 2008 ADS-B Receiver Airborne Surveillance Applications (ADS-B-in ATSAW) l l Situational awareness on the surface Airborne situational awareness 2011 Visual separation on approach In Trail Procedure

ATSA-ITP Standardization l Operational Services and Environment Definitions (OSED) - defined by the Requirement Focus Group (RFG) l 10 th of March 2008 – SPR-INTEROP ED-159/DONNN issued for FRAC l 18 th April 2008 – FRAC comment dead line l 24 th of April 2008 – Planned FRAC approval at SC 186 meeting in Washington DC

ATSA-ITP Objective l ATSA-ITP: Airborne Traffic Situational Awareness In Trail Procedure in procedural airspace l Improved Flight Economy and Flight Safety/Comfort by increasing the opportunities for Flight Level changes through l l use of new longitudinal separation standard during climb/descend increased pilot awareness of climb/descend opportunities

ATSA-ITP Procedure REFERENCE BLOCKING AIRCRAFT Desired Altitude FL 360 FL 350 Standard Separation FL 340 Standard Separation 1. Climb is desired 2. Standard climb ? Blocked 3. ITP ? ATSA-ITP aircraft ADS-B out (consistent with ITP) No specific ADS-B requirements Assessment, request, clearance and reassessment 4. Assessment ok ! Approved

Results 1 (2) l Technical feasibility l l l Prototypes and current technical equipment support the ITP procedure Detailed performance analysis is ongoing Operational acceptability l l l Procedure appreciated, well understood and correctly applied Airborne prototype HMI found “easy to use” Current controller HMI is acceptable to support ITP Clarification of procedure usage (input to ATSA-ITP standard) Agreement on phraseology by controllers and flight crew l Strong preference for using CPDLC (free text is acceptable and pre-formated msg preferred) Procedure design and usability allows for a small amount of controller and flight crew training

Results 2 (2) l Efficiency, Capacity and Economics l l l Safety l l Benefit analysis result consolidation is ongoing Results expected shortly Safety issues within the scope of procedure clarification have been considered throughout phase 1 of the project Identified areas for further attention l l Use of third party Aircraft Identification over voice is an issue ITP clearance over voice is time consuming Existing conflict probe function in relation to the new separation minima Investigations for ITP specific controller HMI functions

Next Steps l 2008 Q 2 -Q 3 Results consolidation of phase 1 l 2008 Q 3 -2009 Q 2 flight trials l 2009 Q 3 Phase 2 - preparation for revenue Pioneer airline project for ITP Pioneer trials Operations Preparation for revenue flight trials Result consolidation Q 4 2007 Q 1 Q 2 Q 3 2008 Q 4 Q 1 Q 2 Q 3 2009 Q 4 Q 1 Q 2 Q 3 2010 Q 4

Conclusions CRISTAL-ITP: l Made the world’s first flight trial of the ATSA-ITP procedure l Successfully achieved clarification of how the ITP procedure can be applied in the NAT airspace l Provided important input to the ATSA-ITP standard l Shown Technical Feasibility for airborne systems l Created Operational Acceptance by controllers and flight crew l Developed and improved the procedure phraseology l l CRISTAL ITP agreement on Voice and CPDLC phraseology Continues towards implementation
