Logistics of the next mini-conferences
• Intro and/or summary:
• Exam material you need to know for exam
• Context information
• No break
• Hand in essay and powerpoint files on Monday before your session: mail
them to Joost Ellerboek (j.ellerbroek@tudelft.nl) and Jacco Hoekstra
(j.m.hoekstra@tudelft.nl) Feedback mail will be sent with required
corrections/tips

3 leading conferences in ATM
• FAA/Eurocontrol Air Traffic Management Seminar
(ATM Seminar) every two years, so every odd year,
alternates US/Europe
Differences:
• ATM seminar aimed at ATM professionals
• ICRAT aimed at ATM academics
• SIDs: aimed at European ATM research

Air Traffic Control over the years
• Watching the scope and talking to traffic

Innovation in ATM is hard
• ATM is a global system
• Revolutionary, global vs. evolutionary, local change
• Politics/Stakeholders:
• role change
• unions

Politics, money, interests play a role
• ‘Stakeholders”:
• Airlines
• Airports
• Air Traffic Service providers
• Authorities
• TCAS introduction
• ASAS means:
• Airborne Separation Assurance System 1993-2005
• Airborne Separation Assistance System 2003-2015
• Aircraft Surveillance Application System 2014- now?
• Future: …….?

ATM solutions: Concept, technology
• Three axes:
• Task allocation and integration of air and ground
• Task allocation human vs. system
• Task timing (lookahead time): strategic vs tactical

Definitions used in CD&R
• Strategic prevention by airspace & procedures (intrinsic)

Why airborne?
Distributed vs. central

Coordination: Implicit/explicit

Coordination: Priority/No priority
Priority rules:
• Halves the workload,
• Lower risk of unstable situations due to less maneuvering
• Easy to communicate to pilots/controllers
• One actor solves conflict completely
No priority:
• Introduces fail-safe resolutions into system
• Better at solving congested airspaces due to conflict propagation
Or use combination:
• First priority (lookahead times 3-7 minutes), then co-operative
(lookahead times within 5 minutes)
18 |
Coordination: multi-aircraft conflicts?
When experiencing a conflict with more than one aircraft at the
same time, this is called a multi-aircraft conflict. Intruder might not
be aware and have a single aircraft conflict.
• Sequential:
Focus on first conflict, let other aircraft take care of second
conflict until then

Separation Standards ICAO Doc
4444
• Radar separation: 5 nm - 1000 ft 0.1 nm - 100 ft
• En-route: mostly 5 nautical miles
(sometimes 10 nm)
• TMA: 3 nm
• When aircraft within distance less than 5 nautical miles and less
than 1000 ft altitude difference, this is called a loss-of-
separation
