Air Traffic Management activities in ETSI

Air Traffic Management activities in ETSI Jørgen FriisDeputy Director-General Submission Date:June 27, 2008

Highlight of Current Activities (1) • ETSI’s most current activities on ATM • ETSI is responding to the EU Single European Sky (SES) initiative (Interoperability regulation). ETSI will produce Community Specifications in response to Mandates from the European Commission in co-operation with CEN, CENELEC other civil aviation organizations like EUROCAE and EUROCONTROL • ETSI is developing aeronautical communications standards (VHF, UHF communications). The SES initiative is a big one, but doesn’t cover the whole sector. ETSI also produces standards under the RTTED and EMC directives for ATM equipment and investigating its possible contribution into airworthiness certification managed by EASA • ETSI membership includes leading companies and organizations from this industry sector (Boeing, EADS, Fraport, SELEX, DFS, CAA UK etc.)

Challenges • The key challenge is that the work in aeronautical sector requires significant co-operation efforts inside and outside Europe. • Especially co-operation inside Europe within the Framework of the SES initiative: • European Commission; • EUROCAE; • EUROCONTROL; • EASA; • CEN; • CENELEC • the need to co-ordinate with military institutions. • Outside Europe ETSI’s partners are ICAO, ITU and RTCA.

Next Steps/Actions • ETSI is looking for strengthening its relationships with partners in other parts of the world on ATM related activities.

Single European Sky Regulations (SES) Framework Regulation Regulation on the provision of air Navigation service Regulation on the organisation and use of the airspace Regulation on the interoperability • The SES legislative package: • Framework Regulation: (EC) 549/2004 • Service provision Regulation (EC) 550/2004 • Airspace Regulation (EC) 551/2004 • Interoperability Regulation (EC) 552/2004 • all published in OJEU L96, 31.3.2004

Interoperability-Regulation (1) • Is an immediately binding part of the implementation of the European Aviation policy according Article 80 of the Treaty • Defines „Essential Requirements (ER)“ for systems, constituents and procedures of the European Air Traffic Management network (EATMN) • Empowers European Commission together with the Single European Sky Committee to enact more detailed binding Community legislation (e.g. to refine Essential Requirements, to ease the implementation of new technologies or operational concepts)

Interoperability-Regulation (2) • Extends the European Standardization System to cover Air Traffic Management through „Community Specifications“ (CS): • CS are produced by the ESO in cooperation (mandatory!) with EUROCAE in response to a mandate issued by the Commission according 98/34 procedure, or • In case of matters of ‚operational coordination between air navigation service providers‘ by EUROCONTROL in response to a mandate issued by the Commission • Removes the exemption of civil used ATM equipment from the provisions of the R&TTE Directive (indirectly through the transition arrangements)
