  1. Surveillance Data Processing, Networks and Validation Tools for ADS-B applications Christos Rekkas ADS Programme Manager EUROCONTROL ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  2. ADS Programme Planning (Ground Surveillance applications) (Airborne Surveillance applications) ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  3. Key deliverables • Internationally harmonised Requirements • Key for interoperability and efficiency • Safety Case (including separation min considerations) • Business Case • Consultation with manufacturers, ANSPs and Users • Infrastructure Specs or prototypes • Ground infrastructure • Surveillance Data Processing and Distribution (ARTAS) • Surveillance Network equipment (RMCDE) • Airborne Surveillance Data Fusion (co-operation with AIRBUS, Boeing & avionics industry) • Validation tools and Platforms • Surveillance and Communication Simulation and Analysis tools • ADS-B Validation Testbed (AVT) • Validation activitiesat EEC or at various ECAC sites, proving the benefits • CRISTAL • Implementation planning ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  4. Development of ARTAS for Mode S and ADS-B • ARTAS V7 is capable of processing Surveillance data from classical radars, Mode S and ADS-B • Development phases • ARTAS V7 Specifications (completed) • ARTAS V7 Development (ongoing) • V7.0 development (July 2003 -> July 2004) • V7.1 development (July 2004 -> May 2005) • Both Unix and Linux versions May 2003 July 2003 Dec 2003 July 2004 Oct 2004 May 2005 Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 V7.0L (Beta) Contract Signature ARTAS V7 Specifications ARTAS V7.0 Beta ARTAS V7.0U (FAT) ARTAS V7.1U (FAT) V7.1L (FAT) ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  5. Surveillance Network Equipment • Upgrade of Surveillance network equipment (RMCDEs) to support ADS-B functionality • Operational purpose • Surveillance Front-End Processor for SDPD systems • Access Node for Surveillance Networks • Benefits • Flexibility of surveillance data formats • Phased implementation of the ASTERIX format • Optimal use of communications resources (networks) • Existing systems • 39 Operational, 29 test, 40 sites • Prototype development • Specs by June 2004 • Development completed by end 2004 ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  6. TIS-B ServerObjectives • Support validation of TIS-B services for Package 1 as part of the ADS-B/TIS-B Validation Testbed (AVT) • Provide a prototype TIS-B Server offering the following capabilities • uplink tracks and not radar plots • support both gap filler and full picture uplink services • handle multiple TIS-B link technologies • handle multiple TIS-B Ground Stations and Service Volumes • Each SV is associated with a separate quality of service • be compatible with the services offered by ARTAS • support various ASTERIX standards • Acquire source code and documentation • enabling modifications and experimentation • distributable to ADS Programme Stakeholders • Development to be completed in September 2004 ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  7. Surveillance Analysis Tools (SASS-C) Development work in the period 2003-2005 Multi-source Acquisition Suite Surveillance Data MAS TRES Trajectory Reconstruction & Evaluation suite Simulation Suite Data Sensors Description SMART SCAS Surveillance Coverage Analysis Suite Screening Files ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  8. ADS-B Validation Testbed (AVT) • AVT is a validation platform for Package I surveillance applications and infrastructure • provides the complete ATC system chain from pilot to controller • allows controller and pilot participation • provides a realistic and controllable surveillance environment to test Package I applications. • handling both live and simulated aircraft • including link error performance simulation • serves also as reference platform for surveillance components and tools • supporting standard surveillance interfaces, particularly ASTERIX • tool for technical investigations on specific surveillance issues • for example tracking performance • AVT is funded by the EUROCONTROL ADS Programme but is also available for use by third parties. • Installations exist at Brétigny and Arlanda, and more are foreseen for 2004 ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  9. AVT Phased Implementation • Phase I :Baseline air to ground functionality • Separate ADS-B and SSR tracking • Platform operational: November 2002 • Demonstrated in Malmo, Sweden (Jan 03) • Phase II: Support for En-route and TMA ground surveillance applications • Full ADS-B and SSR data fusion • Platform operational: October 2003 • Demonstrated in Arlanda, Sweden (Nov 03) • Phase III : AVT for ATSAW and multilateration • Support for Airborne Situational Awareness • Use of wide area multilateration, TIS-B, and ADS-C • Platform operational: End 2004 • Phase IV : AVT for full set of Package I applications • Support for Spacing application and airport surface operations • Use of airborne SDPD and airport tracker • Platform operational: End 2005 ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  10. AVT Overview MCS/eCockpit EAT/EDEP A-SDPD Allows reliable and efficient validation eCockpit ASAS TN 19-21/04/04

  11. CRISTAL – Co-opeRative ValidatIon of Surveillance Techniques and AppLications of Package I • Validation exercisesin partnership with individual ANSPs, industry and other stakeholders, in various ECAC sites • “Crystallisation effect” • Targeting local situations of interest – Driven by the stakeholder operational needs • Wide range of activities (operational, technical, safety, cost-benefit, separation mimima etc.), as appropriate • Evolution to pre-operational level depends on the stakeholder plans and the trial progress • Cover both Stream 1 (Ground Surveillance applications) and also Stream 2 (Airborne Surveillance applications) ASAS TN 19-21/04/04
