ASSTAR Overview

The ASSTAR project aims to develop advanced safe separation technologies and algorithms for air traffic control. It involves research objectives supporting introduction by 2010+ and focuses on crossing and passing applications, delegation of separation responsibility, and radar and oceanic environments. The project also covers the definition of supporting procedures, air and ground installation and implementation issues, safety assessment, and impact on regulations.

  1. ASSTAR Overview Jean-Marc Loscos, DSNA Advanced Safe Separation Technologies and Algorithms (ASSTAR) Project Co-ordinator www.asstar.org jean-marc.loscos@aviation-civile.gouv.fr

  2. ASSTAR USER FORUM Advanced Safe Separation Technologies and AlgoRithms ASSTAR is sponsored by The European Commission – Directorate General RTD - within the 6th Framework Programme (contract number AST4-CT-2005-516140). Start: January 2005 End: November 2007

  3. EUROCONTROL Consortium Partners: ANSP, R&D, industry, universities

  4. Project Overview • ASSTAR is a EC Framework 6 STREP • Crossing and Passing Applications • Delegation of separation responsibility • Radar and Oceanic Environments • Research objectives support introduction in 2010+ time frame • ASAS manoeuvre design and execution • Definition of supporting procedures • Air & Ground installation & implementation issues • Benefits • Safety assessment • Impact on Regulations

  5. Operational concept • Airborne separation category according to PO-ASAS classification • Delegation of responsibility from the controller to the flight crew to execute a crossing manoeuvre with respect to one designated target aircraft. • The controller remains responsible for the separation with respect to the other aircraft in the sector. • Conditions • This is post AS/GS package I and ADS-B IN (and data link) would be available. • Traffic conditions would be similar to current situation for Controller tools. • Related Programmes • MA-AFAS, MFF, IAPA

Cost Benefit User Analysis & Workshops & Results User Forums WP1 WP2 WP3 Concepts & Scenarios Oceanic C&P In Radar Airspace Simulations WP4 Procedure Definition ASA S Package 2/3 applications Safety assessment & procedures & Regulatory Impact WP6 WP8 Safety ITM In Oceanic Assessment Airspace Work Package structure WP7 Dissemination & Exploitation WP5 Implementation & Infrastructure

  7. AIRBORNE SEPARATION • Airborne separation will be based on airborne surveillance and airborne navigation. • The typical values could be expressed in TIME rather than DISTANCE. • Safety studies are required before promoting any reduction in the current ATC separation minima. • ASSTAR assumed several typical values for the applications: • 5NM for ASEP-C&P in radar airspace • 10 or 15 NM for ASEP-ITP in oceanic airspace • 2 minutes or 5 NM for ASEP-ITF in oceanic airspace

  8. Objectives for this session • One year ago in Rome, information on approach, methods and feedback from the audience, …including critiques…. • The session of this afternoon is dedicated to present ASSTAR findings on the various applications: • Definition of the procedures (Applicability conditions, phraseology) • Operational benefits (safety, capacity, workload and task sharing) • Airborne systems requirements (algorithms, architecture)

  9. Forthcoming events More results should be presented at: • User Workshop #5, 27th June 2007 • What? ASSTAR Contributions to SESAR • Where? Hotel Napoleon Paris, France • Who? All ASSTAR partners + SESAR experts Inscriptions before 25th May webmaster@asstar.org • ASAS-TN2 workshop, September (to be confirmed) • Final report and recommendations October 07

  10. Programme of the session • Airborne separation applications from ANSP perspective (Craig, NATS) • Oceanic applications: RTS and FTS results (Bart, NLR) • ASEP-C&P in radar airspace (John, UoG) • Airborne architecture (Philippe, THAV) • Discussion, questions and answers….
