What is A-SMGCS?

z Conceived 1990

Increasing traffic levels

Airport complexity

Need to maintain service levels

z Four basic functions:

Surveillance

Control

Routing

Guidance

z ICAO Manual published 2004

z EUROCAE MASPS

Background

z ICAO Manual / EUROCAE Specifications

z Airport Implementations

Divergence (e.g. transponder procedures)

Lack of ATC procedures

z Need for Support & harmonisation

z Eurocontrol / EC Projects

Feedback


4/26

European Projects

z Two main projects Eurocontrol A-SMGCS Project (Short Term)

EC EMMA Project (Short-Medium Term)

z Common aim

Facilitate harmonised implementation A-SMGCS Levels 1 & 2 Develop Operational Concepts, Systems & Procedures A-SMGCS

Levels 3 & 4

z Common Concepts

z Independent Validation & Verification


5/26

A-SMGCS Level 1

z Improved Surveillance &procedures for ATC Replace Visual Observation

z Applies toAircraft on Movement Area

Vehicles on ManoeuvringArea

z Requires both cooperative &non-cooperative sensors SMR

Mode S Multilateration

z ICAO/EUROCAE baseline


6/26

A-SMGCS Level 2

z Level 1 Surveillance plus

Runway Safety Net

Conflicts/infringements on

runways

Incursion into restrictedareas (e.g. closed taxiway)

z Alerts given to Controllers

only

Eurocontrol A-SMGCS Project


8/26

Project Objectives

1. To fully develop A-SMGCS Levels 1 & 2 to operational

implementation: Develop & validate operational concepts, requirements & procedures

Develop generic safety & human factors cases

Address training & licensing2. Identify benefits

3. Provide baseline for

Feedback to ICAO etc. Harmonised implementation

Further A-SMGCS developments

Validation

z MAEVA Process (Master

ATM European Validation)

Developed by EC

Recognised methodology

z Real Time Simulations

z Operational Trials


11/26

ATC Simulation

Objectives:

Validate procedures and verify acceptancefrom ATCOs

Assess Safety, Capacity, Workload, Situation

Awareness benefits

Simulations of CdG andOrly airports

Compared SMR, A-SMGCS Level 1 and

A-SMGCS Level 2 environments


12/26

Operational Trials

z Further verify & validate the concepts & requirements

for Levels 1 & 2

Safety

Throughput

Environment

z Three Contracts Heathrow, Zurich (ATC) Dec 04-Jan 06

Frankfurt, Vienna & Zurich (Apron) Dec 04-Jan 06

Paris CdG Aug 05-Apr 06


13/26

Safety Case

z Uses Eurocontrol Safety Assessment Methodology

z

Develops Safety objectives & requirements for A-SMGCSLevels 1 & 2

z Provides evidence that objectives & requirements can be met

(through an operational example, Heathrow)

z Participation & agreement of Stakeholders (through five

workshops)

z

To be used a a basis of local Safety Case


14/26

Human Factors Case

z Highlight Human Factors

Issues

z Demonstrates how

addressed

z Areas identified for

examination

Human-Machine Interaction

Training & development

Procedures, roles &responsibilities

Recovery from failure


15/26

Business Case Assessment

z Aims to assess

Safety Impact

Economic Impact

Environment Impact

z Recognised methodology

z Involvement of stakeholders

z Used to support implementation (both

at regional & local level)

z Based upon results of validation
