2 Agenda ASDE-X Program Overview Deployment Schedule Data Distribution Displays Safety Alerts Expansion Ground vehicles Other Airport Areas Wrap-up/Q&A 2

3 FAA ASDE-X Program 1998 Runway Incursion Reduction Program Incorporate new technology for all weather operations Program Goals Increase controller situational awareness Reduce the risk of critical category A and B runway incursions Improve surface operational efficiencies 3

4 FAA ASDE-X Program Provides seamless movement area coverage and aircraft identification to air traffic controllers Uses a modular surface surveillance system that processes multiple radar sources (ASR & SMR), multilateration and ADS-B sensor data For aircraft and vehicles Provides data with an accuracy, update rate, and reliability suitable for improving airport safety in all weather conditions 4

6 What is ASDE-X? Surface surveillance and automation for aircraft and ground vehicles Enhances safety, efficiency, and capacity Situational awareness in all visibility conditions Complete Integrated System Primary Radar provides position of all objects in the movement area Secondary Surveillance aircraft position and identification through transponder multilateration Automated Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) self-reported aircraft position using GPS ASR-9/Mode-S provides aircraft position and identification in terminal airspace Track Processing fuses surveillance and automation information into track of aircraft and vehicles Tower Display situational awareness with target position and identification on airport overlay Safety Logic Audible and visual conflict alerts on Tower Display 6

7 MDS (Multilateration) ASDE-X Overview Controller Working Position Surface Movement Radar Data Processing & Control & Monitor Conflict Alerting Terminal Area Radar Remote Units 7

8 Multilateration Surveillance Multilateration surveillance Provides highly accurate and timely (once per second) positional data of cooperative (transponder equipped) aircraft Requires NO additional aircraft equipage Interrogates Modes A, C and S Receives Mode S squitters Acts as bridge to next-generation surveillance Mode S ADS-B extended-squitter (1090ES) Mode S datalink eg, 1030 TIS, enhanced surveillance 8 Scalable architecture with distributed redundancy Surface surveillance Terminal area surveillance Wide-area or en route gap-filler

9 Surface Movement Radar Designed to track non-cooperative (nonemitting) vehicles (aircraft & others) on the airport surface. Sensis SMRi Solid State designed for ATC 2 Channel, 16 Frequency Diversity even under transmitter module failure 3m 2 Detected at 4,200+meters Low Life Cycle Cost Minimal preventive maintenance High reliability Contracts for SMRi Installed at Bradley (BDL) and Syracuse (SYR) Orders for 13 FAA Sites Sensis SMRi 9

15 Benefits of ASDE-X Improved Safety Position and velocity known for all aircraft Including departing aircraft Aircraft identified by type, fix, flight number Enhanced Safety alerting to reduce errors Enables taxi routing conformance monitored Enables RWSL ASDE-X Improved Capacity ATL operations decreased from 112 to 68 per hour after ASDE-X was taken off line Affords sequencing for increased airport and system capacity 15 ASDE-3 / AMASS Visual Only Allows evaluation of new technology Improved Efficiency 2 minute average savings for Fed Ex at Memphis Improved arrival prediction, asset tracking, runway usage

16 Benefits of ASDE-X - Increase Safety Increase Safety is achieved: Full situational awareness at all times All weather performance Accurate Identification ID accuracy 99.9% Reliable Conflict Alerting system Configurable to provide up to 45 seconds of warning Low False Alert Rate (FAA requires 1 in 30 days) Low False Track Rate 1 in 1000 The runway incursions at all these airports should cause us to ask a vital question: why don t these airports have the technology to help prevent those incursions? Why don t these airports have ASDE-X? NATCA President, January

17 Benefits of ASDE-X - Increase Efficiency/Capacity Increase Efficiency and Capacity is achieved: Full Situational Awareness including the gate areas and approach corridors Accurate identification All weather performance Accurate position calculationless than 20 feet Accurate Target Resolution Quick track Initiation, less than 5 seconds High Availability 99.95% Milwaukee Airport (Wisconsin, USA) has experienced on the average 30 second taxi-out time reductions during departure pushes FAA Report 17

18 New Operational Concept Direct Alerts to Cockpits Simultaneous Notification Controller and Flight Crew 18 NTSB: Give immediate warnings of probable collisions/incursions directly to flight crews in the cockpit

19 Expanded Surveillance Coverage Data Distribution serves as a mechanism for expanded coverage Able to Leverage ASDE-X Infrastructure Or Install Separate System Passive Surveillance Approach to Expanded Coverage is flexible Cooperative Surveillance from approach, touch-down, taxi & into gates (Ramp Area) Next Generation MDS Remote Units Wireless options Seamless surveillance with ATC system 19
