First Initial 4D flight, 10 Feb 2012 Honeywell.com Airbus A320 test aircraft Oslo Stockholm SA620 3 rd RTA in descent Honeywell Flight Management System (FMS) prototype was tested on board assigned RTA descent initiated assigned RTA assigned RTA REVLA Copenhagen KUBIS 2 nd RTA in descent 22 min under RTA control London Amsterdam Berlin descent initiated Warsaw climb to FL340 ADS-C connection with ATC established wind and temperature data uplinked Paris Brussels 1 st RTA in cruise Brno 9 take-off at 6:30am from Toulouse Toulouse top of climb Three RTAs made within the Three RTAs made within the required accuracy ±10 sec
Extended Projected Profile ADS-C Extended Projected Profile (EPP) report - contains aircraft trajectory predictions for up to 128 waypoints with details of predicted time, speed, altitude, etc. EPP provides aircraft predictions to the Air Traffic Controller, or ATC system. Without EPP With EPP Important enabler of new trajectory based operations 10

Extended Hybrid Surveillance (DO- 300A): TCAS II Enhancement Use of ADS-B information for tracking distant traffic Potentially up to 89% reduction of the TCAS II use of 1090 MHz frequency! Baseline for ACAS-X surveillance capability/functions System developed, flight testing in progress SESAR 9.47 TCAS Evolution ACAS-X: Next generation of ACAS Development (cooperation of SESAR with FAA) New logic (interoperable with TCAS II) and system architecture Reduced nuisance alert rate Adaptable system allowing different a/c (sensors) configurations Flexibility to adapt logic to specific operations (e.g., Closely spaced parallel runways operations) Easier upgradability of the system Simpler certification. 20
SESAR 9.21 1090 MHz ADS-B higher performance study Improvements reception of ADS-B in highly interference environment Backward compatibility, i.e. there is no need for link specification changes Mitigation techniques can improve reception of the messages up to 20% Three mitigation techniques investigated Enhanced bit confidence declaration Sectorized antennas Blind Beamforming All mitigation techniques shown better performance in comparison to baseline receiver Baseline receiver can receive only one of messages Advanced receiver fulfils strengthened requirements from the future surveillance applications 21
Interoperability is a must Technical Operational Business Build Interoperable Solutions The systems should work the same all over the world Flight crew should apply same procedures Air users should buy a single equipment for international use Memorandum of cooperation between EU / US in aviation research International Standardization Activities RTCA/Eurocae, ICAO Solutions developed in SESAR and NextGen should be harmonized 22
Summary Honeywell is globally engaged in research, standards development, and product development supporting NextGen and SESAR initiatives Honeywell works directly with aviation stakeholders Regulators Standards Bodies ANSPs OEMs Research Organizations Operators 23
Conclusion Honeywell is working hard to deliver a growing line of innovative products and services that utilize emerging ATM capabilities to drive real operational benefits for operators. Thank you www.aerospace.honeywell.com 24
