Air Traffic Management A performance driven, system level approach Răzvan Mărgăuan March 2015



Course Objectives • Get to know each other; • Establish a foundation knowledge • understanding of the ATM business domain (WHAT?) – Current (limitations) – Future evolutions (challenges) • performance driven approach (WHY?) • operational and technical perspective (HOW?)



Course Objectives • system-level overview of the current ATM system components • present and future technologies in the ATM domain. – increased system automation – elements and enablers – the strategy for implementation

Air Traffic Management (ATM) The dynamic, integrated management of air traffic and airspace including air traffic services, airspace management and air traffic flow management — safely, economically and efficiently — through the provision of facilities and seamless services in collaboration with all parties and involving airborne and ground-based functions. Procedures for Air Navigation Services (PANS-ATM) ICAO Doc 4444 ATM/501 Fifteenth Edition — 2007



Air Traffic Management (ATM) The general objective of ATM is to enable aircraft operators to • meet their planned departure and arrival times and to adhere to their preferred flight profiles • with the minimum constraints, • without compromising agreed levels of safety.



ATM system A system that provides ATM through • the collaborative integration of humans, information, technology, facilities and services, • supported by air and ground- and/or space-based communications, navigation and surveillance.



Air Traffic Control (ATC). A service provided for the purpose of: a) preventing collisions: 1) between aircraft, and 2) on the maneuvering area between aircraft and obstructions; and



b) expediting and maintaining an orderly flow of air traffic.



Air Traffic Flow and Capacity Management (ATFCM). A service established with the objective of contributing to a safe, orderly and expeditious flow of air traffic by ensuring that ATC capacity is utilized to the maximum extent possible, and that the traffic volume (demand) is compatible with the capacities declared by the appropriate ATS authority. Note: The above-mentioned is the ICAO definition of the ATFM. ATFCM is EUROCONTROL term that includes a process that ensures better realisation of the ATM capacity towards the traffic demand.



Airspace Management (ASM) is a planning function with the primary objective of maximising the utilisation of available airspace by dynamic time-sharing and, at times, the segregation of airspace among various categories of users based on short-term needs.
