Institution National Aerospace Laboratory NLR Date 1992-02-15 Abstract The expected growth of air traffic asks for large enhancements in continental Air Traffic Management (ATM) to increase capacity. From a technology point of view a multitude of 'solutions' are available, such as introducing air-ground datalink, providing better support to the ATCo (Air Traffic Controller), introducing 4D air traffic control, installing Airborne Collision Avoidance systems, etc., most of which mainly work in combination with each other. Hence there is a strong need for an integrated approach towards the design and validation of enhancements in continental ATM. The Layered Safety concept has been developed to provide such an approach on the basis of capacity and safety criteria Subject Aircraft safetyCollision avoidanceAirspaceAir trafficAir traffic controlCapacityGround-air-ground communicationHierarchiesInterfacesManagement analysisControl system design To reference this document use: http://resolver.tudelft.nl/uuid:ce96aac3-a2eb-4238-96f6-fe601e6bf558 Publisher Nationaal Lucht- en Ruimtevaartlaboratorium Access restriction Campus only Source NLR Technical Publication TP 92046 U Part of collection Aerospace Engineering Reports Document type report Rights (c)1992 National Aerospace Laboratory NLR Files PDF 92046.pdf 9.78 MB Close viewer /islandora/object/uuid:ce96aac3-a2eb-4238-96f6-fe601e6bf558/datastream/OBJ/view
