Advanced curved approach operations in the terminal manoeuvring are (TMA) using time-based separation (PJ.02-04) |
Curved approach operations offer considerable benefits in terms of the environment as they enable airlines to fly more efficiently, lowering CO2 emissions and fuel consumption. The challenge is for controllers to give clearance to these operations during peak hours and busy periods. Once granted to a flight, this type of approach does not allow further controller intervention. Partners in the Airport Airside and Runway Throughput project (AART PJ.02) aims to provide controllers with the means to handle a mix of traffic using curved and legacy straight-in approaches and an advanced separation tool adapted for a time-based separation mode of operation (PJ.02-04). The aim is to increase the usage of curved operations (so an extended environmental benefit) and at the same time to optimise runway throughput. This project has received funding from the SESAR Joint Undertaking under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 874477 |

Integrated TMA, Airport and Runway Operations/ Optimised Airspace Users Operations (ITARO -PJ.37/OAUO PJ.07) |
Environmental sustainability is instrumental for the future of aviation. The ITARO project is demonstrating on a larger scale several airport solutions, which offer a range of efficiencies, both operationally and environmentally. These include procedures to enable more efficient and integrated runway throughput and terminal operations; a collaborative framework for managing delay constraints on arrivals; and improved arrival and departure operations. These solutions have been developed within the framework of the OAUO project. As part of the project, DSNA is performing a shadow mode trial in collaboration with Eurocontrol and Air France. The exercise consists of integrating flight priorities from the airline’s dispatchers into the Network Manager’s UDPP (user-driven preferences priorities) server, and then transmitted to Paris’ air traffic control centre where it is fed into its arrival traffic flow management processes and tools. Visitors will have an opportunity to find out more about the collaborative framework, including the integration of airspace users’ priorities in local demand and capacity balancing collaborative processes (in terms of data, timing, constraints management etc.) and into the Paris flow manager arrival tool. ITARO and OAUO have received funding from the SESAR Joint Undertaking under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 101017622 and No 874470 respectively. |

Airport Airside and Runway Throughput (AART - PJ.02) |
The Airport Airside and Runway Throughput project (AART PJ.02) aims to improve the efficiency and resilience of arrival and departure operations at capacity-constrained airports and access to secondary airports by delivering operational and technical improvements to enhance infrastructure and increase traffic throughput whilst providing environmental benefits and preserving safety. Among the solutions under development are those that allow for dynamic wake separation reduction depending on aircraft characteristics and weather conditions. These require the use of a spacing delivery support tool, or landing with optimised delivery tool, LORD. This tool computes the applicable time- or distance-based separation minima and provide distance indicators supporting their correct delivery by the controller. A simulator with ground and approach positions will offer visitors to discover the solutions enabled by the LORD tool and get a closer look at the tool’s features and the benefits that it offers.

Initial 4D mission trajectory with integrated dynamic mobile areas (DMA) types 1 and 2 supported by automation and dynamic civil-military collaborative decision making (CDM)
|
Europe’s armed forces operate more than 150,000 flights per year. To accommodate these flights, the airspace is often closed, sometimes at short notice, to civil traffic. Given the growth of air traffic demand and complexity, the Optimised Airspace Users Operations project (PJ.07/OAUO) is developing dynamic solutions that allow more flexible civil-military cooperation to maximise the use of airspace. These include the design of airspace reservation (DMA type 1&2), in addition to advanced airspace management and the dynamic exchange of ATM-related data between relevant ATM actors. Civil and military operational stakeholders benefit equally from the flexibility of mission trajectory ATM-related data and their use in a dynamic CDM process supported by automated tool algorithms for impact assessments. The anticipated ATM performance expectations are met by maximising the use of airspace capacity and optimising flight trajectories, resulting in improved aviation sustainability, while safeguarding the effectiveness of military training missions. A demonstration of the solution will takes place on 21 June from 13:15 – 14:15 OAUO has received funding from the SESAR Joint Undertaking under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 874470. |

Full guidance assistance to mobiles using “follow the greens” (PJ.02-W2-21.4) |
Maintaining efficient and predictable aircraft movement between stand to runway in all weather conditions is a challenge at busy airports, but there are tools available, which can help to guide aircraft safely around the airfield. The ‘follow the greens’ solution receives the cleared route provided by the solution, and confirmed by the tower controller and illuminates the taxiway centreline lights to a specified distance ahead of the aircraft under guidance by switching them on and off automatically, and also, where applicable, switching stop bars on and off automatically. Recent real-time simulations have shed light on the use of solution and the impact of automation human performance, namely in general workload, radio communication load, usability, situational awareness. A demo will present a system with an integrated ‘follow the greens’ functionality as well as a simulator to provide the 3D visualisation. The solution is among several developed by the AART project, which has received funding from the SESAR Joint Undertaking under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 874477 |

Plate lines – Mitigating wake-turbulence risk (PJ.02-01-07/SORT) |
When an aircraft is in flight, counter-rotating regions of turbulence, known as wake vortices, are formed behind it. Wake vortices pose a potential threat to aircraft following behind. By deploying patented plate lines situated in front of the runway, the lifetime of wake vortices near the ground can be reduced by about 30%. The resulting safety benefits for final approaches may potentially even allow reducing aircraft separations. Visitors will have a chance to find out more about the theory behind the plate-line principle elucidated by a hands-on testing by partners in the EARTH project and through a demonstration campaign conducted at Vienna Airport within the context of the Improving runway throughput in one airport (EARTH) project. Contact: Frank Holzäpfel, [email protected] for more information EARTH and SORT have received funding from the SESAR Joint Undertaking under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 731781 and No 874477respectively |

Digital remote tower |
In a matter of years, digital tower technology has re-written the rulebook on air traffic control. What started as a SESAR concept to make small and regional airports more viable has extended into new and sometimes unexpected directions, transitioning into a family of solutions and blending other technologies such as virtual or augmented reality. Digital towers are bringing operational efficiencies, resilience and cost effectiveness that airports need now and in the long term. SAAB has been and continues to be at the forefront of this digital transformation in air traffic management, and is developing new services in support of the rapidly evolving drone traffic management and urban air mobility concepts. Saab is actively working with partners and customers to define and supply solutions, known as the Saab Digital Sky service concept, for this new aviation ecosystem. Visitors will be provided with an in-depth demonstration of the SAAB Digital Tower (r-TWR) and Integrated Tower (I-ATS) solutions. The demos will highlight the benefits of combining advanced digital towers and automation as the foundation for the new aviation ECO system. |

Augmented reality in Vitoria ATC tower |
Controllers in airport towers rely on being able to see aircraft taxiing, taking off and landing in order to manage them safely and efficiently. However, when bad weather sets in, their visual situational awareness can be impaired, leading to a reduction in throughput. Using synthetic vision and augmented reality technologies, controllers can see synthetic information overlaid on the actual “out-of-the-window” view. Visitors will have an opportunity to hear about recent shadow mode exercises performed at Vitoria airport within the context of the Digital Technologies for Tower project (DTT/PJ.05), and see a demonstration of a prototype presenting virtual labels for aircraft on air and on ground and virtual indication of runaway occupancy. The demonstration will show how augmented reality can help improve situational awareness and pave the way for improved airport resilience in low-visibility conditions.

Highly flexible allocation of aerodromes to remote tower modules (DTT/PJ.05) |
Providing air traffic services to multiple airports from one location brings cost benefits in terms of shared resources, job satisfaction, human performance and training costs. A remote tower centre (RTC) equipped with a number of remote tower modules can provide services to one or more airports from each module. Within the context of the Digital Technologies for Tower project, a remote ATC centre software was validated in a simulation environment where up to 15 airports were supervised in a multiple working position set-up to a high level of maturity (V3). Through video footage, visitors will learn about the validation and tasks of a future remote tower centre supervisor role. Slides will explain in detail how multiple airports can be successfully managed from within a centre, the challenges identified throughout the validations based on the controller feedback and how to tackle new tasks with the support of a supervisor software.

Remote tower meets virtual reality (DTT/PJ.05) |
ANSPs and airports benefit from synergies provided by remote air traffic services, but many airports with very low revenues are nevertheless unable to afford state-of-the-art remote-tower technology. These predominantly smaller airports often do not provide a full air traffic control service but instead offer lower levels, such as aerodrome flight information service, or just a universal communication station. An off-the-shelf pan-tilt-zoom camera supplemented with a basic video panorama, whose video streams are presented by a virtual reality headset, would be perfectly suitable for those basic service levels and, most importantly: affordable for low-revenue airports. Within the context of the Digital Technologies for Tower project, DLR has prototyped and tested such a “very low-cost” remote-tower concept and will present its preliminary results.

Multi remote tower and multi remote tower centre and multiple remote tower planning |
Remote towers are already a reality for leading ANSPs across the world. This operating concept is at the forefront of ATM service provision, however the potential of this technology continues to be explored by SESAR partners with regards multi-remote towers, a concept where an air traffic controller could provide services to multiple aerodromes. Visitors will see first-hand the dynamic allocation of traffic, specifically the management of traffic for 3 airports simultaneously handling up to 30 movements and during unexpected events – these were tested within the context of the Digital Technologies for Tower project. They will also see the successful dynamic allocation of remote tower modules within a multi remote centre in nominal, as well as emergency or system failure situations.

Remote Tower supervisor Tools Multi Remote Tower Centres |
A remote tower centre is operated by a pool of air traffic control officers (ATCOs), who provide their services to airports on demand. When combining resources in a single centre, controllers can also assist each other if the traffic at a particular airport peaks. Even air traffic services at medium airports could benefit by connecting to a large remote tower centre as they could operate more efficiently, while helping the ATCOs to better balance their workload using sophisticated role management. Visitors will have a chance to see a simulation of a remote tower centre supervising up to 15 airports in a multiple working position set-up, which has been tested within the context of the Digital Technologies for Tower project.

ADSCENSIO (PJ38) |
More sustainable aviation will come from being able to better predict the trajectories of flights. Instrumental in this is the sharing of data in real-time between the aircraft and air traffic control ground systems. The ADSCENSIO project is demonstrating a solution (ADS-C/Extended project profile) to downlink of the aircraft’s intensions via datalink. As part of the goal to move to trajectory-based operations, the ADSCENSIO project focuses on improving various features of air traffic control in order to better anticipate how flights would behave. The research is feeding into deployment efforts to see that by 2027 Europe’s air traffic control ground systems are capable of making use of aircraft trajectory data and that 45% of flights in Europe have the capacity to share trajectory. DSNA will present the IODA (Innovative Operations for Departures and Arrivals) functionalities in a web version derived from the operational tool. The tool will be connected to operational live data and permit replay of recorded sequences for the specific need of PJ 38 new functionalities during the dedicated presentations. These presentations will be performed by ATM operational experts from Paris air traffic control centre (ACC). Please note that the IODA tool will also be used to showcase PJ.37 ITARO shadow mode trials in Paris ACC.

Improved meteorological information for better collaborative cross-border ATFCM supported by AI automation - ISOBAR |
The ISOBAR project aims at the provision of a service- and AI-based network operations plan, by integrating enhanced convective weather forecasts for predicting imbalances between capacity and demand and exploiting AI to select mitigation measures at local and network level in a collaborative ATFCM operations paradigm. Visitors will have a chance to find out more about the project’s work on a meteo engine (MetEngine). The use of MetEngine improves the forecasting accuracy of storms based on convective indicators. It is based on the use and post-processing of numeric weather predictions (NWPs). NWPs use mathematical models of the atmosphere and oceans to predict weather based on current conditions. Ensemble prediction systems (EPS) are used to obtain probabilistic forecasts of convective weather. These models are the most innovative available for the geographical areas of interest that ISOBAR consortium selected, ensuring that the models’ outputs can be transformed in convective indicators.

Enable RPAS Insertion in controlled airspace (ERICA) The key objective of the ERICA project is to test and demonstrate the safe insertion of RPAS in non-segregated controlled airspace. This is done using a set of operational scenarios specifically designed with the aim at proving the safety conditions and overall efficiency of air traffic when aircraft with and without pilots on board are included in both nominal and contingency situations. Visitors will have a chance to see how unmanned and manned traffic can coexist safely and efficiently with no significant impact on operational procedures already in place. Contingency scenarios will show how to manage RPAS-specific emergency situations (C2 loss, Pilot-ATCO link loss, etc), while keeping the expected safety levels for the surrounding traffic. Visitors will see how the ATC system/CWP have been enhanced in order to provide controllers with full situational awareness, by integrating RPAS specific data into the view of controlled traffic. The abovementioned ATC platform capabilities and operational scenarios have been tested in an entirely simulated environment as well as in a real-virtual environment through a flight trial involving a real RPAS (Leonardo SW-4 SOLO) flying a temporary segregated area from the Grottaglie (Taranto) Airport along with simulated manned traffic.

URClearED - Enabling RPAS integration in unsegregated airspace |
In the coming years, remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) will become ever-present in our skies serving as vehicles for cargo delivery and many other important services. Safety of these operations will be critical. That is why the URClearED project addresses the ‘remain-well-clear‘ (RWC) function, one of the key technological issues that will allow certified RPAS to safely share airspace with other (manned and unmanned) aircraft at intermediate altitudes. It aims to define the requirements and capabilities for the RWC function, to be integrated in RPAS vehicles flying IFR into specific parts of the sky that are referred to as airspace classes D-G. Through video footage and presentations, visitors will be provided with insights into RWC requirements for application in airspace classes D-G and results from recent fast-time and real-time test campaigns.

Collision risk model (CRM) developed under DACUS project |
Unmanned aerial vehicles are on the verge of disrupting low-level air traffic as we know it. For safe and efficient operations on a daily basis, future drone ecosystems will need mechanisms to balance demand and capacity. To address the challenge, the SESAR JU DACUS (demand and capacity for U-space optimisation) project is developing a service-oriented demand and capacity balancing (DCB) process for U-space, and as part of that, a collision risk model (CRM). The model estimates the collision and derived fatality risk for predefined drone trajectories, considering potential uncertainties with regard to these nominal trajectories (time delay/advance, positioning errors). Visitors will have a chance to see the CRM model in action as it analyses different batches of flight plans and provides maps showing the collision risk evolution with time, per cell. Whenever the mean fatality risk due to potential collisions is above or close a certain target level of safety, the map shows the cell coloured and some trajectories would have to be replanned to keep the risk at an acceptable level. Other companies in the DACUS consortium are proposing complementary showcases, such as SOPRA STERIA and its social impact model.

Unmanned aerial vehicles are on the verge of disrupting low-level air traffic as we know it. For safe and efficient operations on a daily basis, future drone ecosystems will need mechanisms to balance demand and capacity. To address the challenge, the SESAR JU DACUS (demand and capacity for U-space optimisation) project is developing a service-oriented demand and capacity balancing (DCB) process for U-space, and as part of that, a route planning platform that represents different sources of demand uncertainty. With this platform prototype, it is possible to assess the impact of diverse future traffic pictures in constrained low-level airspaces. Visitors will have a chance to see the platform prototype as it processes the demand of drone operations of different types (transport, inspection, surveillance) and shows the traffic situation over a map view. Then, the visitors will see in actions the route planning capability that generates drone trajectories and occupancy volumes. The prototype feeds the DCB services with the operation plans and shows the resulting Social Impact hotspots. Whenever a measure from the DCM service is triggered, the prototype will refine the trajectories and the hotspot view will be updated on the map. Other companies in the DACUS consortium are proposing complementary showcases, such as SOPRA STERIA with its Social Impact model.

Flight-centric ATC |
European airspace is divided into flight information regions, which are subdivided into sectors to provide safe separation services for aircraft travelling through the airspace. Changing this to a flight-centred structure without reference to geographical sectors opens up the opportunity to distribute the traffic more evenly, and to avoid lost productivity in under-loaded sectors. Aircraft may be under the responsibility of the same controller across two or more geographical sectors rather than handed over at sector boundaries. Visitors will have a chance to find out about an operational and human performance feasibility analysis, which was conducted on the implementation of flight-centric operations in Spanish airspace. They will also hear about results from fast-time simulations and workload analysis, which offer recommendations regarding airspace characteristics, operating methods and support tools. All of which is necessary to assess whether the solution is operationally feasible as well as economically beneficial in terms of ATCO-hours. Presented on 21 June 9.30; 22 June 10.00 and 23 June 11.00. NOTE: it is recommended to make an appointment to guarantee the presence of the appropriate expert.

Speech recognition meets ATC (HAAWAII/PROSA) |
Today the most advanced digital assistants in air traffic control (ATC) already have access to a large number of sensors that allow monitoring of traffic in the air and on the ground. Voice communication between air traffic controllers and pilots, however, as one of the most central sources of information in ATC, is not considered by these assistants. Whenever the information from voice communication has to be digitised, controllers are burdened to enter the information manually. Research results show that up to one third of the working time of controllers is spent on these manual inputs. Assistant-based speech recognition (ABSR) can close the gap of digitising ATC voice communication. Visitors will have a chance to see a live demonstration of ABSR capabilities in recognising and understanding speech from pilots, air traffic and apron controllers within different applications.

Delegation of airspace amongst ATSUs (PJ.10-93) Virtual centre technical infrastructure (PJ.32-03) |
With virtual centres, Europe is breaking away from the conventional architecture for air traffic management. These centres aim to decouple the physical controller working position (CWP) from the remote provision of ATM data and technical services, such as flight data distribution and management. The aim is to enable greater flexibility when it comes to organising ATC operations and, in doing so, seamless and more cost-efficient service provision to airlines and other airspace users. The delegation of airspace solution applies when one ATSU delegates a portion of its airspace to another ATSU based on a particular condition. The PROSA project is investigating use cases for the delegation of ATS and contingency in conjunction with the virtual centre technology where the ATM data service provider (ADSP) is geographically separated from the virtual centre ATSU providing ATS to a region of airspace. |

Conflict detection resolution (4DSkyways/PJ.18-53A) |
As traffic demand increases, so too does the need provide safe and efficient air traffic services. SESAR members are looking at automation tools to reduce controller workload, manage separation buffers and facilitate new controller team organisation for en-route and terminal manoeuvring areas phases of flight. This 4DSkyways project is developing conflict detection and resolution for planning and tactical controllers to provide enhanced resolution support information based upon predicted conflict detection and associated monitoring features. The solution also provides additional trajectory prediction based on ADS-C and known constraints, and introduces machine learning and big data techniques to provide more accurate estimates. Real-time simulations by Thales and COOPANS are validating whether increased automation in planning and tactical separation management can reduce ATCO workload, enhance safety benefits, lead to fewer conflicts and result in more energy-efficient trajectories. Using video footage and a screen prototype, visitors will be able to visualise the solution.

Skyguide | 1220 | 4D Skyways - Improving trajectory management for European air transport |
Skyguide and skysoft-ATM in cooperation with Airbus Defence and Space recently completed real time simulations (RTS) at skyguide premises in Geneva mid of May. This RTS has been conducted in the frame of the SESAR Horizon 2020 4DSkyways project addressing Trajectory Based Operations concept (TBO), and included the use of ADS-C reports to improve ground Trajectory Prediction and Conflicts Detection and Resolution tools and the use of new CPDLC ATN-B2 messages for complex and in advance clearances. It this has been performed on the skytics platform which includes the Airbus Genetics simulator allowing to have simulated flight trajectories close to reality by taking into account real performance of the aircraft. Join us on: Or contact, [email protected] or [email protected], for more information. For general skyguide enquires, please contact: Glassey Marie-Laure marie-[email protected] |

Future ADS-B communications link (I-CNSS/PJ.14-W2-84d) |
The implementation of a wide range of surveillance technologies, including ADS-B, which is envisaged as future surveillance backbone, impacts data transmission and the use of the available spectrum. The I-CNSS project aims to address this and other challenges with the development of a variety of CNS solutions, being one of them Solution84d for the development of the future ADS-B communications link or phase overlay for Mode S and ADS-B datalink. The solution has developed 2 prototypes (one transmitter and one receiver) and has executed two different exercises under laboratory and real environment conditions, achieving great results. In the second exercise, 3 flight tests were executed with the transmitter prototype on board an helicopter, while the receiver was located on ground (in different locations in order to study different technological performances), obtaining around 91% of phase overlay correct message decoding out of all the received messages. Future projects/solutions could use this results in order to work on the operational use of this new transmission technology.
