Fallback / Contingency

Systems

London-wide air traffic control failure was

caused by an unprecedented computer fault

The computer error that caused the skies over London to be cleared of

planes had never been seen by engineers before, according to the

company in charge of the system.

Air traffic control firm NATS said the computer error had restricted air

traffic controllers’ ability to deal with high volumes of aircraft.

NATS said its systems were up and running again last night but that

knock-on effects were still affecting airports today.

Travel problems continue into weekend after glitch at air traffic control

centre that transport secretary calls ‘unacceptable’!

General on FBS

Main purpose of FBS is to perform in case of:

1) Emergency; Failure in main

2) Planned shorter switch-off of main

3) Longer unavailability of main

4) Replacement of main

Requirements on FBS

• Constantly available

• Not fail when main fails

• Aligned operational context

• Sufficient functionality

• Functionality & HMI similar as main

• Easily maintainable

• Use the working positions of main

• Possible to develop further

Si ATM solution

• Reuse of well-proven Si ATM products

• Software different from main

• Same surveillance input

• Functionality; MST, SNET, CWP, FDP ….

• Emulate HMI of main

• Main FBS connection

• KVM switch

• Redundant, Si ATM advanced functions

Contingency Systems

1) Clear the skies

UFS Hong Kong

2) Continued reduced operations

ARES Croatia

3) Continued full operations

To be discussed

Hong Kong Ultimate Fallback System (UFS)

• Clear the sky

• One operational system and one test

configuration

• Single servers

• Online system with 86 CWP + 6 tech. supervisors

• Voice recording and playback

UFS

UFS Overview

No software, computers or network equipment in common with the main system - but uses the same monitors, keyboards, mouses and loudspeakers. Each controller can individually select which system; main, fallback or UFS, that shall provide information on his/her monitors using a KVMA-switch

UFS Overview (contimued)

• Surveillance data; dual serial lines + network connections. 5 radar stations and two ADS-B feeds, True multi-sensor tracking

• Weather data; from radars

• Flight information; is continuously fed from the main systems keeping a database of abbreviated flight plans up to date.

• QNH; direct from met-office.

• Safety Nets; STCA, MSAW, APW, and APM

• Controller HMI; adapted to AT3

• Recording; of data for playback and recording of voice from main VCS and from the Direct Radio Communication System (DRCS) for playback.

• Monitoring and control using SNMP

UFS, Controller Functions

• Same track symbols as in AT3, labels configurable

• Automatic and manual coupling

• Flight jurisdiction

• Coordination between sectors

• Flight lists (inbound/outbound), configurable

• SNET alerts same presentation as in AT3

• Prediction lines

• Separation probe

• QDM

• Weather radar presentation

• Presentation filters

• Maps

• Pointer symbol communication

• Status of interfaces

Databases synchronization

At connection; clear database and download Operative flight plans.

After the initial establishment of the connection, the AT3 system will send a Flight Data Message

• any time a new flight is created with a Flight Plan State of Operative,

• when a flight’s Flight Plan State changes to Operative,

• when an existing Operative flight’s data is modified or a flight’s Flight Plan State changes to Cancelled.

A flight plan becomes Operative when either the EOBT or the FIR entry time is within this VSP time of current system time.

Croatia ATM Radar Emergency System (ARES)

• Clear the sky and continued reduced operations

• Five operational installations + one test configuration

• Two redundant configurations and four with single

servers

• Zagreb online with 55 CWP + one technical

supervisor
