“Constructive tension”• Between institutional & business frameworks

Unambiguous ATM safety regulatory framework• Across the whole air transport industry

Global interoperability• By performance-based regulation & a simplified approach to developing

standards

“Overarching” governance structure for implementation

A- One Single “design” authority for European ATM System

empowered to define, plan & manage the implementation

of the System which has:• One functional architecture

• An integrated ground-based and airborne systems design

• Separation of Services: ATM services

Supporting (technical) services

Physical assets

• Flexibility

Work package 2.5

Working package 2.5 Technology Assessment

The overall goals of this WP are:• Identification and characterisation of candidate technologies (available and

new / innovative ones) in order to support the concept of operation and the architecture options for mid & long-term objectives

• Identification of risks and blocking points concerning the introduction of the candidate technologies (e.g. open technical issues or technology availability)

• Development of a strategy how to resolve the identified risks and blocking points

A consensus is needed on a technology roadmap. The roadmap must:

• operationally support future ATS • be applicable worldwide and institutionally accepted

• include supporting R&D themes

AGCFG - SESAR cooperation

AGCFG can assist the SESAR project in particular • to understand the Future Communication Study assessment, results and

recommendations• In contributing to create common SESAR/AGTF positions

SESAR can assist AGCFG in particular by• enlarging the dissemination of FCS work• providing stakeholder feedback to AGTF• endorsing through this feedback common reference positions

AGCFG/SESAR cooperation is key to both projects• Through this we could achieve :

Consensus on key technologies

Harmonised selection of aviation related technology, with no unjustified proliferation of multiple technologies addressing the same needs.

Global interoperability

Where can AGCFG assist?

AGCFG experts support is needed on communications strategy :

• To disseminate,and to explain the initial communications strategy This is particularly scope of D1 phase of SESAR (Mar - June 06)

• To create full understanding & rationale between AGCFG & SESAR stakeholders on choices, methodology, candidate technologies, issues etc. related to the future communications strategy

This is particularly the scope of D3/D4 phase of SESAR (Sep 06 - Oct 07);

• Openly respond to SESAR stakeholders questions
