Executive Summary
State Context
INAC, I.P. acts as the NSA for Portugal and covers all the tasks pertaining to an NSA under the SES regulations and depends directly Secretary of State of Infrastructures, Transport and Communications from the Ministry of Economy.
Military aviation in Portugal is the responsibility of the Portuguese Air Force (PRTAF), hence of the Air Force Chief of Staff (CEMFA). As an element of the national defense system, it responds directly to the Minister of National Defense.
ESSIP Objective Implementation
The progress of implementation of the ESSIP Objectives applicable to Portugal is quite satisfactory.
The implementation of ground based safety nets (ATC02.2-STCA Level 2, ATC02.5-MSAW Level 2, ATC02.6-APW Level 2 and ATC02.7-APM Level 2), as well as automated support for conflict detection and conformance monitoring (ATC12) are planned and included in the upgrading of LISATM system.
The process for the implementation of AOP05 -Airport Collaborative Decision Making (CDM) is ongoing and it is planned to be finalised in Lisbon airport by 2016.
The implementation of interoperability- related ESSIP Objectives (ITY-COTR and ITY-AGDL) is ongoing and planned to be finished by the end of 2015. The geographical scope of DLIC implementation is limited to Lisbon FIR/UIR, above FL 285.
AMAN (ATC07.1) is planned to be installed in Lisbon airport by 2015.
The implementation of APV procedures in Lisbon TMA is planned for December/2014.
The majority of the SLoAs are already completed for FCM01 (Enhanced Tactical Flow Management Services) and FCM03 (Collaborative flight planning). However, some extra work has to be done in order to finalize the message exchange with the CFMU.

Introduction
The Local Single Sky ImPlementation documents (LSSIPs), as an integral part of the ESSIP/LSSIP mechanism, constitute a five-year plan containing ECAC States’ actions to achieve the Implementation Objectives as set out by the ESSIP and to improve the performance of their national ATM System. The LSSIP document – Year 2013 describes the situation in the State at the end of December 2013.
The LSSIP documents are structured into 6 chapters to better differentiate the Stakeholder(s) accountable for the information contained in each of them:
Chapters 1 to 5 present the key players in the State, and sets the institutional and geographical scenes to help the reader understand the specifics of the State and interpret the rest of the document correctly. It also presents a short description of the main national and regional projects in which the national Stakeholders are involved.
Chapter 6 contains high-level information on progress and plans of each ESSIP Objective. The information for each ESSIP Objective is presented in boxes giving a summary of the progress and plans of implementation for each Stakeholder. The conventions used are presented at the beginning of the section.
Note: Chapter 6 is completed with a separate document called LSSIP Level 2. This document consists of a set of tables organised in line with the list of ESSIP Objectives. Each table contains all the actions planned by the four national stakeholders to achieve their respective Stakeholder Lines of Action (SLoAs) as established in the ESSIP.

1.1.2 Geographical description of the FIR(s)
The geographical scope of this document addresses the Portuguese FIRs/UIRs: Lisboa (EUR Region) and Santa Maria Oceanic (NAT Region) (see figure below).
The airspace managed by NAV Portugal is about 6 million sq Km. Portuguese FIRs are surrounded by FIRs of 7 States namely Spain (Madrid and Canarias FIR’s), Morocco (Casablanca FIR), Cabo Verde (Sal Oceanic FIR), United States (New York Oceanic FIR), Trinidad & Tobago (Piarco FIR), Canada (Gander Oceanic FIR) and Ireland/UK (Shanwick Oceanic FIR).
The following map shows the FIRs/UIRs adjacent to the Portuguese airspace.

1.1.3 Airspace Classification and Organisation
Within the Lisboa FIR/UIR the airspace is classified “C”, “D”, and “G”. The airspace classification “D” has been allocated to the restricted areas while these volumes of airspace are affected to military usage for determined periods. Accordingly, to the application of FUA principles and practices when these areas are no longer needed for military activities and became available for civil utilisation (GAT) they revert to classification “C”.
The division flight level separating upper from lower ATS airspace is FL 195 since 27 November 2003.
The figure below shows the current airspace classification within the Portuguese Airspace. As it can be seen, all airspace between FL 195 and FL660 is Class “C”.

ATC02.5
ATC02.6
ATC02.7
ATC07.1
ATC12
Safety: The systematic presentation to the controller of possible infringements of eminent and unauthorized penetrations into airspace volumes, possible infringements of minimum safe altitude ahead of their occurrence and of deviations from the glide path as provided by APW, MSAW and APM are major safety assurance functions. Early and systematic conflict detection reduces the need for tactical interventions. SYSCO improves the integrity of communication during the coordination.
Capacity: Increase in capacity due to the reduction of controller workload per aircraft. AMAN will improve airport/TMA capacity
Cost effectiveness: The use of standardised APW, MSAW and APM enables cost-effective use of resources. Early conflict detection will enable smother flight patterns without frequent and sudden control interventions. This will have a moderate influence on airline costs and moderate benefit for ANSPs due to reduced workload per aircraft and workload distribution. AMAN will allow cost reduction through reduction in delays. In addition, the new system architecture used in LISATM-iTEC will reduce deployment and maintenance costs.
Environment: AMAN reduces holding and low level vectoring with a positive environmental effect in terms of noise and fuel usage.

Chapter 5 - Regional Co-ordination
5.1 FAB Co-ordination
A Functional Airspace Block ( SW FAB) based on operational requirements was initiated by the Spanish and Portuguese air navigation services providers (ANSPs), respectively Aena and NAV Portugal, E.P.E. building upon historical collaboration between both organisations in areas of common interest and with the main aim of achieving an optimised air navigation service provision.and established regardless of State boundaries, where the provision of air navigation services and related functions are mainly performance-driven.
5.2 FAB Projects
iTEC-eFDP
In order to achieve a homogeneous Air Traffic Management (ATM) system in Europe, NAV Portugal, with other European partners, has participated for several years in Eurocontrol debates on related topics. A common handling of the flight data exchanged between ANSPs’ Air Traffic Control systems could greatly improve the European–wide homogeneity and interoperability, distributing the development costs amongst the member states.
In the last decade of the 20th century the eFDP project was setup, by its partners (AENA-Spain, NATS-UK, STNA-France, ENAV-Italy and UAC-Maastricht) and coordinated by Eurocontrol. eFDP initiated the setting–up of some specifications on flight plan processing within the air traffic control system. This common flight plan processing system should have entered into operation within the first five years of the 21st century. However this project finally disappeared in 2000.
The iTEC-eFDP flight data processing system, offshoot from the eFDP, is the result of co-operation between Aena, the DFS from Germany and NATS. In a first stage the three Service providers defined the characteristics of the future system, based on the original concepts contained and the requirements that were developed previously in the in eFDP, through a joint Programme Office located in Madrid. Once the specification and system design phases have been completed, the next development phases and future deployments will be carried out separately but keeping a high commonality.
Following this approach and without Eurocontrol coverage, iTEC-eFDP has converged towards a common system based on the current flight plan processing systems from SACTA and the German VAFORIT; as a result of the achievements, the project has developed an open and interoperable flight data processing system that can be used by the different European ATM providers. With this regard it has to be highlighted that the iTEC partners expanded their collaboration with the incorporation of LVNL-The Netherlands to the group, and it has been opened a negotiation process with NAV Portugal.
Besides the above mentioned, ITEC-eFDP has defined co-operation mechanisms with the COFLIGHT project (equivalent to iTEC-eFDP between the service providers in France, Italy and Switzerland) called ICOG (Interoperability CO-operation Group).
Also, the iTEC project is evolving for playing a key role in SJU programme, by creating a common Industry Based Platform for addressing Validation activities, and evolving its functionality for coping with SESAR new concepts.
SW FAB FABEC inter-FAB collaboration. As established in Commission Regulation (EU) No 176/2011, FABs are key enablers for enhancing cooperation between Member States in order to improve performance and create synergies. For that purpose, and in order to optimise the interface of FABs within the SES, SW FAB and FABEC will participate in several operational and technical projects of common interest. Three main projects are scheduled in the SW FAB Common Plan 2014-2020 to reinforce inter-FAB collaboration:
SW FAB free route project extension to the FABEC area which will permit to create the biggest free route area in ECAC airspace. This project will permit to improve the current interface with
LSSIP Year 2013 Portugal 26 Released Issue
Brest ACC and to satisfy with the Network Strategy Plan to deploy cross-border free route airspace projects in order to guarantee airspace to be used as a continuum;
Interface improvement with Marseille ACC; Interface improvement with Bordeaux ACC.
All these projects will permit to facilitate RP2 objectives in the area of safety, environment and capacity.
5.3 Other regional coordination projects
In order to achieve a number of the ESSIP objectives, Lisboa ACC co-ordinates some of their actions with adjacent Area Control Centres, as identified in the ESSIP Progress Report. The LSSIP will also help to foster regional co-ordination with neighbour states by identifying mutually dependent actions.
NAV Portugal continues to work with CFMU and adjacent ACCs in order to identify and develop opportunities to manage traffic flows more effectively and also to improve ATFM processes in order to ensure an efficient and full use of the capacity available in Portuguese airspace.
Regional AEFMP framework
Portugal is also involved in the “Joint AEFMP Regional Convergence and Implementation Plan. AEFMP was set up by Algeria, Spain, France, Morocco and Portugal in 1996 so as to harmonize and optimize the air navigation operations among the five countries. It aims at promoting the establishment of common regional convergence objectives in order to achieve a high operational efficiency in the rendered services. To this regard, a Joint AEFMP Plan was signed by the Civil Aviation Authorities and by the Air Navigation Service Providers in 2002.
The AEFMP is then particularly focused on the harmonization of procedures, the improvement of interoperability and the management of implementation of new systems. Accordingly, the main AEFMP objectives are:
- Harmonise the provision of the Air Traffic Services among the five countries,
- Optimise the provision and use of the surveillance function,
- Optimise the provision and the use of the radio coverage,
- Improve the voice communications between adjacent ATC units,
- Make Air traffic Management (ATM) communications more efficient and expand the exchange of data among systems,
- Harmonise the development and implementation of the various technical components of Air Traffic Control (ATC),
- Improve Air Traffic management (ATM) by optimizing airspace design and defining common procedures.
The AEFMP uses the RCIP (Regional Convergence and Implementation Plan) as tool for planning and monitoring the activities contributing to the achievement of these objectives. It provides a guide to the implementation process between Algeria, Spain, France, Morocco and Portugal and presents the harmonisation process evolution straightway and is coordinated through the following structure:
AEFMP WORKING STRUCTURE
LSSIP Year 2013 Portugal 27 Released Issue
The chairmanship of the Plan is held by one of the Member States, on a yearly rotating basis. Two meetings per each subgroup are held, both of them reporting in the corresponding two meetings of the Working Group (WG). The WG will annually report to the SC in a meeting at the beginning of each year.
The main achievements of the AEFMP have been developed in the following areas:
Technical: communications (voice: increase of cost efficiency, flexibility, availability of voice communications and improvement of radio coverage by sharing facilities and increase of availability and cost reduction in communications through AEFMP TDM network; data: Increase of safety and efficiency of ATS through implementation of OLDI links enabling reduction of verbal coordination and improvement of security and availability of Aeronautical Messaging Network through the implementation of new and secured links (AFTN/CIDIN/AMHS); ANS/Telecom: identification of quality concerns of telecommunication circuits between countries and agreement on coordinated action to cater for them and elimination of single points of failure in the AEFMP leased lines network) and surveillance (accommodation of standards and technology developments and increase safety and efficiency of ATS through radar data exchange)
Operational: airspace (regional design and implementation of airspace and aeronautical route network enhancing ATS safety and efficiency through early coordination of airspace structure and resectorisation); working methods (Increase of capacity by reducing radar separation minima and implementing RVSM. E.g. successful RSVM implantation in Morocco and Algeria, smooth and easy operational implementation of RVSM within the AEFMP area and sharing of experience on working methods and human resources); system support (efficient use of existing technical means and identification of operational requirements for future evolution at regional level); ATFM (Interchange of information and global awareness of ATFM situation in the area) and safety (Experience sharing on safety matters and the establishment of a contact list to enable cross border safety events analyses.)
Institutional: Through inter-FAB collaboration with the mail goal to extend the SES initiative to third countries, establishing a:
platform for the exchange of best practices at a regional level where the cooperation is an essential element of the optimisation of the network as a whole;
platform to develop the partnership between the EU and third countries, facilitating the jointly participation in initiatives such as the EUROMED Aviation Project.
Communications
Data communications are essential for the integration and harmonization of air navigation systems. Appropriate communication systems are required to exchange CNS/ATM related information such as radar data, flight plan coordination (OLDI, FMTP) and AFS (Aeronautical Fixed Service): AFTN, CIDIN and AMHS.
NAV Portugal is working with neighbour ANSPs from Spain, Morocco, France and Algeria to implement newer connections for modern communications networks.
A TDM network with 2 Mbps lines integrated voice and data in a very efficient (cost and capacity) solution.
An IP network is being deployed to replace the X.25 old-fashioned protocol and to comply with the EC implementing rules (i.e.: FMTP). IP links between France, Portugal and Spain are becoming mainly based on PENS (the Pan-European Network Services). IP links with Algeria and Morocco will be based on TDM network (where available) or leased lines.
ADS-B and Multilateration Implementation
NAV Portugal installed at Lisbon airport a local Multilateration system with ADS-B capability. The system was put into operational use in 2011. As outcome of the first project, a new has been launched to extend the ADS-B/Multilateration airport coverage to the Lisbon TMA. The system has been installed in 2013 and is currently in operational validation processes.
LSSIP Year 2013 Portugal 28 Released Issue
NAV Portugal has also decided to merge two previously independent projects to install, a system with ADS-B and Multilateration capability with sensors placed in Madeira and Porto Santo islands while the other will install similar systems in the north of the Lisbon FIR, under the joint project NORMAW. The installations are planned to occur in 2014 and 2015.
Portugal is committed to implement ADS-B in those parts of the airspace not covered by radar and is supporting the CRISTAL MED initiative of the CASCADE Programme.
Restructure of airspace
A Free Route Airspace concept within Lisboa FIR/UIR (FRAL), above FL 245, was implemented in 2009, with the aim to improve the constraints imposed by the fixed route structure and through the optimised use of all the airspace obtaining gains on capacity, flight efficiency, fuel savings and emission of CO2
reductions, while maintaining safety standards. Negotiations are being carried out involving Spain and Morocco for the restructuration of the Casablanca ATS routes between Iberia Peninsula and Canary Islands (dualization) to provide to the users more direct routes and optimum FL utilization.
AIRE programme
NAV Portugal is also involved in the Atlantic Interoperability Initiative to Reduce Emissions (AIRE) programme supporting SJU and FAA lead actions. Under this initiative ATM stakeholders work collaboratively to perform integrated flight trials and demonstrations validating solutions for the reduction of CO2 emissions for surface, terminal and oceanic operations to accelerate the pace of changes. The strategy is to produce constant step-wise improvements, to be implemented by each partner in order to contribute to reach the common objective. A new set of flight demo projects has been launched in 2013 to be completed in 2014 with a significant number of airlines participating.
