How much “insurance”is needed to providecritical Infrastructureprotection?

Drivers• Workload within interference area• Sustaining separation

• Radar• Non-radar

• Assuring safe recovery and landing of aircraft in IMC• Minimizing disruption of air transportation to reduce threat• Minimum investment for users in backup capability• Some benefit to be realized for carrying redundant capability

• Training reduction• Relief on dual redundant carriage of avionics• Dispatch reliability

• Current rules for navigation Part 91 – capable of navigation and landing as flight planned

General Assumptions

• DoD needs continued TACAN/DME/ILS• Precision landing capability (ILS) at least on one runway at

those airports necessary for recovery of aircraft during aninterference event

• All Category II/III ILS systems retained• New runway landing capabilities can be served by ILS,

GPS(WAAS) or GPS(LAAS)• Approach lights retained at where Category I ILS’s shut off• Sufficient VOR’s retained for VOR-VOR direct navigation

and landing with VOR non-precision approach at selectedairports (minimum operating network)

• DME’s retained to support INS/FMS redundancy• Nav coverage richer where surveillance is limited

• CONUS gaps• Alaska• Offshore

Issues During an Interference Event• Response time in detecting size of service volume disruption

• Will controllers know size of interference area quickly totactically make adjustments

• How do pilots get the information to make route changedecisions

• Controller workload• Pilot workload• Response time to find and shut down interference• Dispatch out of, through and into areas of know interference• Recovery of “operational contingency” and “backup” aircraft

caught in interference area• Terrain avoidance in interference area in IMC

• En route low altitude RNAV routes• Terminal maneuvering

• Procedural separation in absence of navigation

Size (volume) of Interferenceis a critical to extent of retainedground-based infrastructure

Options for backup

• Current mix of navigation and landing aids

• Reduced number of navigation and landing aids• What is retained?• Which ones and where?• How are they linked as a system?

• New capability physically separated from SATNAV• Low-cost inertial• LORAN X• Other technology

• No Backup• Redundant capability• Backup capability• Operational Contingency

?

Operational ContingencyProcedural methods dealing with interference eventsExamples may include:

• VMC alternate for landing• Flight in radar coverage (GA) – radar vectors

clear of area or to VMC conditions• Depart and maintain VFR until clear of interference• Squawk NONAV code• etc.

Designed to provide pilot options in the event of interferencenot unlike NORDO, where controllers can expect certain actions by the pilot.

Provides limited relief from carrying a backup capability incertain airspace.

Backup Capability• Avionics carried on board the aircraft to navigate and land

within an interference area. • The backup capability allows dispatch and departure

within an area of interference through modification to theflight planned route.

• Pilots can fly through areas of interference using ground-based navigation aids.

• Pilots can land at designated recovery airports equipped to support NPA and ILS approaches.

• Some loss of efficiency or inability to reach the filed destination may occur

• Less direct routing• Destination may only be served by SATNAV

Backup Capability (Con’t)

• VOR minimum operating network• ILS on at least the primary (best wind) runway for the airport• Multiple runway ILS’s removed, lighting retained• Some ILS’s retained at delay constrained airports• All CAT II/III ILS’s retained until GPS (LAAS) delivered• DME’s retained

• Operationally:• VOR departure procedure• VOR-VOR direct en route• VOR non-precision approach • VOR radial to ILS final• Radar vectors to ILS final

Military• Continued use of TACAN and ILS

En Route and AirportVOR’s may be relocated at replacementtime to improve coverageand reduce outer markers

VOR Proposal for Minimum Operating Network

• Victor Airways and Jet Routes begin reduction in 2007leading to no airways by 2012

• Replaced with VOR-VOR direct aids and Airport VOR aids• Airport VOR supports either VOR NPA, or VOR radial to ILS• Minimum Operational Network of VOR’s attained by 2012

No location in the CONUS further than 75 miles from VORat 5,000 feet AGL line-of-site

• Mountainous locations treated differently due to altitude andicing concerns

• Replace/relocate MON VOR’s and reduce impact of maskingradials from 2008 through 2012

LORAN as a backup

Best theoretical Part 91 backup• RNAV backup for RNAV • Integrated antenna with GPS• One sensor in an integrated avionics package• Capable of providing alternative independent path for

differential corrections for GPS• Coverage in mountainous terrain for navigation and

differential correction for GPS

But….

LORAN X

• Not the LORAN C avionics as flown today• Existing installed avionics only useful for en route nav• Existing avionics declining as GPS overtakes panel space

in aircraft • Must be able to support non-precision approach• Meets availability though all-in-view receiver

• Each transmitter stick used instead of chains• H-field antenna for improved signal-to-noise (p-static)• Affordable as card in GPS box, not stand alone receiver• Avionics in 5 – 7 years (no MASPS/MOPS or TSO)

LORAN must be able to support non-precisionApproaches to be a credible backup to GPS

Alaska and Coastal Long-range NDBs

IMC operations in Alaska and offshore airspace requireprocedural separation dependent upon navigation beingavailable.

Low-level helicopter operations in the Gulf and terrainand coverage in Alaska

Redundant Capability• Avionics carried provide equivalent capabilities as

SATNAV, including RNAV and RNP to dispatch and fly to planned destination independent of interference.

• Pilots can fly through areas of interference using INS/FMSwith updates provided by DME and VOR/DME.

• Pilots can fly RNAV non-precision approaches to landing or to an ILS final approach. Issue:

INS or INS/FMS departuresin IMC relating to loss ofprecision over time - ability to fly departure procedures
