Summary
Avionics systems have evolved over the history of flight from very simple turn and slip indicators and whiskey compasses to the advanced flat panel displays of today, enabled by digital technology and computer generated graphics. Such technologies have enabled visualization of the aircraft's intended 4- dimensional flight path both on the ground and in the air, but for the most part, are not being used in concert with one another. Likewise, the concept of 4-dimensional trajectory-based operations has existed for some time. The Next Generation Air Transportation System (NGATS), being crafted by the U.S. Joint Planning and Development Office (JPDO) and Europe's SESAR program are expected to rely heavily on such concepts. Flight data processors on the ground and Flight Management Systems in aircraft have progressed extensively toward trajectory modeling principles, but mostly independent of one another. There are many important questions to be answered if we are to reap the full potential of modern day digital avionics and associated trajectory-based systems, including: What is the definition of a 4-dimensional trajectory for aeronautics and astronautics How will this change Air Traffic Management, Communications, Navigation, and Surveillance Can the commercial, regional, and general aviation, space and unmanned markets develop strategies to insure the required investments are made How will the military and defense communities be impacted as they continue to develop greater interoperability and tighter integration with the evolving civil airspace system What will original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and suppliers have to do to be ready with equipment that provides appropriate capabilities What will the roles and responsibilities of the Air Navigation Service Provider (ANSP), flight deck and airlines flight operations centers be with respect to management of the 4-dimensional trajectory The Technical and Professional Education Programs will incorporate hundreds of papers and dozens of tutorials from international researchers, innovators, engineers, and designers who are creating the products, services, and support to enable 4-dimensional trajectory-based operations. We will hold panel discussions with noted engineering and management experts, and provide keynote presentations by government and industry leaders shaping our future world in the NGATS timeframe. If you are involved in avionics, aircraft, unmanned and space systems, or air traffic management, join us and participate in the 27th DASC to help influence the direction of digital avionics and systems technology.
