11 Current TOR (Dec 2014) Revised DO-343 with performance requirements for Inmarsat SBB for SATCOM Class B (enroute continental) (June 2016) Revised DO-262 with performance requirements for Inmarsat SBB for SATCOM Class B (enroute continental) (Dec 2016) some significant editorial corrections to Iridium material in DO-262 (not listed but necessary) Revised DO-343 Material for Iridium NEXT/CERTUS (December 2017) Revised DO-262 Material for Iridium NEXT/CERTUS (December 2017) 11

12 Current Request for Approval DO-343A Minimum Aviation System Performance Standard For AMS(R)S Data and Voice Communications Supporting Required Communications Performance (RCP) And Required Surveillance Performance It s an A (instead of change): Inmarsat SBB for SATCOM Class B The SBB Material includes an Inmarsat SBB-to- Iridium Block 1 in enroute interference model...analogous to the LightSquared Model approved earlier Approved June 2016, contingent on development of interference model...(continued) 12

13 Current Request for Approval (Continued) DO-343A (continued) FRAC comments were minor, approved at October 2016 Plenary with all comments resolved Publication/formatting difficulties caused us to miss the December plenary 13

14 Current Request for Approval DO-262C Minimum Operational Performance Standards for Avionics Supporting Next Generation Satellite Systems (NGSS) contains the equipment standards to implement the system requirements of DO-343A It, too, it a letter revision Activity on hardware changes and test procedures led by Radek Zaruba of Honeywell (Brno) Clarification and adjustment of values in Iridium Block 1 material based on TSO testing Inmarsat & Iridium material form the basis for the interference model discussed in DO-343A Extensive review & comment resolution at October 2016 meeting (continued) 14

15 Current Request for Approval (continued) DO-262C, Continued Some test material dependent on Inmarsat test procedures, not published until January...thus delay until March PMC, per EUROCAE Council Additional virtual plenary in Jan 2017 to work several additional issues/comments that came up in Oct-Dec time period All comments resolved in Jan meeting 15

16 Recommended Action SC-222 Recommends approval DO-343A/ED-242 DO-262C/ED

17 Continuing/Future Work Continuing work on new Iridium material As of March WGW meeting, no technical details on Iridium NEXT were available...although the first launch of 10 NEXT satellites was successful Some concern on ability to meet December 2017 dates for Iridium NEXT MASPS/MOPS......may request delay (ToR) at June Meeting. Anticipate Iridium NEXT will be for SATCOM Class B At this time, neither SC-222 nor WG-82 has a proposed solution for SATCOM Class A, so Class A work will definitely slip; more details in June SC-222 has been working with SC-228 as part of ICC effort.

44 4: ICC Report to the PMC (RTCA Paper No /PMC-1594) May 31, 2017

45 ICC Tasking from the PMC At its December 15, 2016 meeting the PMC approved the ICC s recommendations on 3 of the 4 comments provided by Don Walker, AIR-130 Surveillance Lead and major contributor to a number of RTCA MOPS The outstanding comment sought resolution of Paragraph 4 of the MOPS Guidelines A working group led by Rick Heinrich was convened to provide guidance on a recommended resolution 45

46 Recent ICC Activity The ICC s Section 4 working group held a teleconference on January 26, 2017 to discuss proposed resolutions to Paragraph 4. At issue: Should Section 4 be recommended to continue to be part of the RTCA MOPS, or had its inclusion been resolved by other changes to previous sections? At a follow-on teleconference held on February 8, 2017, the Section 4 working group reviewed a proposed re-drafted MOPS Guide Section 4 developed by Robert Grove and Clay Barber of Garmin The ICC held a teleconference on March 2, 2017 to review the Working Group s recommendation for new text in Section 4 of the MOPS Drafting Guide 46

47 Original Text of Section 4 of the MOPS Drafting Guide 4 AIRCRAFT OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS When equipment is designed and manufactured to meet these MOPS, and it is properly installed in an aircraft in accordance with applicable installation and operational approval guidance and regulations, it is expected that all aircraft level functional and operational performance criteria will be met. The equipment when installed contributes to the operation and performance of the MOPS functions at the aircraft level. Other aircraft-level contributions such as redundant or additional equipment may also be required. The equipment design should consider the types and characteristics of aircraft for which installation of this equipment is intended as well as the MOPS function at an aircraft level, and the equipment should be designed such that the equipment s contribution to aircraftlevel operational and functional requirements is adequate. 47

48 Rationale for Changing Section 4 In practice, the intent and the intended user of the information seems to be widely misunderstood. In reviewing a subset of MOPS documents, some contain Shall-statements within this section, yet this section is rarely if ever used by the FAA within TSO or other documents. A review of several MOPs documents revealed the following: DO-229E GPS/SBAS very small section titled Operational Characteristics that primarily references the AIM, AC , AC , AC , and AC DO-253C GPS/GBAS couple pages titled Operational Performance Requirements that includes discussion of Alert Presentation, Guidance Reference Point, and Missed Approach Guidance DO-317B ASA (aka ADS-B In traffic) does not include anything resembling MOPS drafting guide Aircraft Operational Performance Characteristics section DO-334 AHRS does not include anything resembling MOPS drafting guide Aircraft Operational Performance Characteristics section DO-346 AeroMACS couple pages titled Equipment Operational Performance Requirements that includes discussion of Power Inputs, Displays, Communication Controls, Equipment Operating Functions, System Operational Indication, and Equipment Operating Conditions as well as test procedures for each of these topics. Includes Shall statements. DO-358 FIS-B does not include anything resembling MOPS drafting guide Aircraft Operational Performance Characteristics section DO-361 FIM does not include anything resembling MOPS drafting guide Aircraft Operational Performance Characteristics section 48

49 Proposed MOPS Drafting Guide Section 4 AIRCRAFT OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS 4 This section contains no design requirements. The purpose of this section is to provide useful considerations regarding equipment designed to meet these MOPS when that equipment is installed and used on an aircraft to meet operational requirements. For the most part, equipment designed to meet these MOPS is expected to meet aircraft operational requirements when installed in an aircraft. However, certain requirements may be affected by specific airspace or operational requirements which should be considered by the equipment manufacturer when designing the equipment. In some cases, there may be multiple classes of equipment corresponding to different operational requirements or in some cases, operational requirements may drive a need for additional equipment. The equipment design should consider the types and characteristics of aircraft, and the airspace in which they are intended to operate, for which installation of this equipment is intended in addition to the MOPS function at an aircraft level. The equipment should be designed such that the equipment s contribution to aircraft-level operational and functional requirements is adequate. 49

50 ICC Recommendation That the PMC approve the ICC s proposed changes to Section 4, Aircraft Operational Characteristics (Retitled), in our MOPS Drafting Guide The ICC notes with appreciation that the PMC has requested, as recommended by the ICC in December, that our Special Committees provide any comments that those SCs might have on the SPR/Interop/MASPS and MOPS Drafting Guides by the June 2017 PMC meeting, so that, with appropriate coordination with EUROCAE for the development of joint documents, a 5-year update to these Drafting Guides might be developed in a manner to be determined by the PMC 50

61 61 7A: SC-206 Sub-group 4 (SG-4) Minimum Operational Performance Standards (MOPS) for Eddy Dissipation Rate (EDR) Reporting RTCA Paper No /PMC-1598 Scope Comparison to MOPS Drafting Guide Presentation to RTCA PMC Membership May 31, 2017 Sub-group Co-chairs Tammy Farrar FAA Bill Watts - DAL

62 62 Current Draft Document: Purpose This document defines the minimum requirements applicable to in situ Eddy Dissipation Rate (EDR) turbulence computational algorithms (hereafter referred to as the EDR algorithm). In situ, as used herein, refers to calculations that use aircraft-derived observations as input. The requirements of this document apply to developers of EDR algorithms. These requirements specify algorithm output characteristics that should be beneficial to manufacturers, implementers and other users of the EDR algorithm, such as flight crews, dispatchers, wake vortex models, meteorological forecasters and forecast models. Collectively these output characteristics define a set of requirements that apply to a universal set of EDR algorithms. These requirements are the means of assuring that the EDR algorithm output for a given aircraft will be comparable that of other aircraft, within a range of accepted uncertainty, for the same turbulence conditions encountered in routine aeronautical operation. Any regulatory application of this document is the sole responsibility of appropriate governmental agencies.

63 Our approach has been to focus on the EDR algorithm, independent of: o o Document Scope How the calculations are done, because there is no single right way ; that is, there is no Gold Standard algorithm How the EDR algorithm is implemented ( installed ) in an application, because the algorithm can be implemented in various applications Because of this, we ve defined a very narrow scope: o o Only the performance of the algorithms in the Testing Environment is in scope The real-world data inputs/outputs, software and applications are out of scope 63

64 64 Scope comparison to MOPS Drafting Guide Since the scope is focused on the performance of the algorithms in the Testing Environment : o We need developers to adhere to the tests as defined (including highly specified test input data) and not deviate. This conflicts with the Drafting Guide. Example: Drafting Guide Section 1.7 (& similarly wording in Sec 2.4.3) state that specific test procedures are cited, but it is recognized that other methods may be preferred. Since the real-world data inputs/outputs, software and applications are out-ofscope, there are many parts of the required verbiage in the MOPS Drafting Guide that are not applicable, especially in sections 2.1 and 2.3: o o Section 2.1.1: Airworthiness. In the design and manufacture of the equipment, the manufacturer shall provide for installation so as to no impair the airworthiness of the aircraft. This applies to the equipment on the aircraft where the algorithm resides within a software application (e.g., ACMS), not to the algorithm itself. This type of example applies to numerous parts of the Drafting Guide, such as Environmental Conditions, Equipment Performance, and others.

65 MOPS Drafting Guide Issues Testing each/every EDR implementation in installed application is not feasible: o o Each aircraft type with each different application could be required to be tested. Massive effort! Some of the information needed to test the algorithm on each airframe type is proprietary to the manufacturers. If the intent of the Drafting Guide is to make documents standardized and more navigable with standard section/sub-section titles, then we find that we would be changing section/sub-section titles or stating they are nonapplicable to be more in line with our scope. 65 o o We believe that doing this will result in confusion to any developer wanting to use the document. Two of the three major EDR algorithm developers are on the SG writing the documents, and they are both adamant about this point. In addition, the SG includes airline industry representatives who agree, as well.

66 66 TORs Product: Minimum Operational Performance Standards (MOPS) for Eddy Dissipation Rate (EDR) SC-206 Sub-group 4 is going to recommend a change of the document type from a MOPS to a Guidelines Document Product: Guidelines for In Situ Eddy Dissipation Rate (EDR) Algorithm Performance Scope: Define requirements as necessary for input parameters and computational methodologies to facilitate the calculation of EDR by various algorithms such that the outputs are operationally comparable. (No Change) Envision Use of Deliverable: The EDR Guidelines Document will be used to standardize the output of various EDR algorithms to provide accurate and operationally comparable results.
