1 irspace Volumes & Sectorisation Module 13 ctivity 9 European irspace Concept Workshops for PBN Implementation

2 Overview OBJECTIVE This module will provide an good understanding of irspace volumes and Sectorisation supporting TM irspace Concept Workshop 2

3 Three GOLEN RULES irspace Volumes protect the IFR Flight paths. They are esigned FTER the routes have been designed. Routes should not be designed so as to fit into pre-existing irspace Volumes. Only delineate as much airspace volume as needed. irspace Concept Workshop 3

5 TM TM Terminal control area control area normally established at the confluence of TS routes in the vicinity of one or more major aerodromes. [oc. 4444] En-route TM CTR irspace Concept Workshop 5

6 Terminal irspace Terminal irspace (T) is a generic term describing airspace which is part of the airspace continuum. Terminal airspace surrounds an airport, and it is an airspace within which air traffic services are provided. It encompasses all the various terminologies currently used throughout the ECC region. Such airspace predominantly contains traffic operating along Terminal Routes or, to a lesser extent, TS Routes of the RN. [Explanatory note: The above description is aimed at including TM, CT, CTR, TZ airspace classification or any other nomenclature used to describe the airspace around an airport].

16 Geographical Sectorisation dvantages Controller can fully exploit the space available in sector to manipulate best levels for inbounds/outbounds and expedite climb and descent without need for co-ordination. Easier to balance workload between sectors. Can be less demanding in terms of the Radar isplay and TC system Relatively easily to describe operational instructions for TC areas of responsibility. isadvantages Controller handles mixed traffic i.e. arrival, departure and transit traffic. In instances where the sector division runs along the runway centre-line, departing aircraft departing in different directions may be controlled by different controllers after take-off. (Effective mitigation can be provided by putting appropriate procedures in place). In cases where an aircraft is required to transit more than one geographic sector in the Terminal irspace, this can add to complexity by requiring additional co-ordination. irspace Concept Workshop 16

17 Functional Sectorisation dvantages Controller handles one traffic type i.e. either departures or arrivals because sector defined as a function of task. Usually, all eparting aircraft are on the same frequency after take-off. In some configurations, can prove more flexible to operate. isadvantages Vertical/Lateral limits of sector can prove overly restrictive as one (vertical) band is unlikely to cater for all aircraft performance types. ifficult to balance workload between sectors especially where departure and arrival peaks do not coincide. Can be demanding in terms of the Radar isplay and TC System Operating instructions for TC can be difficult to formulate with respect to areas of responsibility; irspace Concept Workshop 17
