Reality of Our System Today Need for change
Need change The different regional /national ATM modernization programme the fundamental principles but can not explain all details in same way They are developed and governed and funded in the context of, and for, different audiences/ stakeholders/ culture They face different practical issues in terms of transition from legacy, specific business case etc This results in a large collection of disconnected and/or competing descriptions
A window to future Global framework is needed to ensure: Safety is maintained and enhanced. ATM improvement programmes are harmonized Barriers to future efficiency and environmental gains are removed, at reasonable cost 6
A window to future Investment certainty is required for: Operators Infrastructure providers Equipment manufacturers US$ 120 billion is to be spent on air transportation systems in the next ten years world-wide. 7
A window to future Regulatory approval process must be outlined Support States in introduction of significant changes 8

PIA 1:Greener Airports India ATM Initiatives Improved Airport Accessibility Indian SBAS System GAGAN PBN Improved Runway Safety ASMGCS in Six Airports Improved Airport Operations through A- CDM Airport CDM- OSCET OTP Improved Traffic Flow through Runway metering AMAN in Delhi Mumbai and Chennai GBAS
GAGAN- Indian SBAS
GAGAN- GPS Aided Geo Augmentation Navigation GAGAN has entered The Final Operations Phase The first milestone is to deliver an RNP 0.1 capability provided over the Indian FIR as specified in the ICAO specification. The second milestone is to deliver APV1 service as specified in the ICAO specification over 90% of the Indian land mass. The certified GAGAN system will be available by June 2013
Benefits of GAGAN GAGAN Foot Print Gains GAGAN is being developed to meet the ICAO GNSS SARPs and it will be interoperable with WAAS,EGNOS, and MSAS. GAGAN SBAS will be a significant addition to navigation capabilities in the entire South-East ASIA Will lead to greater Regional cooperation (interoperability, increased service areas)
Efficiency Initiatives PBN Implementation 2008 RNAV SID/STARS implemented at Mumbai, Delhi and Ahmadabad 2010 RNAV SID/STARS implemented at Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Kolkata 2011 RNP-1 ARR/DEP procedures for Calicut, Cochin in development RNAV 5 En-Route Project between Delhi-Mumbai planned 20 LNAV/VNAV procedures under development
A-CDM initiatives Operational Safety and Capacity Enhancement Team ( OSCET) An Airport CDM initiative by IATA, AAI and Airport operator at Mumbai and Delhi functional since 2010 resulting in- Significant improvements in Runway safety Reduction in Runway Occupancy Time (ROT) Improvements in On Time Performance (OTP) To facilitate CDM regular meetings of ANSPs, Airlines and Airport operators are held at all major airports.

PIA 3 :Optimum Capacity and Flexible flights India ATM Initiatives Improved Operations through Enhanced En route Trajectories Improved flow performance through planning PBN FUA AMAN INSPIRE Chennai Upper ACC implementation underway C-ATFM implementation Air traffic situational Awareness Nation wide Radar Surveillance ADS-B as supplement to Radar coverage Integration of sensor information
FUA-Civil Military Cooperation Proactive FUA program Three ATS routes ( L509, M875 and N877) made available for dynamic flight planning through military areas to facilitate smooth flow of air traffic to and from Afghanistan airspace Four entry/exit way points at common FIR boundary to support independent flows Conditional arrival/departure routes through Special Use Airspace at Delhi, Chennai and Cochin Resources Sharing Radar information sharing mechanism between AAI and IAF ( Delhi, Tambram, Bangalore and Kolkata ) Provision of Navigation Aids at defense airfields by AAI
PIA3: Capacity Initiatives Upper Airspace Harmonization-Chennai Project Chennai Upper ACC Chennai (VOMM) FIR airspace restructured based on four layer concept-upper ACC, lower ACC, Terminal APP and regional towers. Integrated Radar Coverage Provided with overlapping surveillance (9 radars & 14 ADS-B (planned) integrated) and communication facilities Facilitates smooth and efficient flow of enroute traffic at optimum levels Application of Uniform standards, procedures and separation minima for seamless ATM Similar restructuring of airspace is planned for Mumbai, Delhi and Kolkata FIR.
PIA3: Chennai Upper Airspace Sectors
Existing and Planned Radar coverage
PIA3: Central -ATFM Demand and Capacity balancing through CDM to enhance the traffic flow at six major airports 1 st phase of C-ATFM will be completed in 2012 Strategic, Pre-Tactical and Tactical ATFM and CDM capabilities at six major airports in phase 1. Subsequently ATFM will be extended to other airports In Phase 2 regional ATFM integration with the Indian C-ATFM envisaged
