ESAVS 2010

Berlin, Germany

16 - 18 March 2010

Call for Papers

organised by the

Introduction

The increasing volume of air traffic requires next generation surveillance technologies and procedures operating both in airspace and at airports in support of SESAR 4D-trajectory/ASAS and A-SMGCS operational concepts.

This implies the need for accurate and high update rate sensor technologies such as wide area (WAM) and airport multilateration (MLAT) and ADS-B position broadcast. Innovative solutions for guidance and control functionalities on airport surface, new system architectures, algorithms for multisensor data fusion and tracking have to co-operate efficiently with legacy infrastructures such as ASR and SMR.

Since the successful ESAVS 2007 symposium in Bonn/Germany and the subsequent successful ESAV’08 in Capri/Italy, these technologies have gained momentum and are being deployed in large scale all over the world.

ESAVS 2010 in Berlin/Germany will carry forward this momentum and focus on international implementation and operational use of MLAT/WAM/ADS-B as well as on research and development, deployment and certification.

ESAVS 2010 is dedicated to provide up-to-date information to experts and decision makers in the world of sensor development, tracking, sensor data fusion, avionics and airport operations as well as air traffic control procedures and technology.

Main Topics

The Symposium will focus on:

• Implementation and operational use of MLAT/WAM/ADS-B
• User requirements, standards and approval/certification
  of applications
• Systems, new system concepts, architecture
• Technologies and subsystems
• Radio field aspects
• Testing and analysis
• Integrity monitoring
• Operational aspects
• Simulations and Siting Issues
• Future ATS-Concept Potentials

Language

The language of the Symposium will be English.
