Complex Procedure Development Plan LAAS Complex Procedure Development Plan for the Memphis Terminal Area 20/21 November 2002 Bob Beal ISI/AND-720
Meeting Overview LAAS Program Commissioning 6 Cat I LRIP Systems Memphis, Phoenix, Houston, Seattle, Chicago, Juneau LAAS Program Office in Process of Awarding Development Contract One Essential Benefit Users Expect from LAAS is Ability to Support Complex Terminal Operations Purpose of this Meeting is to Begin to Define LAAS Procedures for MEMPHIS
WAAS and LAAS
LAAS - Extends Precision Approach Guidance from 10 to 20NM Category I, II, III Precision Approach Capability with Extended Range - Extends Precision Approach Guidance from 10 to 20NM - Provides PVT Coverage to 60NM Multiple Runway Coverage One LAAS Will Provide Precision Approach Service for Multiple Runway Ends at an Airport Advanced Approaches/Departures To Avoid Obstacles, Noise Sensitive Areas, or Congested Airspace Remote Coverage Augments Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) in Various Locations (Terrain, Traffic Volume) Aircraft Surface Navigation Possible Data Input for Surface Movement (Supports)

Procedure Development Process AND-720 (Dave Peterson) has been Meeting with LAAS Users, Air Traffic Representatives, and Procedure Developers in Memphis, Chicago, and Juneau to Better Define Anticipated LAAS Benefits Understand Desired LAAS Operations Establish What the LAAS Operational Integration Team Can Do to Implement Those Operations Goal is to Develop Consensus on FAA Projects to Implement Desired LAAS Operations
Potential LAAS Benefits Achieve Consistent, Accurate, Repeatable Performance Expand Closely Spaced Parallel Runway Ops Support Advanced/Complex Procedures Support Surface Movement Applications Eliminate Need for In-Aircraft Procedure Database Support Extended Arrival Procedures
Potential LAAS Benefits Support RNP Operations Support Adjacent Airport Operations De-conflict Airspace Ability to Use Single LAAS System to Support Approaches at Multiple Runway Ends Improved Terminal Area Surveillance Through Improved Navigation Accuracies Reduce Aircraft Separation Requirements
Potential LAAS Benefits Reduce Air Traffic Controller Workload Reduce Obstacle Clearance Requirements Ability to Change or Create Approach Procedures without Infrastructure Changes Ability to Implement Multiple, Segmented, or Variable Glide Slopes Support Runway Incursion Avoidance Systems Compress the Density of Terminal Operations
Desired LAAS Capabilities CAT II/III LAAS Complex Terminal Operations Arrivals Approaches Departures Missed Approaches Adjacent Airport Operations Linear FAS/Simultaneous Parallel Approaches RNP Operations Surface Navigation 4-Dimensional Guidance
Chicago Improve Triple Convergent Procedure Taking Three Phased Approach Replace Vectored Approach to 9L with Guided LAAS Procedure Using RF-Leg Reduce Aircraft Separation Requirements for Entire Procedure VMC IMC Will Also Consider Potential Missed Approach Improvements
