7. ETFMS - EN Physical view

8. EN - Data Functions (1) Data Collection Data Forwarding
Interface to various ATS configurations at different sites
Receive Position Data (tracks) and Flight Plan Data
Data Forwarding
Connection Management, Frame Assembly
Data Replication to several recipients

9. EN - Data Functions (2) Data Processing for CPRs
Convert data to common representation (ASTERIX CAT062)
Transform Coordinates into WGS84
Maintain Track and Flight Plan Database
User Controlled Data Reduction
Update Tracks and Flight Plan data Id fields

10. ETFMS - Data Items (1) Mandatory Asterix CAT062 Data Items for CPRs
Aircraft Identification (callsign)
Flight Level
Aircraft Position
ADEP / ADES
EOBT (*)
Mode 3/A SSR Code
(*) Highly desirable

11. ETFMS - Data Items (2) Optional Asterix CAT062 Data Items
IFPS_Flight_ID
24bit ICAO Aircraft address
Track Status
Aircraft Velocity
Rate of Climb and Descent
Rate of Turn

12. ETFMS - Interfaces (1) Supported Input Data Formats
ASTERIX CAT062 (v0.17 or v1.3 up to v1.9)
FSA (*) ADEXP
(*) Needed in case flight data items (e.g. ADEP, ADES, EOBT, IFPLID) are not present in the position data stream and/or to filter out VFR and OAT traffic.

13. ETFMS - Interfaces (2) Supported Connection Types TCP (¹) UDP (¹) X25
HDLC Datagram
‘RMCDE’
‘ARTAS’
AFTN - Async (²)
(¹) Preferred
(²) In case FSA messages are needed

14. ETFMS - PROCESS (1)
Agreement on the technical interfaces between EN and ATC system - ICD
Signature of Letter of Agreements (LoA), related to
Data provision
Equipment (ownership, installation, etc)
Financial conditions

15. ETFMS - PROCESS (2) Adaptations, if any, in ATC systems
Purchase and installation by NM (CFMU) of EN
Validation of received data (CPRs) in NMOC (CFMU) test system
Move of received data (CPRs) to NMOC (CFMU) operational system
FAM activation (after agreement with ANSP)

16. CPR Operational Evaluation
ETFMS - PROCESS (3)
CPR Operational Evaluation
Provide live data to ETFMS Shadow/test system.
NMOC (CFMU) Evaluates and provides evaluation report to ANSP.
Improvements may be required.
Go-No-Go decision.
Agree date to send CPRs to ETFMS Operational system.

17. ETFMS - PROCESS (4) Costs NM (CFMU) provides Entry Node.
NM (CFMU) provides network connection.
NMOC (CFMU) Operates Entry Node.
ANSP is requested to:
Supply space for EN rack in the computer room
Supply power for the EN
Adapt software of its ATC systems if required
Provide customs/import information for the EN equipment
