Fallback / Contingency Systems
London-wide air traffic control failure was caused by an unprecedented computer fault
The Independent Saturday 13 December 2014 The computer error that caused the skies over London to be cleared of planes had never been seen by engineers before, according to the company in charge of the system. Air traffic control firm NATS said the computer error had restricted air traffic controllers’ ability to deal with high volumes of aircraft. NATS said its systems were up and running again last night but that knock-on effects were still affecting airports today. Travel problems continue into weekend after glitch at air traffic control centre that transport secretary calls ‘unacceptable’!
General on FBS Main purpose of FBS is to perform in case of: 1) Emergency; Failure in main 2) Planned shorter switch-off of main 3) Longer unavailability of main 4) Replacement of main
Requirements on FBS • Constantly available • Not fail when main fails • Aligned operational context • Sufficient functionality • Functionality & HMI similar as main • Easily maintainable • Use the working positions of main • Possible to develop further
Si ATM solution • Reuse of well-proven Si ATM products • Software different from main • Same surveillance input • Functionality; MST, SNET, CWP, FDP …. • Emulate HMI of main • Main FBS connection • KVM switch • Redundant, Si ATM advanced functions
Contingency Systems 1) Clear the skies UFS Hong Kong 2) Continued reduced operations ARES Croatia 3) Continued full operations To be discussed
Hong Kong Ultimate Fallback System (UFS) • Clear the sky • One operational system and one test configuration • Single servers • Online system with 86 CWP + 6 tech. supervisors • Voice recording and playback

UFS Overview No software, computers or network equipment in common with the main system - but uses the same monitors, keyboards, mouses and loudspeakers. Each controller can individually select which system; main, fallback or UFS, that shall provide information on his/her monitors using a KVMA-switch
UFS Overview (contimued) • Surveillance data; dual serial lines + network connections. 5 radar stations and two ADS-B feeds, True multi-sensor tracking • Weather data; from radars • Flight information; is continuously fed from the main systems keeping a database of abbreviated flight plans up to date. • QNH; direct from met-office. • Safety Nets ; STCA, MSAW, APW, and APM • Controller HMI; adapted to AT3 • Recording; of data for playback and recording of voice from main VCS and from the Direct Radio Communication System (DRCS) for playback. • Monitoring and control using SNMP
UFS, Controller Functions • Same track symbols as in AT3, labels configurable • Automatic and manual coupling • Flight jurisdiction • Coordination between sectors • Flight lists (inbound/outbound), configurable • SNET alerts same presentation as in AT3 • Prediction lines • Separation probe • QDM • Weather radar presentation • Presentation filters • Maps • Pointer symbol communication • Status of interfaces
UFS Context
UFS Flight Plan Data Main Main Fallback Fallback Active Standby Active Standby • Aircraft Identity • Status • EOBT • ADEP UFS • • ADES Coordination target • • Assigned SSR-code Coordinated level • • Aircraft type Arrival runway • • Wake turbulence Notes • Owner (controlling sector) CWP • CFL • RVSM status • FIR exit point • FIR exit level
Databases synchronization At connection; clear database and download Operative flight plans. After the initial establishment of the connection, the AT3 system will send a Flight Data Message • any time a new flight is created with a Flight Plan State of Operative, • when a flight’s Flight Plan State changes to Operative, • when an existing Operative flight’s data is modified or a flight’s Flight Plan State changes to Cancelled. A flight plan becomes Operative when either the EOBT or the FIR entry time is within this VSP time of current system time.
Croatia ATM Radar Emergency System (ARES) • Clear the sky and continued reduced operations • Five operational installations + one test configuration • Two redundant configurations and four with single servers • Zagreb online with 55 CWP + one technical supervisor

ARES Surveillance Data Processing ARES is dimensioned for • 8 surveillance sources via network or serial ports. Currently six connected and seven configured. • 1.000 simultaneous fully labeled aircraft targets. • 2.000 plots or ADS-B reports per second • True multi-sensor tracking • Track broadcasted to external systems (e.g. SASS-C)
ARES Functional Overview • Flight Data Processing • Essential flight data from COOPANS and AFTN (ADEXP) • HMI similar to main system • Safety Nets • Short Term Conflict Alert (STCA) • Minimum Safe Altitude Warning (MSAW) • Area Proximity Warning (APW)
ARES Functional Overview (continued) • Information data processing • QNH from METAR/SPECI • Map data handling (editing, etc) • Operational supervisor functions • Center configuration similar as main system • TSA management • Recording and playback • System data recording and playback • System monitoring and control • Centralized monitoring from Zagreb based upon SNMP
ARES, Controller Functions • Same track symbols as in main system, labels configurable • Automatic and manual coupling • Flight jurisdiction same as main system • Coordination between sectors same as in main system • Coordination with next FIR • Flight lists (FPL and Sector), configurable • SNET alerts same presentation as in main system • Separation probe • Prediction lines (speed vector) • QDM • Presentation filters • Maps • Status of interfaces
