Impact of Automatic Dependent Surveillance and Navigation System Accuracy on Collision Risk on Intersecting Tracks

H. James Rome, Rudolph Kalafus

Abstract:	An analytic model for evaluation of collision risk on intersecting tracks based on geometry, flow rates, and distribution of the errors in navigation and reporting is discussed. The concept of capacity of a track intersection is developed and utilized as a primary measure of effectiveness in evaluating the effects of an Automatic Dependent Surveillance System (ADS) and the navigation errors on ADS system performance. Numerical trade-off studies were carried out to demonstrate the usefulness of the model.
