Abstract In 2008 the FAA tasked the Volpe Center with the development of a government owned processing package capable of performing wake detection, characterization and tracking. The current paper presents the background, progress, and capabilities to date on the Volpe Center developed Tangential Velocity Adaptive Spectral (TVAS) wake processing package. Since TVAS is intended to supplement rather than duplicate the LMCT processing, the decision was made to use the influential work of the German Aerospace Center (DLR)10,11 as the baseline and supplement it with additional enhancements.
