| Abstract | The volume presents the results of the performance evaluation of the Satellite-Based Advanced Air Traffic Management System (SAATMS). The evaluation established the capacity, safety, and delay performance of the system for the Los Angeles Basin terminal area operation. The results of the performance evaluation were compared to the established performance specification. SAATMS provides capacity exceeding the highest traffic demand projected for 1995 while meeting the delay specification and maintaining the safety level provided by the present system. An evaluation of enroute safety is presented, along with a comparison of the enroute safety provided by the present system and a Ground-Based Advanced Air Traffic Management System (GAATMS). The system and subsystem parameters which influence the functioning of SAATMS are discussed, as are the functional relationships between the system performance measures and the system and subsystem parameters. |
