Book Description
In the evolution of Air Traffic Control certain important phases can be identified. Until recently, these phases were usually characterized by the advent of a particular technical or technological development. A first phase which roughly covered the period 1930-1950 was characterized by manual operation, visual surveillance, time separation of aircraft, the use of radio for communication and low frequency aids for navigation. A second phase which extended, say, from the late 1950's until about 1970 was essentially characterized by the introduction and extensive use of two techniques: radar, both primary and secondary, for surveillance and VOR/DME for navigation. Then, from the late 1960's onwards, the introduction of the computer in to ATC opens a new era: flight plans and radar data processing, synthetic data displays and digital communications. In some systems, automation is already providing systematic back-up for the controller and this phase of automation is only just starting. In the early 1970's, a new and completely different phase started in parallel and is continuing. It is a phase not related to any particular technological developments but one born of concern shown by both the users of the airspace and the authorities responsible for the ATC services for economy and concern expressed by the community regarding the conservation of natural resources, in general, and the impact which further development of aviation can have on ecology, in particular. In this era, demands and constraints issued from various sources are no longer simple and may even contain some degree of contradiction. Consequently, present overall requirements for aviation operation have reached a high level of complexity.

Book Description
This book fills a vital gap in the literature on air traffic control. It gives an insight into the UK ATC system, including systems and principles and airspace management, which also has a worldwide application. The most recent advances are discussed including application of secondary surveillance radar, application of automation, airborne threat alert and collision avoidance systems - Mode 'S' and Monopulse SSR. Arnold Field also examines the collaboration, for safety reasons and to ensure the most economic use of national resources, between civil and military authorities.

Engel, H. E. ;MTR-2372F19628-73-C-0001AF-691AESDTR-72-334(*air traffic control systems, interfaces), management engineering, civil aviation, military requirements, operationInterfaces between military and civilian users of the airspace are shown to exist in four major areas: agreements, operations, organization and equipment. The interfaces permit safe operation of civilian aircraft in the common ATC system and allow operation of military aircraft in both the common system and within the requirements of special military command/control systems. The paper does a detailed examination of these four areas. The paper concludes with an examination of current trends in ATC system concepts. (Author).
