PROCTOR - Prototyping and Validation Exercise with Evaluation of Concepts to Meet User Requirements
Overview
Background & policy context:
Air traffic is increasing significantly thus a future European Air Traffic Management system is important for improved efficiency and safety. A functional architecture requirements analysis is an essential and mandatory step for the development of a future European ATM system. The more conceptual work of Projects, ADORA and FACTOR need a validation exercise as a follow-on activity.
Objectives:
The main objectives of the PROCTOR study are to define a prototyping and general ATM concept validation exercise and to develop a specific validation methodology suitable for concepts at subsystem level for a chosen satellite application.
Methodology:
PROCTOR will involve:
- Development of a validation methodology for a chosen satellite application.
- Analysis of the applicability of different validation methodologies across a range of functional concepts.
- Development of a business plan to enable the ATM provider to assess the technical and commercial risks associated with any proposal for a full validation of concepts.
