Jahresbericht '91 der Bundesanstalt fuer Flugsicherung (Activities Report of the Federal Administration for Flight Safety (Germany))

Statistical information, technological advances and measures taken by German administration in the flight safety area are presented. The role of cooperation between transportation and defense departments was outlined. Air traffic service routes were created or modified in order to remedy to traffic increase. Standard flight safety processes were introduced at former East Germany airports. Safety management services for Netherlands, Belgium and Federal Republic of Germany decided the integration of their existing air traffic control system in a common project for optimization of radar information use, by means of radar data interchange network. Safety improvements, obtained with instrument and microwave ranging systems and modifications in information and data transfer facilities were reported. Design phase of a monopulse secondary radar subsystem in the framework of the radar modernization program was achieved by introducing critical design review concept. An integration test between sensor data processor and radar message conversion and distribution equipment was performed. Feasibility of a short term conflict alert system was examined and the American en route automated radar tracking system was chosen. A departure coordination system for reduction of coordination cost between toward and approach control and area control center workstations was implemented at the Frankfurt airport. A weather data and information visualization system with light waveguide transmission was implemented at new Munich airport. Statistical information about air traffic in Germany is given.
