6.2 Capacity Driven <strong>Concept</strong> <strong>Baseline</strong><br />
<strong>The</strong> sequence of transition steps presented here defines one of many possible paths that<br />
the system operational concept and architecture could follow through the year 2015. This<br />
particular path is constructed with the objective of achieving the capacity goals stated in<br />
Section 2, using the team’s best judgment of what system enhancement steps could be<br />
taken during this period with available and emerging CNS/ATM technologies. This<br />
transition path, and most of the individual steps within it, have not been validated, and<br />
thus the quantification of the system capacity impact cannot be estimated for each step.<br />
Also, the baseline set of selected technologies will need to be subjected to requirements<br />
validation and system tradeoffs. <strong>The</strong> transition path, however, is a reasonable baseline<br />
from which to initiate the top level operational and technology trades that must be<br />
performed for initial concept validation, followed by the detailed validation studies that<br />
precede eventual implementation. Thus it supports the process presented in Figure 2.2,<br />
namely the research and development that must be initiated now to move the system<br />
successfully through 2015.<br />
6.2.1 NAS Flow <strong>Management</strong><br />
Figure 6.5 shows the proposed concept transition path for national and local traffic flow<br />
management. <strong>The</strong> diagram shows two parallel paths, one starting at the national level and<br />
the other starting at the airport level. <strong>The</strong> two paths merge in the third transition step into<br />
a coordinated traffic flow management system. <strong>The</strong> improvements implied in each<br />
transition step are detailed below.<br />
