The primary goal of the Airspace Systems Program (ASP) is to develop
revolutionary concepts, capabilities, and technologies that will enable
significant increases in the capacity, efficiency and flexibility of our
National Airspace System (NAS). In pursuit of this goal, the ASP has
aligned its portfolio to directly address the Air Traffic Management
(ATM) research needs of the Next Generation Air Transportation System
(NextGen) Initiative as defined by the multi-federal agency Joint Planning
and Development Office (JPDO).
Consistent with NextGen capabilities, ASP will focus on two major NextGen
ATM projects: Airspace and Airportal. The NextGen-Airspace Project
will focus on developing capabilities in traffic flow management,
dynamic airspace configuration, separation assurance, and airspace super
density operations, which are supported by cross cutting technical areas
of trajectory synthesis, prediction, and uncertainty, performance based
services, and system-level design, analysis and simulation tools. The
NextGen-Airportal Project will focus on developing airportal and
terminal capabilities in three areas: safe and efficient surface
operations, coordinated arrival/departure operations, and airportal
transition and integration management. Research in the two projects will
be integrated for gate-to-gate solutions.
