Air Traffic Control

Abstract

The report discusses the activities under way in Division 4 that are funded mainly by the Air Force. The progress on two other ATC tasks, namely, the preparation of a Technical Development Plan for the Discrete Address Beacon System for the Faa (OSEM) and studies relating to Fourth Generation ATC System Concepts for the DoT/Transportation Systems Center, is reported separately. A highlight of this quarter was the successful conclusion of the testing phase of a laser warning system for Logan Airport.
