CNS/ATM AVIONICS ARCHITECTURES SUPPORTING NEXTGEN/SESAR CONCEPTS ARINC660B

This document identifies and describes the aircraft avionics capability necessary for operation in the evolving Communications Navigation Surveillance/Air Traffic Management (CNS/ATM) environment expected for the FAA NextGen program, Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR) program and considerations of the Japan Collaborative Actions for Renovation of Air Traffic Systems (CARATS). These capabilities are intended to satisfy the industry's long-term CNS/ATM operational objectives.
