SESAR Exploratory Research in ATM

SESAR exploratory research

drives the development and

evaluation of innovative or

unconventional ideas,

concepts, methods and

technologies; that can define

and deliver the performance

required for the next generation

of European ATM system, and

thus contribute to its successful

evolution

Reviewed, updated and approved by the SESAR

SESAR 1 Long-term Research

• Exploratory Research (ER) explores

novel, unconventional areas,

involving new technologies,

concepts and ideas

• A total of 40 projects of which 26

are ongoing and 14 are closed

• The three Research Networks

coordinate research, 20 PhD

• HALA! – Towards Higher Levels of

Automation in ATM

• Complex World –Mastering Complex

Systems Safely

• ALIAS – Addressing the Liability

Impact of Automated Systems46

SESAR 1 Lessons Learnt

• The transfer of long-term research

results is difficult into the Industrial

Research activities of the main SESAR

program

• SESAR 2020 will aim at better bridging

the results from Exploratory Research

through Industrial Research, Large

Scale Demos towards

implementation/industrialisation

readiness

• Strengthen the link of the ATM research

community and SESAR stakeholders

through ATM Applications Oriented

topics in SESAR 2020

47

51

SESAR2020 ER - Transversal Activities

• Transversal exploratory activities are

linked to developing a knowledge

transfer network for communication of

research results and research network

activities under future ATM skilled force

• Knowledge Transfer Network -

assessment, coordination and

communication transfer of ER results (

e.g. WP-E)

• Future ATM Skilled work-force -

PhD, training network activities, Young

Scientist Award

52

SESAR Exploratory Research Objectives

• To contribute to the European ATM

Master Plan towards long term

objectives beyond 2035 (i.e. 2050

timescale)

• To contribute to the identification of

innovative solutions not yet

identified but which would

accelerate the realisation of the

SES targets

• The delivery sustainable healthy

research activities across a range of

research networks in Europe

53

SESAR 2020 Exploratory Research Calls

• H2020 open calls, so not

limited to SJU Members

• SESAR Exploratory Research

will be the driver behind

innovative and disruptive

research ideas in ATM
