Navigation unction. The detailed capability o the navigation system (such as the execution o leg transitions, parallel offset capabilities, holding patterns, navigation databases) required  to meet the airspace concept. Navigational unctional requirements are one o the drivers or  the selection o a particular navigation specification. Navigation specification.  A set o aircraf and aircrew requirements needed to support Perormance-based Navigation operations within a defined airspace. There are two kinds o navigation specification: • RNAV specification.  A navigation specification based on area navigation that does not include the requirement or on-board perormance monitoring and alerting, designated by  the prefix RNAV, e.g. RNAV 5, RNAV 1. • RNP specification. A navigation specification based on area navigation that includes the requirement or on-board perormance monitoring and alerting, designated by the prefix RNP, e.g. RNP 4, RNP APCH. Perormance-based navigation.  Area navigation based on perormance requirements or aircraf operating along an ATS route, on an instrument approach procedure or in a designated airspace. Perormance requirements are expressed in navigation specifications in terms o accuracy, integrity, continuity and unctionality needed or the proposed operation in the context o a particular airspace concept.

Performance-based Navigation (PBN) PBN Introduction The continuing growth o aviation increases demands on airspace capacity thereore emphasizing the need or optimum utilization o available airspace. Improved operational efficiency derived rom the application o area navigation techniques has resulted in the development o navigation applications in various regions worldwide and or all phases o flight. These applications could potentially be expanded to provide guidance or ground movement operations. Requirements or navigation applications on specific routes or within a specific airspace must be defined in a clear and concise manner. This is to ensure that the flight crew and the air  traffic controllers (ATCOs) are aware o the on-board RNAV or RNP system capabilities in order  to determine whether the perormance o the RNAV or RNP system is appropriate or the specific airspace requirements. RNAV and RNP systems evolved in a manner similar to conventional ground-based routes and procedures. A specific RNAV or RNP system was identified and its perormance was evaluated  through a combination o analysis and flight testing. For domestic operations, the initial systems used VOR and DME or estimating their position; or oceanic operations, INS were employed. These “new” systems were developed, evaluated and certified. Airspace and obstacle clearance criteria were developed based on the perormance o available equipment; and specifications or requirements were based on available capabilities. In some cases, it was necessary to identiy the individual models o equipment that could be operated within the airspace concerned. Such prescriptive requirements resulted in delays to  the introduction o new RNAV and RNP system capabilities and higher costs or maintaining appropriate certification. To avoid such prescriptive specifications o requirements, this manual introduces an alternative method or defining equipage requirements by speciying the perormance requirements. This is termed Perormance-based Navigation (PBN).

Performance-based Navigation (PBN) The PBN concept specifies that aircraf RNAV and RNP system perormance requirements be defined in terms o the accuracy, integrity, continuity and unctionality, which are needed or  the proposed operations in the context o a particular airspace concept.

The PBN concept represents a shif rom sensor-based to PBN. Perormance requirements are identified in navigation specifications, which also identiy the choice o navigation sensors and equipment that may be used to meet the perormance requirements. These navigation specifications are defined at a sufficient level o detail to acilitate global harmonization by providing specific implementation guidance or States and operators. Under PBN, generic navigation requirements are defined based on operational requirements. Operators then evaluate options in respect o available technology and navigation services, which could allow the requirements to be met. An operator thereby has the opportunity  to select a more cost-effective option, rather than a solution being imposed as part o the operational requirements. Technology can evolve over time without requiring the operation itsel to be reviewed, as long as the expected perormance is provided by the RNAV or RNP system. As part o the uture work o ICAO, it is anticipated that other means or meeting the requirements o the navigation specifications will be evaluated and may be included in the applicable navigation specifications, as appropriate.

Performance-based Navigation (PBN) Principles The PBN concept specifies that aircraf RNAV and RNP system perormance requirements be defined in terms o: Accuracy Integrity Availability Continuity Perormance requirements are identified in navigation specifications, which also identiy  the choice o navigation sensors and equipment that may be used to meet the perormance requirements. Accuracy The measure o the precision o the navigation solution. ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPS) speciy the accuracy requirements or various phases o flight. Current  technology can use the GNSS constellations to meet IFR accuracy requirements or oceanic and domestic en-route use as well as terminal area and non-precision approaches. Precision approaches will require some orm o GNSS augmentation to overcome the known limitations o the constellation systems. The most common causes o reduced accuracy are: Integrity A measure o the trust that can be placed in the correctness o the inormation supplied. The parameters defining the integrity are specific to navigation specifications: Alert Limit (AL): the error tolerance not to be exceeded without issuing an alert

• Means the region (horizontal and vertical) which is required to contain the indicated position with the required probability or a particular navigation mode

• Required ALs depend on the type o operation Time to Alert: the maximum allowable time elapsed rom the onset o the navigation system being out o tolerance until the equipment enunciates the alert (LNAV = 10 seconds, LPV APP down to 200f = 6 seconds). Integrity Risk: probability that, at any moment, the position error exceeds the Alert Limit. Protection Level (PL): statistical bound error computed so as to guarantee that the probability o the absolute position error exceeding said number is smaller than or equal to the target integrity risk • Means the region (horizontal and vertical) assured to contain the indicated position. It defines the region where the missed alert requirement can be met • PLs are computed by the on board receiver

I, during an operation the PLs exceed the required ALs, the operation cannot continue. • VPL only used or operations with vertical guidance (e.g. LPV) xAL: fixed value during operation xPL: value calculated by on-board receiver (varies depending on aircraf and satellite geometry and SBAS corrections) The integrity o the system (or service) establishes to which degree the navigation source can be trusted during the flight. Availability Percentage o time that the services o the system are usable by the navigator. (Alt: proportion o time during which reliable navigation inormation is presented to the crew, autopilot, or other system managing the flight o the aircraf) The availability o a system (or service) establishes the percentage o time during when the operation (or example a final approach) can be started. Continuity The capability o the system to perorm its unction without unscheduled interruptions during  the intended operation. (Alt rom ICAO SARPS: It relates to the capability o the navigation system to provide a navigation output with the specified accuracy and integrity during the approach, assuming that it was available at the start o the operation) The continuity o the system guarantees that once an operation (or example a final approach) is initiated, it will not be interrupted. The PBN concept represents a shif rom sensor-based to PBN.        9        1

Advantages o PBN over sensor-specific methods o developing airspace: • reduces the need to maintain sensor-specific routes and procedures, and their associated costs; • avoids the need or developing sensor-specific operations with each new evolution o navigation systems, which would be cost-prohibitive;

11

19

Performance-based Navigation (PBN) • allows or more efficient use o airspace (route placement, uel efficiency and noise abatement); • clarifies how RNAV and RNP systems are used; and • acilitates the operational approval process or operators by providing a limited set o navigation specifications intended or global use. Computed vs raw data

Conventional navigation The navigation perormance data used to determine the separation minima or route spacing depend on the accuracy o the raw data rom specific NAVAIDs such as VOR, DME or NDB

PBN Requires an RNAV or RNP system that integrates raw navigation data to provide a positioning and navigation solution. In determining separation minima and route spacing in a PBN context,  this integrated navigation perormance “output” (computed data) is used. Area navigation system will confirm the validity o the individual sensor data and, in most systems, will also confirm the consistency o the computed data beore they are used.

Components PBN is composed o 3 constituents Navigation Specification:  set o aircraf and aircrew requirements needed to support a navigation application within a defined airspace concept. Navigation Inrastructure: ground based NAVAIDS or space based NAVAIDS. 1   9 

Navigation Application:  application o a navigation specification and the supporting NAVAID inrastructure, to routes, procedures, and/or defined airspace volume, in accordance with  the intended airspace concept.

Navigation systems are specified in terms o Navigation System Error (NSE), and thereore hypotheses on the Flight Technical Error (FTE) and Path Definition Error (PDE) contributions to  the Total System Error (TSE) are made to qualiy a system or a given navigation specification. Path Definition Error (PDE): occurs when the path defined in the RNAV system (database) does not correspond to the desired path, i.e. the path expected to be flown over the ground. PDE is considered negligible i quality assurance process is applied at the navigation database level and i correct operating procedures are applied. 1   9 

Flight Technical Error (FTE): relates to the air crew or autopilot’s ability to ollow the defined  path or track.

Navigation System Error (NSE): reers to the difference between the aircraf’s estimated  position and actual position. Because specific perormance requirements are defined or each navigation specification, an aircraf approved or a particular navigation specification is not automatically approved or any other navigation specification. Similarly, an aircraf approved or an RNP or RNAV specification having stringent accuracy requirements (e.g. RNP 0.3 specification) is not automatically approved or a navigation specification having a less stringent accuracy requirement (e.g. RNP 4).

Airspace Planning PBN is one o several enablers o an airspace concept. Communications, ATS surveillance and Air Traffic Management are also essential elements o an airspace concept. The determination o separation minima and route spacing* or use by aircraf is a major element o airspace planning Manual on Airspace Planning Methodology or the Determination o separation Minima (Doc 9689) Manual on the Use o Perormance-Based Navigation (PBN) in Airspace Design (Doc 9992)

Specific RNAV and RNP System Functions The standard that fixes database ormats and contents is the ARINC 424 ‘Navigation System Data Base Standard.’ Area Navigation (RNAV) involves flying between waypoints not coinciding with ground fixes.

Waypoints coordinates are hence loaded in the on-board aircraf’s database. Types: Fly-by: the navigation system anticipates the turn onto the next leg. Fly-over: the aircraf overflies the waypoint beore starting the turn onto the next route leg. ARINC 424 also defines the Path Terminator: permits defining how to navigate to, rom and between waypoints. The Path Terminator is a two-letter code, which defines a specific type o flight path along a segment o a procedure and a specific type o termination o that flight path

Path terminators are assigned to all RNAV SID, STAR and approach procedure segments in an airborne navigation database This allows translating into computer language (FMS) the procedures designed or clock & compass manual flight Charted procedures are translated into a sequence o ARINC 424 legs in the database There are 23 different path terminators defined in ARINC 424.

Performance-based Navigation (PBN) Fixed radius transition (FRT)  To be used* with en-route procedures It alls upon the RNP system to create it between two route segments These turns have two possible radii, 22.5 NM or high altitude routes (above FL 195) and 15 NM or low altitude routes. Using  such path elements in an RNAV ATS route enables improvement in airspace usage through closely spaced parallel routes * The “Concept o Use” o FRT is currently  being evaluated by ICAO, who is careully  Figure 19.14 addressing promulgation, airspace design and avionics capabilities aspects, among others.

Many aircraf have the capability to execute a holding pattern manoeuvre using their RNAV system, which can provide flexibility to ATC in designing RNAV operations. The RNAV system acilitates the holding pattern specification by allowing the definition o  the inbound course to the holding waypoint, turn direction and leg time or distance on the straight segments, as well as the ability to plan the exit rom the hold.

Data Processes All RNAV and RNP applications use aeronautical data to define, inter alia, ground-based NAVAIDs, runways, gates, waypoints and the route/procedure to be flown. The saety o the application is contingent upon the accuracy, resolution and integrity o the data. Thereore:        9        1

The accuracy o the data depends upon the processes applied during the data origination.

The integrity o the data depends upon the entire aeronautical data chain rom the point o origin to the point o use.

PBN Operations What pilots need to know about PBN operations is whether the aircraf and flight crew are qualified to operate in the airspace, on a procedure or along an ATS route. The flight operations element considers: The operator’s inrastructure or conducting PBN operations and flight crew operating procedures, training and competency demonstrations. The operator’s MEL, OMs, checklists, navigation database validation procedures, etc. There are 3 main independent lateral errors in the context o on-board perormance monitoring and alerting. Together they account or the Total System Error (TSE). Path Definition Error (PDE): occurs when the path defined in the RNAV system (database) does not correspond to the desired path, i.e. the path expected to be flown over the ground . 25

19

Performance-based Navigation (PBN) Flight Technical Error (FTE): relates to the air crew or autopilot’s ability to ollow the defined  path or track Navigation System Error (NSE):  reers to the difference between the aircraf’s estimated  position and actual position

Figure 19.17

On-board Performance Monitoring And Alerting This unction allows the air crew to detect whether or not the RNP system satisfies the navigation perormance required in the navigation specification. Relates to both lateral and longitudinal navigation perormance On-board means that the perormance monitoring and alerting is effected on board the aircraf and not elsewhere.

Monitoring reers to the monitoring o the aircraf’s perormance with regard to its ability to determine positioning error and/or to ollow the desired path.

Alerting relates to monitoring: i the aircraf’s navigation system does not perorm well enough,  this will be alerted to the air crew. RAIM (Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring) - a orm o ABAS. The GPS ground stations monitor GPS satellites and detect aults. It can take too much time to detect a ault and update the navigation messages sent to the users to declare a particular satellite Signal in Space (SIS) erroneous. To solve this, GPS receivers have an autonomous way o assuring the integrity o GPS pseudo-ranges: the RAIM algorithm. GPS receivers require a minimum set o 4 satellites to compute a 3D position. With additional satellites, the “RAIM algorithm” comes into play. A 5th satellite provides Fault Detection (FD) capability: the receiver recognises a aulty satellite, but is not able to identiy which one in particular. A 6th satellite provides Fault Detection and Exclusion (FDE) capability: the receiver is able to isolate the aulty satellite. RAIM prediction is required beore conducting a flight which will use a GPS approach. This prediction can be used using the GPS receiver or with an

26

Performance -based Navigation (PBN)

19

internet-based RAIM prediction tool. During flight, the receiver’s RAIM (FD or FDE) algorithm monitors the position. Approach will be discontinued i ault detection detects a position ailure when integrity is provided by FDE. LPV is based on SBAS integrity; i RAIM is unavailable the approach can be perormed anyway.

Figure 19.18

On-board perormance monitoring shall not be regarded as error monitoring. Alerts are issued when the system cannot guarantee with sufficient integrity that the position meets the accuracy requirement.        9        1

When an alert is issued, the probable reason is the loss o capability to validate the position data (insufficient satellites being a potential reason).

Performance-based Navigation (PBN) LPV to LNAV reversion: 1.

For LPV approaches, some systems allow LPV to LNAV reversion i the vertical signal is lost or degraded.

2.

I LPV to LNAV reversion takes place beore the FAF/FAP, the crew can envisage continuing with the approach to the LNAV minima.

3.

I reversion occurs afer the FAF/FAP, go-around is required, unless the pilot has in sight  the visual reerences required to continue the approach.

In case o a complete RNAV guidance loss during the approach, the crew must ollow the operator defined contingency procedure/s. In the event o communications ailure: a) Flight crew should continue with the 2D/3D RNAV(GNSS) procedure in accordance with published lost communication procedures; or b)

Follow procedures stated in the chart;

The flight crew should react to TAWS warnings in accordance with approved procedures. The flight crew should notiy ATC o any problem with the navigation system that results in the loss o the approach capability.

Database Management The navigation database must contain all the necessary data/inormation to fly the published approach procedure. Thereore, the on-board navigation data must be valid or the current Aeronautical Inormation Regulation and Control (AIRAC) cycle and must include the appropriate flight procedures. The operator should implement procedures that ensure timely distribution and insertion o current and unaltered electronic navigation data to all aircraf  that require it.
