QUANTITATIVE SAFETY ASSESSMENT OF AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEMS THROUGH SYSTEM CONTROL CAPACITY

Quantitative Safety Assessments (QSA) are essential to safety benefit verification and regulations of developmental changes in safety critical systems like the Air Traffic Control (ATC) systems. Effectiveness of the assessments is particularly desirable today in the safe implementations of revolutionary ATC overhauls like NextGen and SESAR. QSA of ATC systems are however challenged by system complexity and lack of accident data.
