FAA Air Traffic Operational Needs
Post September 11, 2001
Surveillance
- Continuous primary radar track while cooperative
surveillance is lost
- All available surveillance for a given airspace volume
made available to controller responsible for airspace

Implications of FAA Operational Needs
Immediately Post 9/11
Aircraft tracking
- Track continuity in case of loss of cooperative surveillance
Conformance monitoring
- Requires significant reduction in false alarms
