Frequentis has been asked to provide input to 13 additional SESAR projects, focusing on issues such as safety, security and the Network Information Management System (NIMS).
Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR) is the technological dimension of the Single European Sky, an initiative launched by the European Commission in 2004 to reform the architecture of European air traffic management (ATM).
It proposes a legislative approach to meet future capacity and safety needs at a European rather than a local level.
Frequentis will participate in SESAR Work Package 13 (Network Information Management System) and and Work Package 16 (R&D Transversal Areas).
The outcome of all new projects will follow the established SESAR Overall Architecture approach, which seeks to create a stable set of open service interfaces that allow all services to collaborate on a loosely coupled basis.
This approach means the services themselves can change in different implementations without requiring changes to the overall system.
