TRAFFIC ALERT AND COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM SIGNAL ENVIRONMENTAL MODEL TCAS SEM PROGRAMMER'S REFERENCE MANUAL

Abstract : A Traffic Alert and Collision System Signal Environment Model (TCAS SEM) was developed to predict the time-averaged TCAS I and minimum signal rates in a user-selected air traffic deployment. This document describes the TCAS SEM. Included are descriptions of the modeled systems, the data-storage and retrieval subsystems for engineering data, and the software structures of all component subsystems.
