  1. 29 January 2008 MPAR CONOPS An Update

  2. ACTION ITEM 2007-2.3 Using NGATS CONOPS as a model, develop an MPAR CONOPS rough draft. OPR: OFCM w/CONOPS Development Team Suspense: 31 July 2007 Re-suspense: 30 Nov 07 STATUS: Ongoing. CONOPs Team meets weekly, but is hampered by other high-priority tasks and inability to devote full-time expertise to the task. MPAR CONOPS - Purpose

  3. CONOPS Influence What Drives Cost? Concept of Operations (CONOPS) Drives Operational Requirements (User Needs) Drives Performance Requirements (Characteristics) Scale Drives Radar System Architecture & Design MPAR Cost Drives

  6. CONOPS will be a high-level overview • -- Avoids system specifics; these will come with detailed concept • development and after engineering trades have been explored • -- Outlines enduring functions and basic operator-system relationships • inherent in an adaptively scanning phased array radar • - Living document • Scenario based • -- Depicts notional MPAR’s capability to respond to rapidly evolving • stressfull tactical situations • -- Scenarios developed so far include a severe convective outbreak and • a highjacked noncooperative aircraft flying in the NAS • -- Each scenario illustrates MPAR’s seamless transition from broad-area • surveillance mode to concurrent tracking mode MPAR CONOPS - Methodology

  7. MPAR Functional Architecture NextGen Remote Control Functions MPAR Local Automatic Control Functions • Radar Scheduler • Target Surveillance • Cooperative Target Track • Non-cooperative Target • Track • Target Identification • Weather Surveillance • Storm Tracking Target Track Tasking Request M P A R Radar control Weather Track Tasking Request • System Track Files • Flight Plans • ADS-B • Other Sensors Track Track File Air Target Track File Maintenance Air Tracking Picture Air Target Returns Return Processing External Tasking Requests Unified NAS Picture Weather Returns • System • Weather Files • Other Sensors Weather Picture Weather Track File Maintenance Weather Return Processor

  8. Engagement Chain MPAR • Surveillance/Detection • Detection Confirmation • Track Initiation • Track Maintenance • Target Identification / Characterization • Cooperative ID (ADS-B/IFF) • Non-Cooperative ID Track-while-Scan (TWS) • Surveillance/Detection • Multiple Scan Correlation • Track Maintenance • Target Identification / Characterization • Cooperative ID (ADS-B/IFF) TWS develops target tracks based on correlation of target detections during multiple scans of the radar Phased Array MPAR develops a dedicated Track for each target once the initial detection is made during radar surveillance

  9. Track-while-Scan Radar Processing Target Tracks Based on Track-while-scan Processing

  10. Engagement Chain Surveillance/ Detection Detection Confirmation Track Initiation Cooperative ID (ADS-B / IFF) Track Maintenance Target Identification Non-Cooperative ID

  11. Weather Data Requirements – Tornadic Scenarios
