This report is devoted to the present and near future states of the tower cab environment, addresses those MSDP systems which may have an impact on the current tower cab environment, systems and/or operations. The systems included are: Discrete Address Beacon System (DABS), Airport Surface Detection Equipment III (ASDE III), Tower Airport Ground Surveillance (TAGS), Terminal Information Processing System (TIPS), ARTS II and ARTS III enhancements, Flight Service Station Automation (FSSA), Vortex Advisory System (VAS), Wake Vortex Avoidance System (WVAS), Wind Shear Detection system (WSD) and Microwave Landing System (MLS). Each system is described in terms of its functional objectives, planned equipment, interfaces with other systems and with controllers, failure modes, and current development/deployment status. This report is a continuation of report No. FAA-EM-77-10/(DOT-TSC-FAA-77-19) entitled: 'Characterization of Current Tower Cab Environments', dated November 1977 (240 pages). (Author)
