Abstract:

The mission objective of the Automatic Traffic Advisory and Resolution Service (ATARS) is to increase civil aviation safety by reducing the potential for mid-air collisions and near-miss encounters that can result from:

a. Aircraft deviations from assigned altitudes and/or routes due to pilot error or equipment malfunction.

b. Air traffic control (ATC) system errors.

c. ATC system hardware or software failures.

d. The inability of uncontrolled aircraft using see-and-avoid techniques to maintain safe separation from other aircraft.
