Attachment J001 – Preliminary Program Requirements for Runway Incursion Prevention through Situational Awareness (RIPSA)

1 Concept of Operations

The RIPSA system or systems proposed must be able to provide targeted surveillance coverage for/between 2 to 6 Runway/Taxiway intersections (“protected intersections”) at an airfield, with a variety of intersecting geometries, including, but not limited to those depicted below. The system must also detect the occupancy status of the runway(s) under surveillance, and provide position and vector information for all aircraft and vehicles on the runway. The system(s) should then process the surveillance to detect any possible conflict between traffic holding at the protected intersection with traffic on the runway, and command a “direct-to-pilot” annunciator/ field lighting system installed at the protected intersections to turn on and off in accordance with the motion of the detected traffic.

Illumination of the annunciator must indicate to traffic holding at the protected intersection that the runway is unsafe for entry or crossing by providing “just-in-time” situational awareness indicating the occupancy status of the runway. Examples of these types of intersections are depicted below.

The solutions provided in response to these requirements should include all the following components: surveillance system with associated processing logic, and the field lighting system to provide a direct-to-pilot annunciator. The Government intends to furnish a Light Activation (LA) processor that receives surveillance from the surveillance system and provides light commands to the field lighting system.
