The 1030 MHz and 1090 MHz frequency pair is a critical resource, one that is vital to the European ATM network and, especially, to surveillance and collision avoidance systems.
The use of these frequencies is core for SSR Mode A/C radars, Mode S radars, Wide Area and Local Multilateration, ADS-B, ACAS and military systems. Any problem with these RF frequencies has an immediate and direct impact on the network’s capacity – and has the potential to threaten safe and efficient operations.
Join EUROCONTROL experts Eric Potier, Petr Jonas and Laura Cartianu to learn more about the need for a reliable and efficient surveillance infrastructure in Europe and EUROCONTROL’s monitoring capabilities.

CORUS-XUAM aims to show how U-space, the European UTM system, can be extended to support urban air mobility (UAM) flight operations. Operational procedures and requirements are being developed, with safety, efficiency and social acceptability taken into account.
Presentation of CADENZA (Advanced capacity and demand management for European Network performance) & ISOBAR (Optimisation and AI solutions to meteo-based DCB imbalances for Network operations planning), by Franck Ballerini
The objective of CADENZA is to develop and validate a trajectory broker concept with different options for advanced capacity-demand balancing i.e. acting simultaneously on three levers: capacity provision, temporal and spatial distribution of demand (departure slots and flight paths, respectively). The implementation of this concept would lead to a significant reduction of ATFM delays, increased cost-efficiency and reduced emissions.
ISOBAR aims to develop and validate AI models to integrate convective weather forecasts, predict demand/capacity imbalances and automate the selection of mitigation measures at local and network level. This is to better anticipate from D-1 leading to a more stable network operations plan and a significant reduction of ATFM delays.
EUROCONTROL Air Transport Innovation Network (EATIN) & an overview of user-driven innovation portfolio by Peter Choroba
EUROCONTROL set up EATIN to work closer with the end-users such as air navigation service providers, airports and airspace users to develop agile digital solutions and services in response to their operational needs and innovation projects supported by agile innovation processes.
Since September 2020, our Innovation Hub has launched 18 projects in 4 ideation cycles.
At the show, our expert Peter Choroba will showcase the following projects/prototypes: FADE (Forecast of ATFM delay) – live demo; collaborative curfew management; knock-on delay visualisation; CO2 mini – runway allocation; optimisation of airport resources with PAX prediction and Regulation scheme optimiser.

Aviation sustainability supported by flexible use of airspace by Michael Steinfurth
At least 6% of all weekend city pairs within ECAC could benefit from shorter flight routes by using non-active ARES, generating savings of at least 18,000 tonnes of fuel, 56,000 tonnes of CO2 and 18.5 million euros a year. How the use of available ARES might be impacted by airport slot times, route charges, flight-planning practices etc. has still to be investigated.

Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) have been actively used in the defence sector over the last 30 years mainly using US and Israeli platforms. The emergence of new types of platforms, from micro UAS to High Altitude Pseudo Satellites (HAPS), as well as the current development of Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) by four European nations, offer an opportunity to foster sustainable and smart mobility, improve the competitiveness of European industry and strengthen Europe's strategic autonomy in this key technical domain. This also represents an excellent opportunity for civil-military cooperation since many of the technological building blocks building up these systems, such as Detect and Avoid, autonomy, datalinks, electrooptical sensors and other payloads are paradigmatic cases of dual-use enabling technologies, which ideally should also have European origin.
This panel will gather key actors from industry and European organisations to discuss the role of military UAS as a trigger for the development, standardisation and regulation of key dual-use enabling technologies in Europe.

The Russian attack on Ukraine shows that armed conflicts are still possible threats to our freedom and democratic values, requiring joint military and civil efforts to defend in what we believe. This new political situation in Europe will require adaptations in areas related to civil-military cooperation. Therefore, balanced considerations between commercial aviation and security and defence must shift more weight towards security and defence needs to ensure that national air forces can deploy assets throughout Europe in all-weather conditions at short notice, which is paramount to establish and maintain a military readiness posture for deterrence and defence of Europe. The panel members will be asked to share their perspectives on the potential impacts of a changing European security environment on civil-military ATM/ANS cooperation.

Mitigating the climate impact of non-CO₂ emissions: MUAC/DLR contrail prevention trial: first results and way ahead
This presentation will focus on the results of the first worldwide live operational trial on contrail prevention ...
This presentation will focus on the results of the first worldwide live operational trial on contrail prevention aimed at mitigating non-CO2 emissions which was carried out in 2021 by EUROCONTROL’s Maastricht Upper Area Control Centre (MUAC), in partnership with the German Aerospace Centre (DLR). With two-thirds of the impact of aviation on climate change believed to come from aircraft non-CO2 emissions, contrail prevention has a key role to play in curbing global warming. In total, 209 aircraft trajectories were included in the trial over 10 months. The MUAC/DLR trial on contrail prevention is one contributor and component in a much wider picture of mitigating climate change. It is an important milestone from theory to practice and a stepping stone from science to engineering. Scientists and ATM managers will share the results in a bid to spark decisions for the future of aviation. The way-ahead in contrail prevention will be explained.
