AIR TRAFFIC SERVICE
Haneda Airport
Revolution of air traffic services
Traffic congestion in the sky has been becoming more serious with along with the increase in air transport demand
These are the efforts for revolutionizing the air traffic service to ensure the safety of airways and increase their capacity as well as to construct airports.
1. Restructuring of airspace and airways
To cope with increase in air traffic volume resulting from re-expansion of Haneda Airport, national re-formation of the airspace and airways are indispensable in the following ways:
a) Implementation of Area Navigation (RNAV*) for each flight phase,
b) restructuring airspace in Metropolitan area.
In addition, the Air Traffic Management Center (ATM) assess the conditions of the use of training airspace for the US forces and the Self-Defense Forces in real time, and executing flexible use of airspace to ensure smooth flow of traffic.

a) Restructuring of airways by adopting internationally standardized RNAV (In the beginning of 2007)
​
What is RNAV ?
RNAV is a method in which aircraft equipped with FMC devices receive DME radio waves, GPS signals and other sensors to measure their own position, and fly on RNAV routes fixed beforehand through calculation processing.
RNAV routes will be located on three flight phases : the oceanic/en-route phase, the terminal phase, and the approach phase, according to type of aircraft operations.
​
Effects of the introduction of RNAV:
RNAV increases options (flexibility) for routes compared to conventional traffic control. Therefore the following effects can be expected :
1) shortening of routes
2) reduction of noise
3) increase in the number of routes
4) less workload for controllers and pilots due to the reduction in route instructions during air traffic control
5) improvements in safety and efficiency.
​
Introduction and development of RNAV
As of March 2007, Japan has a total of
60 RNAV routes in its airspace
8 RNAV routes (5 airports) in air terminals
4 RNAV routes (4 airports) in approach phases.
These routes will be expanded, and near the end of fiscal 2010, VOR routes and RNAV routes will be operationally separated at 29,000ft, and RNAV routes will be developed in the Japanese airspace at 29,000ft and over under the "Sky Highway Plan".
​
b) Restructuring Airspace in Metropolitan Area
In order to handle increased traffic in metropolitan airspace and mitigate congestions, terminal area control at Tokyo airport and Narita airport will be integrated at Tokyo airport.

2. Implementation of new air navigation systems
The Multifunctional Transport Satellites (MTSAT), which covers the Asia Pacific region, have been launched, and the operations start in addition to the provision of new communication service (AMSS) with wide area augmentation system for GPS (MSAS). Thus strengthened communications/navigation/surveillance functions will ensure safety, and reduce the separation minimum in oceanic airspace to increase the capacity.
Flights along optimum routes and at an optimum altitude will be achieved mainly for Pacific airways (international).
In addition to the operation of the air transport satellite system, the existing air navigation systems will become more advanced, and various new generation air traffic control systems will be implemented, including a new generation air traffic console system with control functions such as an arrival order in terminals, and an SSR Mode-S system with data link communication functions.

Air Traffic Management System
​
Haneda makes use of the Multi-functional Transport Satellite (MTSAT) and other various components as their Air Traffic Management System.
​
MTSAT allows for communication via High Frequency (HF), Very High Frequency (VHF), Satellite Voice (SAT-Voice) and Controller-Pilot Data Link Communication (CPDLC).
​
Navigation
GPS Augmentation Information MTSAT Satellite Augmentation System (MSAS) provides GPS augmentation information that helps to improves the accuracy, reliability and safety of GPS, for aircraft using GPS navigation.
​
Navigation Aids and Instrument Landing System (ILS) present at runways.
Haneda Airport uses these Aids:
o ILS – Instrument Landing System
o VOR – Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Radio Range
o LDA - Localizer Type Directional Aid
o LOC - Localizer
o PAPI – Precision Approach Path Indicator
These Aids are available at most of the 4 runways at Haneda.
Surveillance Radars Haneda Airport is equipped with Primary Surveillance Radar (PSR) and Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR). The PSR has a coverage of 80nm. The SSR is implemented using Monopulse SSR and coverage of 100nm. Their SSR are mode A, C and S implemented. Mode A allows for identifying code to be transmitted. Mode C transmits the flight level or aircraft altitude. Mode S is altitude capable and allows for exchange of data.
​
Introduction of MSAS
The introduction of the MSAS enhances the safety aspect of aviation and helps protect the environment at the same time. The MSAS allows a more direct flight path resulting in lesser workload for both the pilot and the controllers allowing them to pay attention more to the traffic situation.
