Accident risk assessment for airborne separation assurance

The paper shows the results of a collision risk assessment based evaluation of safe spacing and safe separation criteria for a particular airborne separation assurance based operational concept. Assessed are both the model based risk and the bias and uncertainty that is caused by differences between the model and reality. It is also shown how accident risk results provide effective feedback to the concept design process.
