The present document is applicable to the Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control System (A-SMGCS) Guidance Service. This service is based on the A-SMGCS surveillance service (as specified in ETSI EN 303 213-1) and generates individual guidance information for mobiles based on the surveillance and routing information and known constraints (e.g. standard taxi routes, taxiway closures). In most cases these guidance information will be provided to external partner systems of the A-SMGCS, such as the airfield ground lighting or electronic flight bag display systems in the cockpit of the mobiles. The guidance information can be modified by the controller at any time.
The present document provides a European Standard for Air Navigation Service Providers, who have to demonstrate and declare compliance of their systems and procedures to the Regulation (EU) 2018/1139, and takes into account Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/116.
A mapping of requirements for the A-SMGCS guidance service to the relevant Essential Requirements of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 is provided in Annex A.
Any software elements related to the software assurance level of an A-SMGCS are outside of the scope of the present document. As such the essential requirements of the Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 are not considered for software elements within the present document.
The present document does not give presumption of conformity related to the maintenance requirements, environmental constraints, procedure level, effect of harmful interference and civil/military coordination.
NOTE: For these ERs, refer to the Air Navigation Service Provider procedures.
Requirements in the present document which refer to "should" statements or recommendations in the normatively referenced material (clause 2.1) are to be interpreted as fully normative ("shall") for the purpose of compliance with the present document.
Currently there are no relevant Implementing Rules for A-SMGCS. The present document does not give presumption of conformity to any current interoperability Implementing Rules.
