Abstract
This paper describes Monte Carlo simulation results for validating airport surveillance requirements. A fast-time ATC simulator was used to assess the effect on airport efficiency and aircraft safety as surveillance parameters were varied. The results were used to identify the minimum surveillance performance needed to meet operational efficiency and safety requirements.
