Abstract:

An automated Frequency Assignment System FAS was developed as a means of providing frequency assignment plans for FAA Air Traffic Control ATC VHF communications facilities. The FAS consists of a series of computer models described in FAA-RD-76-14. The system can be used for assignment gaming including partial and complete assignments, detecting violators, statistical analyses, and plots of service volume. This report describes improvements made to the FAS during 1977 and supplements FAA-RD-76-14. Author
