TL;DR: The worldwide Air Traffic Control (ATC) structure is under increased strain because old equipment, in many countries, is inefficient and lacks the capacity to handle the anticipated demand over the next 20 years.
Abstract: The worldwide Air Traffic Control (ATC) structure is under increased strain because old equipment, in many countries, is inefficient and lacks the capacity to handle the anticipated demand over the next 20 years. The current growth reflects the international need to increase airspace capacity along with airspace user requests to reduce flight time and save money. Our own National Airspace System is not excluded from this challenge. In response to the growing demands, International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has specified that Required Navigation Performance (RNP) is an essential element of communications navigation surveillance/air traffic management (CNS/ATM) and is encouraging early implementation in the enroute environment. Currently, many States are preparing for the introduction of RNP on air traffic services (ATS) routes in preparation for the implementation of the global CNS/ATM system.
