Foreword
Airservices Australia has established a Noise and Flight Path Monitoring System (NFPMS) at Australia's major airports. Operated from a single control centre, the system monitors aircraft operations and their environmental effects at airports across the Australian continent.
This report provides a brief description of the system and the data it collects and processes. It also
contains a summary of data collected in Perth over the quarter January to March 2012 by the NFPMS.
In rare circumstances, data within the NFPMS may be updated that can cause slight changes to historic data that has been previously published.
DISCLAIMER
This report contains a summary of data collected over the specified period and is intended to convey the best
information available from the NFPMS at the time. The system databases are to some extent dependent upon external
sources and errors may occur. All care is taken in preparation of the report but its complete accuracy can not be
guaranteed. Airservices Australia does not accept any legal liability for any losses arising from reliance upon data in
this report which may be found to be inaccurate.

1. INTRODUCTION
Under its environmental responsibilities, Airservices Australia (AA) has established a Noise and Flight Path Monitoring System (NFPMS) at Australia's major airports. An overview of the NFPMS is shown in Appendix A. A map displaying all noise and flight path monitoring locations in Australia is shown in Figure 1.
This report is a summary of data collected by the Perth segment of the system over the first quarter (January to March) 2012.
Figure 1: Noise and flight path monitoring locations in Australia
Data presented in this report reflects the data collected and processed at the time of the preparation of the report. From time to time data requires re-processing. This is particularly so for the noise data from the portable noise monitors as these are often located in marginal areas where the standard noise
Page 9Perth Quarterly Report PH12Q1
detection settings may require modification. When further processing of the data occurs it will be noted in the Quarterly Report and changes from previous reports highlighted.
2. NMT LOCATIONS AND NOISE DATA SUMMARIES
The Perth component of the NFPMS has five permanently installed Noise Monitoring Terminals (NMTs) which are strategically located around Perth Airport as shown in Figure 2 and listed in Table 1.

The A-weighted average sound exposure levels (LAeq) for the current and preceding 4 quarters at each NMT are contained in Table 1, the values for the night period (23:00 to 6:00 each day) are given in brackets. These noise levels encompass the whole environment (including aircraft) as measured at each NMT. Also included in Table 1 are the number of correlated noise events (CNE), and the N70, N80 and N90 values for each NMT during the quarter. N70 is calculated by dividing the total number of CNE equal to or greater than 70 dB(A) detected during the quarter by the number of days in the quarter that the NMT is in operation (Op Days). For N80 and N90, the CNE noise thresholds are 80 dB(A) and 90 dB(A) respectively.
Appendix B includes graphs showing the daily value of N70 at each NMT throughout the quarter, and the distribution of N70 values. In some cases an NMT may suffer a hardware outage, for example during routine maintenance. The caption under each graph details such outages for each NMT during the report cycle.
In the case of studies involving portable noise monitors the data is firstly collected and then processed. By contrast the data from the permanent monitors is processed in real time. For the Chidlow monitors the Q2 2010 data was processed using a threshold of 48dB(A), however the Q3 2010 data was inadvertently deleted by Airservices’ external service provider before it could be processed at the threshold of 48dB(A), therefore further reprocessing of this data was not possible. To improve the data analysis ability the raw data for Q4 2010 and Q1 2011 was downloaded and saved outside the NFPMS to prevent data loss. During April 2011 the data for Q4 2010 and Q1 2011 has been re-processed to refine the detection of noise events down to 48dB(A). This data has been presented in Table 1. Note that the re-processing of Q4 2010 data with the lower threshold of 48 dB(A) has increased the number of correlated noise events when compared to the previously published Q4 2010 report.

3. QUARTERLY TRACK DATA
3.1. Quarterly track density plots.
The quarterly track density plot is a map which displays the pattern of aircraft flight tracks passing over the region around the airport during the quarter. The system analyses the number of flights passing over each grid element of an array defined by the user. Grid elements of 200m x 200m have been adopted as a standard. The track density plot takes into account all aircraft and provides a useful indication of the general patterns of the flight operations.
Figure 3 shows the quarterly track density plot for all aircraft operations for the first quarter of 2012. The colour coding from green to red represents the range 182 to 1820 flight tracks (ie. 2 per day to 20 or more per day) over a grid element. If any grid element is not colour-coded, the number of aircraft flight tracks passing over that element during the quarter was less than 182, ie. less than 2 flights per day on average. The concentration at the bottom of the plot includes aircraft using Jandakot Airport . The grey circles within Figure 3 show the location of each NMT.
For comparison purposes, the quarterly track density plot for jet operations only for the quarter is shown in Figure 4.

Figure 4: Track density plot for jet operations only during the first quarter 2012.
Page 16Perth Quarterly Report PH12Q1
3.2. Jet track plots.
Plots of actual tracks for arrivals and departures of individual aircraft type or group can also be obtained from the system. Figures 5 and 6 show the track plots for jet arrivals and departures over the one-week period 2 to 8 March 2012. These tracks have been coloured according to the aircraft height above ground level. Note that using the upgraded NFPMS, Figures 5 and 6 present track plots in height above ground level. This is slightly different to the previous system where track plots were presented in alitude (height above sea level).
• Red when less than 1000ft• Orange between 1000ft and 3000ft• Yellow between 3000ft and 5000ft• Green above 5000ft.
These heights have been chosen in accordance with the criteria in the document “Environment
Principles and Procedures for Minimising the Impact of Aircraft Noise”. This document can be
found on the Airservices Australia's web site:
www.airservicesaustralia.com/projectsservices/reports/
3.3 Non-jet and helicopter track plots.
Non-jet operations are principally the operations of propeller and turbo-prop aircraft. The track plots for the period 2 to 8 March 2012 for arriving and departing non-jet aircraft and helicopters are shown in Figures 7 and 8 respectively. The same colour coding used for jet track plots is used in these figures. For both arrivals and departures by non-jets, the tracks disperse from the runway centrelines closer to the airport, to allow a clear path for jets, which are significantly faster.
4. AIRCRAFT MOVEMENT AND AIRCRAFT NOISE DATA
4.1. Movement statistics.
Movement statistics for Perth Airport expressed in monthly figures are shown in Table 2. Explanations of the terms shown in Table 2 can be found in the Glossary section on Pages 6 and 7. The figures are based on The Australian Advanced Air Traffic System (TAAATS) data.
Table 2 also covers the runway usage for arrivals and departures individually and as a total for each runway. Although their flight tracks may be available on NFPMS, TAAATS does not always provide operational details for movements by helicopters and light propeller-driven aircraft. This is the main reason that the Table includes figures for operations by miscellaneous General Aviation aircraft, or aircraft with indeterminate runway (I).
The total number of monthly arrival (A) and departure (D) movements of all types (jets, non-jets and helicopters) at Perth Airport for January was 12065, for February was 11478 and for March was 12364. The total number of arrival and departure movements for all aircraft types during the quarter was 35907.

Page 21Perth Quarterly Report PH12Q1
Note that a training operation involving multiple circuits is counted by the system as a single movement, which may be arrival or departure. This is the reason that numbers of arrivals may differ from the corresponding numbers of departures. It is also the reason that movement numbers obtained from TAAATS data may differ from other ATC-sourced data.
In addition to the movement numbers of Table 2 the NFPMS detected 203 local area operations which both originated and terminated at the airport. Some of these were General Aviation aircraft operations involved multiple training circuits at the airport.
Movement data for the preceding 4 quarters are given in Table 3.
4.2. Night movement statistics.
Movement statistics for aircraft operating during the night hours (23:00 to 6:00) for Perth Airport are shown in Table 4. The total number of arrival and departure movements during the night period in the first quarter of 2012 was 3470.
Movement data for the night period for the preceding 4 quarters are given in Table 5.
4.3. Daily runway usage per calendar month for arrivals and departures during the quarter.
The daily runway usage per calendar month for arrivals and departures of all aircraft types including jets , non-jets, helicopters and emergency aircraft during the quarter is shown in Appendix C in which the movement figures of aircraft arrivals and departures are counted separately and wholly per runway for each day of the calendar month for the quarter.
4.4. Hourly movements per calendar month for arrivals and departures during the quarter.
The hourly movements per calendar month of the quarter for all aircraft movements operating in and out of the airport including helicopters and emergency aircraft are shown in Appendix D. The data in Appendix D are calculated for whole clock hours within the day.
4.5. Quarterly aircraft average noise levels.
Appendix E presents a summary of movement numbers and noise levels recorded over the quarter for jet and non-jet aircraft types. It shows the actual movements and the correlated noise events of aircraft types operating on specific runways together with the average maximum sound pressure levels and standard deviations of the maxima for overflights by each type at each NMT. The terms used in the data output are explained in the Glossary. The data is sorted in order of descending maximum sound pressure levels for the 25 noisiest types/operations at each NMT.

4.6. Data included in Appendix E.
It may be noted in Appendix E that in some cases there is a difference between the reported number of aircraft movements and the number of correlated noise events.
A noise event occurs when a noise being measured at an NMT stays above a preset level for a preset time duration. When that condition occurs, the NFPMS looks at the radar input to see whether there is an aircraft track within a preset radius around the NMT location. If there is, the noise event is correlated with that aircraft track and registered as a correlated noise event.
Differences between the number of aircraft movements and the number of correlated noise events may be due to the following:
(i) For aircraft operations which are not relatively close to the NMT location, the noise levels received from the aircraft may be below the event threshold level. This results in less correlated noise events than actual aircraft movements.
(ii) Noise events may not be correlated with aircraft tracks due to radar system downtime or transponders on the aircraft being turned off. This also results in less correlated noise events than actual aircraft movements.
(iii) In some cases, extraneous noise events caused by sources other than aircraft occur concurrently with an aircraft operation, and are coincidentally correlated with an aircraft track in the vicinity of the NMT. This may result in more correlated noise events than actual aircraft movements.
For larger data samples, the absence or mistaken identity of some noise events will have minimal effect on the mean data presented in the report. Data for small sample sizes may however not be truly representative. A minimum total of six over flights have been used to establish a mean noise level. As a result, it should be noted that with this small sample size the mean noise level can be viewed as being less accurate.

APPENDIX A
An overview of the Noise and Flight Path Monitoring System
Page 28Perth Quarterly Report PH12Q1
A. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
A.1. System configuration and features.
The NFPMS is the world's largest, most geographically-spread system of its type. The complete system is operated and controlled from AA Head Office in Canberra.
Around each of the airports are a number of noise monitoring terminals (NMTs). The NMT basically consists of a microphone, atop a mast of 6m height, and an electronics box. The noise level to which the microphone is exposed over the range 30 to 130 dB(A) is continuously measured and then transmitted, via a data line, to the NFPMS central computer where it is processed and stored for later analysis. Apart from measuring the aircraft noise, the NMT also continuously monitors the background noise levels.
Through the TAAATS system, the NFPMS acquires flight track and operational information on aircraft operating in and out of the airport.
On a map display for each airport, the system displays the noise levels measured by each of the NMTs and the flight tracks of the aircraft in the vicinity of the airport.
When the level and duration of noise from any noise source in the vicinity of an NMT exceed the threshold level and duration which have been set for the NMT, a "noise event" is recorded. The time at which the noise event is recorded at the NMT location is then checked against movement times and radar tracks of aircraft operating in the vicinity. If the time and NMT location of the noise event match the movement time and radar track of an aircraft, the noise event is attributed to that aircraft, i.e. it becomes a “correlated noise event”. Otherwise, it is regarded as part of the background noise.
The incoming data is stored in the central computer and can be recalled to display the tracks flown by any user selection of aircraft operations, together with the noise levels which those operations produced at the NMTs. The track information includes aircraft identity, altitude and speed.
The system includes statistical and acoustical software to undertake analyses of noise or flight track information as required by the user.
Automatically and regularly, the NFPMS produces reports that contain tabular and graphical summaries of noise and aircraft movement data for each airport over selected time periods.
The system includes the capability to analyse aircraft tracks, by selecting and listing the tracks which have passed through defined windows and corridors. The analysis can be selective, e.g. on specification of aircraft type or the route being flown.
Page 29Perth Quarterly Report PH12Q1
A.2. System applications.
The NFPMS collects noise and flight path data 24 hours a day, seven days per week. It also accumulates flight plan and weather data.
The information collected is used by AA to:
• determine the contribution of aircraft to overall noise exposure;
• detect occurrences of excessive noise levels from aircraft operations;
• assess the effects of operational and administrative procedures for noise control and compliance with these procedures;
• assist in planning of airspace usage;
• validate noise forecasts and forecasting techniques;
• assist relevant authorities in land-use planning for developments on areas in the vicinityof an airport;
• provide reports to, and responses to questions from, Government and other Members of Parliament, industry organisations, airport owners, community groups and individuals; and
• assist in answering noise complaints about aircraft operations from the general public.
