This document presents baseline functional requirements for a prototype NASA research Upper Class E Traffic Management (ETM) system to enable the cooperative separation concept [1, 2]. The baseline functional requirements are developed by incorporating inputs from NASA and the FAA researchers and engineering staff, and industry partners while accounting for the unique performance characteristics and mission needs of various existing and future ETM vehicle types. The functionalities include information sharing for situational awareness, conformance monitoring, and operating practices for cooperative separation. Several realistic traffic scenarios were built to test, validate, and demonstrate the cooperatively managed operation in the ETM environment and the associated capabilities in a simulation environment.
