This report defines the Representative System Configurations to be evaluated against the requirements outlined in the AHS Maneuver Definition and Functional Requirements Document. Six concepts are defined and their basic functions described and allocated. Concepts are described at a very high level and do not represent detailed designs. The intent of these concepts is to provide a wide range of differing concepts to be able to develop a preliminary understanding of what the elements of successful AHS concepts will be. In addition, various concept-dependent issues surrounding possible implementation of each of the concepts are identified for future consideration. Some analysis and suggestions for implementation are included where appropriate.
