Title Transportable ATC Systems Metrology

Abstract

Passenger traffic dropped 90% at the peak of the coronavirus pandemic according to an International Air Traffic Association (IATA) analysis in December 2020 and the complexity of restarting air transport is still evident today. New business models and technical solutions have to be figured out. Dual use technologies in the Air Traffic Control (ATC) domain seems to gain consideration moving towards a global two-way interoperability concept for peaceful and defense aims. The paper presents the Selex–SI, now Leonardo S.p.A., transportable ATC system consisting of a control center integrated with a radar system for easy deployment and set-up for civil and defense missions as required. The developed solution allows use in different scenarios: gap-filler, maintenance coverage, border control, crisis management, planned or unplanned defense mission. The system -which is already commissioned to various customers- could manage the Approach and the Terminal Area along with emergency scenarios.
