Air navigation safety: Monitoring challenges

As an air navigation service provider (ANSP), you are responsible for the air-traffic safety of multiple users – including airlines, military and private pilots as well as non-cooperative aircraft. You need perfect awareness of the situation in the air at all times.

You need to detect aircraft of a wide range of sizes, speeds and altitudes. You must monitor unmanned aerial vehicles and drones while also contending with increasing numbers of wind turbines near airports. You also face highly dynamic, cluttered environments and interference from disturbing signals such as 4G/LTE.

Safe air-traffic management

In short, you need to limit incident risks while increasing flight safety for the aircraft under your control.

With modular, scalable, state-of-the-art air-surveillance radar and approach control, HENSOLDT offers the capability for safe air-traffic management by regional and major international airports.

ASR-NG – The ATC solution for where high performance matters

HENSOLDT’s ASR-NG is a combined primary and secondary surveillance radar with class-leading performance characteristics:

  • PSR – S-Band, 120NM range, 3D, proven wind farm mitigation
  • SSR – Dual-redundant, 256NM range, Civil Modes A, C, S, Military Modes 1, 3, 5
ASR-NG civil triple beam

Primary surveillance radar

ASR-NG’s unique S-Band three-horn/three-beam PSR architecture delivers unmatched situational awareness of non-cooperative targets.

The low, pencil, beam is used to dynamically update anti-clutter processing, to maintain accurate tracks over wind farms and prevent the initiation of false tracks.
