Airport tower and air traffic control for small and medium airports

Airport tower

Elevate airport efficiency: Cost-effective and space saving systems for tower operations

As passenger numbers rise, airports face the challenge of providing reliable and efficient air traffic control services without compromising on space or budget. Low-cost carriers' optimized processes intensify the pressure on ANSPs and airport operators to streamline approach, taxi, and departure operations. To meet these demands, airports require innovative and flexible solutions that can optimize air traffic control services while minimizing costs and infrastructure requirements.

The limited availability of space at airport towers and data centers means that any solution must be compact and scalable, allowing for easy integration into existing infrastructure. Advanced technologies and IP-based architectures can help modernize air traffic control systems, improving their overall efficiency and responsiveness to changing traffic conditions. By adopting these solutions, airports can ensure the highest levels of safety and reliability, minimizing disruptions to air traffic control services and maintaining passenger safety.

CERTIUM: The perfect fit for airport towers

  • Cost-effective, space-saving designs: Ideal for small and medium airports, with scalablity for international hubs.
  • Flexible configurations: Few controler working positions (CWPs) connected to multiple radios or dozens of CWPs with hundreds of radios, supporting high traffic volumes.
  • Real-time monitoring and analysis: R&S®AVQA analysis system ensures seamless system functionality, allowing air traffic controllers to focus on their core tasks.
  • Reliable direction finding technology: Geolocates aircraft, reducing call-sign confusion and read-back errors.
  • EUROCAE ED-136 and ED-137 compliance: CERTIUM components leverage IP technology for flexibility, resilience, and efficient airport operations.
