SSR Mode S
SSR Mode S relies on a unique ICAO
24-bit aircraft address for selective
interrogation of an individual aircraft.
16,777,214 aircraft addresses are
allocated in blocks by ICAO to the

SMR Features
SMR use a rotating antenna and the scan rate is usually
once per second.
They usually operate in the I-, J- and K- Band. Higher
resolution SMR operate between 92 and 96 GHz.

Radar components
The radar consists of four
major components :
transceiver,
antenna / pedestal,
Display/data processor
(DP), and
user display with control
suite.
Other items include a
slow start unit, dehydrator,

SMRi Transceiver
Featuring a common transmitter and two receivers for
redundancy, the SMRi Transceiver handles all RF
conversions, fully digital waveform generation and signal
processing.
The transmitter is comprised of hot-swappable modules
and meets all performance requirements when any one of
the modules fails.
The transceiver uses a combination of 16 frequencies
which improves performance in severe weather
conditions and ensures full frequency diversity when one
channel fails.

ASDE-X benefits
Due to the inherent problems associated with radio
frequency and radar transmissions, a single sensor
surveillance system may not provide a complete and
accurate depiction of a target to the controller.
The ASDE-X system mitigates this problem by fusing the
data from several different sources, primary and
secondary radar including MLAT and ADS-B, to provide
the most accurate target information as compared to
single sensor systems.The ASDE-X system receives the
ADS-B position report, the radar return, and MLAT
position report and fuses them into a single accurate
target report.

MLAT Multilateration
Multilateration (MLAT), known as Once MLAT units receive replies from the
Hyperbolic Positioning, is when an same aircraft, a central processing unit

Multilateration
Multilateration employs a number of MLAT in Action :

5. Aircraft Position Display
Since individual aircraft will be at
different distances from each of the
ground stations, their replies will be
received by each station at fractionally
different times.

Operational Image
Controllers in the tower see this information presented as a
color display of aircraft and vehicle positions overlaid on
a map of the airports runways/taxiways and approach
corridors.
The system essentially creates a continuously updated map of
the airport movement area that controllers can use to spot
potential collisions.

Alert
Alert - An actual situation involving two real safety
logic tracks (aircraft/aircraft, aircraft/vehicle, or
aircraft/other tangible object) that safety logic has
predicted will result in an imminent collision, based
upon the current set of Safety Logic parameters.
