Management of radar tracking systems for air traffic control
Juan Alberto Besada, J. Garcia, Gonzalo de Miguel, José R. Casar · 2003
This paper describes a novel methodology for the adaptive management of radar systems or radar networks used for air traffic control. It is based on linking radar tracking system overall resources consumption with air traffic control operational requirements. The method is exemplified with the design of a tracking function for a multifunction ESA radar. Some simulation results for this system are provided, showing the interest of such a concept, in terms of lowering of resources consumption and fulfillment of operational requirements.
