TOA and Phase Interferometry Sensor
Multilateration surveillance is the step beyond the high initial cost and annual maintenance costs of Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) and LAMS is the next step in multilateration.
Dubbed a “local area” system to highlight the small 100 meter footprint of the system itself, the tracking range extends beyond 60 nm with equivalent accuracy to a Secondary Surveillance Radar.
With compact receivers and all electronics completely contained in a small on-airport footprint, ANPC surveillance provides positional accuracy and update rates never before achieved at a fraction the cost of SSR and significantly lower cost than multilateration systems requiring widely dispersed sensor units.
LAMS can be deployed by first time technician trainees and made operational in less than 2 hours, certainly the fastest deployment possible of any transponder multilateration system.
From a combination of time-of-arrival and angle-of-arrival measurements of each aircrafts transponder replies, LAMS positional information can be applied to air traffic solutions covering a wide range of services meeting the demand for increased safety, separation and incursion avoidance.
ANPC provides surveillance products for:
- multilateration
- parallel runway monitoring
- ADS-B surveillance
- wide area surveillance
- runway anti-incursion (active and passive)
- precision approach radar
