Thales, in collaboration with native accomplice Aerospace Engineering, proudly declares the profitable deployment in Kazakhstan of its state-of-the-art Superior Floor Motion Steering & Management System (A-SMGCS) in Astana Airport. This milestone marks a major leap in aviation expertise following the primary related profitable implementation at Almaty Airport.
A pivotal characteristic built-in into each programs is the set up of Multilateration (MLAT) expertise – particularly the Thales’ MAGS – an modern expertise which very precisely find the plane through the use of a technique generally known as Time Distinction of Arrival (TDOA). Multilateration employs floor stations, positioned in strategic places round an airport. This expertise implementation at Astana Airport was the second in Kazakhstan – the primary being in Almaty and in addition deployed by Thales.
This surveillance system empowers air visitors controllers with a further sensor resolution for complete floor and air visitors surveillance. Notably efficient in monitoring arrival and departure visitors or overseeing areas the place typical radars face limitations or impracticality, MAGS has been very dependable. These programs have been deployed seamlessly regardless of stringent native local weather constraints so as to by no means interrupt airport operations.
The Superior Floor Motion Steering & Management System deployed in Almaty and Astana airports emphasizes reliability and elevates security requirements. The incorporation of the –“Airport Security Nets” module throughout the TopSky – Tower system performs a key position in safeguarding runways and designated areas. The module acts as a vigilant guardian, alerting controllers promptly in instances of potential conflicts between automobiles – be it plane or different sorts of automobiles – on runways and the unauthorized incursion of automobiles into restricted areas.
“We’re happy to contribute to bettering surveillance and air visitors operations within the airports of Astana and Almaty with our built-in system that mixes TopSky-Tower, MLAT and using SMR radar information. The coordination of various companions, using the most effective performing gear and the customization of the answer to particular buyer wants have been a number of the challenges of the mission, which has been achieved because of the collaboration and alignment of all events concerned” Christian Rivierre, VP Airspace Mobility Options – Thales
