ATC Surveillance/Communication Analysis and Planning.
Abstract
FAA funded ATC Surveillance/Communication Analysis and Planning activities during the period 1 September to 30 November 1972 are reported. Items reviewed include: (1) analyses of S/C requirements, near-miss/collision data, desirable weather data processing and display systems, recorded data from an operational ATCRBS/ARTS-3 site, (2) a quasi-step-scan radar technique potentially capable of improving the clutter-rejection performance of existing ATC radars, and (3) the status of a test program to obtain and analyze data on the effects of cyclically switching between transponder antennas.
