Key features

ERDIS is a state-of-the-art Air Traffic Management Automation System developed by the company ELDIS Pardubice and designed for the civilian, military and civ/mil joint ATM centres. The ERDIS system supports surveillance and/or procedural air traffic control operations for En-route (ACC), Approach (APP) and Tower (TWR) control and planning air traffic services. System is designed for fail-safe 24/7 operation costs.

RL-2000 is the latest generation of ELDIS primary surveillance radars for Terminal Approach Control Area. The radar meets or exceeds EUROCONTROL and ICAO standards and recommendations. RL-2000 features a fully solid-state highly modular configuration a fail-safe system and low life cycle costs. RL-2000 can be customized to meet specific customer requirements.

The Monopulse Secondary Surveillance Radar is a fully modular system, which meets or exceeds ICAO and MARK X recommendations and standards and allows extension according to increasing customer needs. Individual modules of the equipment can be used either in new or in older MSSR systems.

The PAR-E precision approach radar provides important support for the approach and landing control of various aircrafts, including the emergency landing due to avionics failure. The radar utilizes an active electronic scanning antennas (AESA) both in the azimuth and the elevation which allow operation without mechanical movement of the antennas. The radar meets relevant ICAO standards and follows the NATO Vision document, according to which the PAR technology will be used at least until 2040. The PAR-E Precision Approach Radar is designed for target detection such as aircraft, ground objects and meteorological formations. The detected information is displayed on workplace screens and radar information is transferred to remote ATC workplaces. The radar is particularly important in situations when the pilot has limited sight (because of fog, rain, etc.). In this situation, the radar has to provide the approach controller with maximum quality radar display complemented by computer evaluation of speed, deviations from glide path/course line, the distance from the previously approaching aircraft, etc.

Mobile Air Traffic Control Tower serves for navigation and air traffic control at provisional air stripes. Navigation is possible for various aircrafts depending on the equipment installed, available radars and systems for air traffic control connectivity and interoperability. Each Control Tower can be manufactured specifically for the customer.

Each system equipment or unit is fitted with independent BITE diagnostics to carry out performance monitoring and automatic system backup changeover at system level. LCMS is located on radar site, RCMS can be located in remote technical room in Control tower (TWR), etc. The CMS consists of radar status and performance monitoring and allows the authorized personnel to control and adjust radar configuration and parameters remotely. CMS incorporates a user-friendly graphical interface which is used for data and status presentation.

Communications subsystem consisting of VHF Radio stations, Voice Communication and Control System and Voice and Data recording system is optionally integrated in Ground Control Approach radar set.
