Multilateration

Based on 1090 MHz signals (Mode A/C/S, 1090 ES)

Requires >4 receivers with line of sight to target, or, at least 3 receivers + baro altitude

Geometry-dependent – proper site planning is critical

Transmitter required for Mode A/C compatibility

Multi Multilate latera ration tion System System Con Configura figuration tions: s:

MLAT: airport surface surveillance

PAM and TMA MLAT: precision approach monitoring or airport terminal area surveillance

Country-wide WAM: en-route surveillance (Wide Area Multilateration)

Siting Concept

 DFS concluded a comprehensive initial site survey presenting a selection of

more than 80 sites for tenderers to choose from

 Thales identified 34 sites (12 of these for airport GND alone)

and their respective role

 Main driver: low level visibility, rather than power budget  Re-use existing sites as far as practial  Requires system adaptability: antenna types, EMC,

communication, packaging, lightning protection, etc.

 Confirmed findings in final site survey
