Abstract :
An advanced SMGCS links airspace to airports to provide safety and efficiency during the gate-to-gate transfer of aircraft. This paper describes an advanced and flexible architecture for the surface movement radar and its integration in the SMGCS. The proposed architecture utilizes a network of millimeter-wave miniradars. Its main features are low cost and very high resolution, great flexibility and high reliability
