In this paper, we designed and fabricated the VHF wireless transmitter for air traffic control. Fundamental performance of the investigated wireless transmitter is designed and fabricated to satisfy existing commercial wireless transmitter specification for air traffic control. 25 W and 50 W of output power can be generated by changing the power amplification part only. It is based on transmitting voice communication using AM modulation. Investigated wireless transmitter for air traffic control consists of four module parts: power supply, control, low power transmission and power amplification. We designed 1W transmitter to operate without power amplification part. It can be used properly in a basic component of CNS/ATM.

This paper discusses the design and fabrication of a wireless VHF receiver for use in air traffic control. The VHF receiver was designed and tested in three modules: a control module, a receiver module and a power module, all of which were integrated into a single block for final testing. The fundamental performance of the receiver, and in particular, sensitivity, the most important factor, is designed to satisfy existing commercial wireless transmitter specifications for air traffic control. The receiver displays a sensitivity of -113 dBm, which is higher performance than existing commercial products, and is suitable for use as a basic component of CNS/ATM.

In this paper, the 25W power amplifier for UHF band radio transceiver has been designed and realized. The power amplifier was composed of drive, power amplifier and control stages. Feedback topology and coaxial line baluns were used for wide band operation. The VDMOS, which has reliable performance for linearity and efficiency, was used for power device and designed to operate as push-pull amplification at Class AB Bias. The power amplifier designed in such a way was found to show stable AM modulation performance when voice signal was detected at the gate stage, with being designed and realized to meet output specifications of commercial air traffic control transmitter.

This paper presents a simulation system for air traffic control (ATC) training. The structure of the ATC is analyzed to define simulation components to be developed. Requirements that must be satisfied by a training simulator are also identified. The results were reflected in the design of the simulator. The training simulator is composed of three modules same as in real life : air traffic controller, aircraft, radar. Each developed module performs the strict unit tests and combine test based on the scalability, ease, real-time, the operating range of the algorithm derived from the requirements. The simulation system can be connected to an actual ATC, and used to validate the ATC system. At peak load, 1200 aircraft and 30 radars can be operated simultaneously.

As the global air traffic volume has shown a rapid increase, doubling every 15 years since 1977, domestic and international air traffic control services and air navigation safety facility operation management system and status review It is necessary to present the feasibility of establishing an air traffic control agency with integrated functions and establish an operating system for an independent dedicated agency to provide advanced air traffic control services in preparation for the future air transport environment. In particular, in 2021, the national ATM reformation and enhancement (NARAE) a customized comprehensive plan for operations, facilities, and systems to handle air traffic safely and efficiently by actively reflecting changes in the navigation environment such as international policies and standards as this is established, the role of the air traffic control agency becomes more important, and an improved action plan for the control and navigation operating system must be promoted.

본 논문에서는 SDP 시스템이 충족해야 할 요구 규격을 검증하기 위하여 시험 환경 구축 방안을 제안하였다. SDP 시험 환경은 기능/성능/안정성 시험을 수행할 수 있도록 기존 항공관제시스템의 서브 시스템들과 동일한 기능을 수행하는 Simulation System들과 항적 추적 성능을 검증하기 위한 Eurocontrol의 SASS-C와 SMART 시스템으로 구축하였다. 또한 SDP 시험에 있어 Test Case 및 Test Procedure를 구성하여 SDP 요구 규격에 대한 정확한 검증을 수행할 수 있도록 시험 절차를 정의하였다. 제안된 시험 환경 및 시험 절차는 모의 시험을 통해 소프트웨어 구현 과정에서의 시스템 요구 규격에 대한 충족도를 보다 높일 수 있다.

As a sub-system of an air traffic control system, SDP(Surveillance Data Processor) provides with the system tracks of aircraft using the surveillance sensor data from various air traffic surveillance sensors, such as radars. Therefore, the high accuracy of tracking results is a crucial requirement for safe flights, and verification of the required system performance of SDP is an essential step in development. Moreover, the quantitative evaluation of target tracking accuracy is important for newly developed SDP, since there are several tracking methods for Multi-Sensor Multi-Target Tracking, such as MRT(Multi Radar Tracking), inevitably required as the main function of SDP. In this study, definition of required system performances, establishment of test environment, and test results for MRT performance evaluation of SDP, which is being developed in KARI(Korea Airspace Research Institute) are presented.

The flight data processing system is the system which processes and manages all flight related data for the aircraft control and performs the trajectory modeling. It takes charge of the role of performing the core function of the integrated information processing system for the flight control. For the safe aircraft's flight, the information transfer and exchange among air traffic control units are the essential element through the flight data processing. Therefore, for the development of the flight data processing system we are going to analyze its function and look into the necessary consideration in a design in this paper.

Recently, as domestic air traffic dramatically increases, the need of ATC(air traffic control) systems has grown for safe and efficient ATM(air traffic management). Especially, for smooth ATC, it is far more important that performance of display system which should show all air traffic situation in FIR(Flight Information Region) without additional latency is guaranteed. In this paper, we design a ASTERIX(All purpose STructured Eurocontrol suRveillance Information eXchange) parsing module to promote stable ATC by minimizing system loads, which is connected with reducing overheads arisen when we parse ASTERIX message. Our ASTERIX parsing module based on pattern matching creates patterns by analyzing received ASTERIX data, and handles following received ASTERIX data using pre-defined procedure through patterns. This module minimizes display errors by rapidly extracting only necessary information for display different from existing parsing module containing unnecessary parsing procedure. Therefore, this designed module is to enable controllers to operate stable ATC. The comparison with existing general bit level ASTERIX parsing module shows that ASTERIX parsing module based on pattern matching has shorter processing delay, higher throughput, and lower CPU usage.
