En Route Airport/Airfield Radars
The first ATC Surveillance Radars in the UK, connected cross site by optical fibres, was by FTI in 1984 for the CAA at Stornoway, Isle of Lewis. Replacing BT's leased landlines, project pay back period was 5 years.
FTI has Networked (IP & Legacy Non-IP) the following types of ATC Air Traffic Control Surveillance Radars:
ADS-B Auto Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast
MLAT Multilateration
PAR Precision Approach Radar
PSR Primary Surveillance Radar
SMR Surface Movement Radar
SSR Secondary Surveillance Radar
Radar Flight Displays
Networked to Control Towers over Leased Telecom lines and Optical Fibre cables.
FTI has provided a migration path from legacy Analogue to IP, following the withdrawal of Analogue Services by Telecom Providers.
