The Easat X-Trac Surface Movement Radar (SMR) provides Radar Surveillance of Aircraft, vehicles and other objects within the Airport Perimeter (Runways, Taxiways, Parking, and Apron Areas) for the Air Traffic Controllers. The Design of the Radar System helps ensure Detection and Tracking of very small targets in severe clutter (Rain, Fog, Snow) and other Reduced Visibility Conditions.
Easat’s SMR can be supplied as a standalone Surface Movement Radar System or integrated into Advanced Surface Movement and Guidance Control System (A-SMGCS) without any modification or enhancements required.
