The TRADIS (Traffic Display) TD 100

Over the years, many display installations have been realized by HITT staff as elements of complex ATC positions such as Approach Control and SMSS. The TD 100 display is the ultimate result of this experience. Responding to the market need for small scale systems to display ATC relevant information, HITT Special Products positions the TD 100 as a standard product in the ATC display market.

The TRADIS TD 100 is a low-cost, user friendly Track Display, designed for Air Traffic Control of regional airports. The TD 100 display provides the controller with the functionality required for safe and efficient air traffic control, including track filtering, track flight plan coupling, recording, replay and archiving functions. Furthermore the display is most suitable for training and evaluation purposes. The TD 100 can easily be configure by the user and connected to existing infrastructures.

One of these infrastructures is formed by the ARTAS system. Apart from displaying the data, also interfacing to this network and specification of the domain of interest by the user are important issues. Therefore, an increasing need for simple, but powerfull applications to communicate with this type of information networks arises. To satisfy these needs, HITT Special Products has developed the ARTAS User Interface.

The ARTAS User Interface.

The ARTAS (ATC Radar Tracker and Server) User Interface product provides an easy and standard way of communication between the customer's ATC system and the ARTAS radar data processing and distribution system.

Combination of the TRADIS TD 100 with the ARTAS User Interface provides the user with a powerfull, small scale Air Traffic Control facility.

Surface Movement Surveillance Systems

HITT's Surface Movement Surveillance Systems are fully implemented in software applying defacto industry standards while running on COTS (Commercial Of The Shelf) hardware, easy maintenance and adaptation to future system requirements is guaranteed. As such, HITT's Surface Movement Surveillance Systems technology secures the best price/performance ratio and lowest system life cycle costs.

HITT provides a full line of Surface Movement Surveillance Systems from single Surface Movement Radar Systems equipped with video display up to fully integrated Surface Movement Guidance and Control Systems including a wide variety of alerting functions and control facilities.

HITT's Surface Movement Surveillance Systems can incorporate one or more radars. If more than one radar is applied, the system provides the user with a continuous integrated radar video and (optional) track display. For integration of track data originating from different radars an optional Multi Radar Tracker can be offered. Multi Radar Tracker can also be applied to integrate data from transponder based systems (Mode-S/GPS).

HITT's Surface Movement Surveillance Systems can be delivered with automatic tracking and labelling functions. In combination with tracking and labelling functionality, radar alerting function, such as runway incursion alerts and airport area intrusion alerts can be supplied.

HITT's project quality is assured by applying international recognized development and implementation standards. HITT applies the ISO 9001, DOD-std-2167A and MIL-std-490A standards for system and software specification, design, implementation, integration and test.

APProach Control Systems

HITT introduces its new Approach Control System concept, specifically developed for handling the departure and arrival of aircraft on small and medium size airports.

The systems consist of three sub-systems : Radar Data Processing, Flight Plan Processing and Display Processing. Each of these systems is designed to operate either stand-alone or as an integrated system. This modular concept allows Civil Aviation Authorities to select the system configuration tailored to their actual needs (low initial investments) with the guarantee that extending the systems capacity and functionality to accomodate future traffic growths is possible while preserving investments made.

Strict adherence to internationally accepted industry standards, ICAO rules and EUROCONTROL specifications and guidelines, ensures a simple integration with systems supplied by other manufacturers, thus preventing Civil Aviation Authorities from becoming dependent on single supplier.

Functional Description :

Radar Data Processing : * Primary Radar Tracking, * Secondary Radar Tracking, * Multi Radar Tracking, * Conflict alerts, * Area infringement warnings.

Flight Plan Processing : * Flight Plan Input and update, * Repetitive Plan input and maintenance, * AFTN input and output (option), * Meteo data input (option), * SSR code management (option), * Route extraction (option), * Paper or electronic strips, * Batch or timed strip printing, * Fault tolerant server architecture (option).

Display Processing : * Track presentation, * Video presentation (option), * Display of arrival and departure lists (option), * Multi window, * Multi head capability (option), * Geographic map presentation, * Various controller input functions.

Vessel Traffic Management Technology

Vessel Traffic Controller carry a major responsibility for the avoidance of collisions and incidents. As such, they are entitled to the best tools available in executing this responsibility. The task of the VTS operator is supported by :

• Automatic clutter suppression in all weather conditions
• Automatic track initiation and labelling.

comprise the following major functions (these can easily be adjusted to meet specific customer requirements) :

• Identification of ship, shipowner, size, port of departure, port of destination, composition of cargo, etc.
• Depending on the local circumtances, incident and emergency communication systems can be incorporated. Basically these systems inform all organizations concerned, automatically, about an (expected) event, which requires immediate action to prevent an incident.
• Traffic Flow Management (port entry/ exit clearance).

The design allows the customer freedom in the choice of sensors such as the type of radar, (D)GPS and RDF. HITT integrate it all to create a perfect symphony.
