Overview
These systems are configured with functionality required
to support the range operation. Their streamlined user interface is entirely
graphics driven. The systems are housed on the latest Intel processors
running the Red Hat Linux operating system. Their hardware footprint size
is small enough for use in the cramped quarters of range towers.
The
ASAC/B enhances range safety by providing range control officers with
enhanced ability to detect range airspace intruders and the information
required to avoid midair collisions. It also monitors participating
aircraft, which is needed in high altitude or standoff deliveries,
where visual detection and vector estimation of aircraft delivering
weapons is difficult and conditions with poor visibility. ASAC information
is also helpful in pattern monitoring, avoiding range airspace spillouts
and in de-conflicting arriving and departing flights. It also provides a
digital recording of range radar tracks for assistance in debriefing and
range safety analysis.
The
ASAC/B is a branch of the ASAC family of products. The system exploits
current generation tools and hardware to provide accuracy, functionality
and maintainability as well as a high level of performance. The ASAC/B is
fully scalable and can grow with the users needs. Features can be added
from our base system to expand its capabilities and user
friendliness.
