Dec 12, 2017 (newstodate): Denmark's Air Navigation Service Provider NAVIAIR has enhanced the surveillance of the country's airspace with a new system, delivered by Comsoft.
Comsoft has thus completed the installation and onsite testing of the Comsoft Solutions Quadrant Sensors across Denmark, for high accuracy multilateration coverage, enhancing surveillance and airspace safety while reducing operational costs.
Surveillance of Denmarks 61,000 square km of airspace and approaches is now fully supported by multilateration techniques, facilitated by Quadrant Sensors and Quadrant Transmitters at 30 locations including Aalborg, Aarhus, Billund, Copenhagen and Roskilde airports.
The geometry of Quadrant Sensor positions and the high-precision time-stamping of received transponder messages enable accurate positions to be determined, providing considerable range over secondary radar, with better accuracy and higher update rates but at significantly lower costs
