Abstract

In Poland, a problem of lack of radar coverage at certain flight levels over certain regions of the country is being observed. Therefore, the Polish Air Navigation Services Agency is looking for some better surveillance solutions for airspace and airport surface. Multilateration system (MLAT) are part of the technology used in aviation for many years. Originally developed for military purposes - to identify and determine the position of military airplanes in the air. In the system TDOA location method was used (Time Difference of Arrival) - the difference between flight time of the aircraft over the sensors.

Economic analyzes have shown that the installation and maintenance of the MLAT, is cheaper and provide more benefits than installing an additional SSR radar. The MLAT can provide the desired coverage area, and most importantly - can more quickly increase the accuracy of navigation of the aircraft. In addition, it is worth noting that no moving part of MLAT system is its additional advantage. The paper presents an analysis of surveillance systems with particular emphasis on the of the possibility of replacing radar systems with multilateration. Improving the reliability of the system utility can be done by reducing the recovery time of suitability.
