Development of a data transmission network for remote flight control at the Magadan oblast airport

Implementation of the method of Remote and Virtual Tower, or Remote Tower Service (RTS), for air traffic management at small-size airports is a modern task. This method ensures an increased efficiency of air traffic at small- and medium-sized airports from an economic point of view. The operation of airports with a low flight intensity is an important element of the air navigation system in Russia. Here, the largest part of airports is characterized by the traffic intensity not exceeding 10 landing and take-off operations during the day. In this regard, there is a need to use radio engineering support for flights at such airports. This article addresses the specifics of implementation of RTS technology in small-sized airports. The results of using wireless broadband access (WBA) to build data transmission networks (DTN) are presented. Grounds for selecting a DTN model in airports with a low flight intensity are analyzed and justified.
