AO-0102 — Automated Alerting of Controller in Case of Runway Incursion or Intrusion into Restricted Areas

The system detects conflicts and infringements of some ATC rules involving aircraft or vehicles on runways, and provides the controller with appropriate alerts. Whereas the detection of conflicts identifies a possibility of a collision between aircraft and/or vehicles, the detection of infringements focuses on dangerous situations because one or more mobiles infringed ATC rules. This improvement addresses also incursions by an aircraft into an area where the presence of an aircraft (or vehicle) is temporarily restricted or forbidden (e.g. closed taxiway, ILS or MLS critical area).
