The Mosaic Radar Hand-Off System

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

The Mosaic Radar System combines the coverage from multiple unsynchronized surveillance radars, each covering adjacent geographical areas. Some new techniques are presented and their application to the design of a complete Air Traffic Control system. One of the important features of the system is the positive radar hand-off capability-the means by which transfer of control is effected between controllers responsible for aircraft in adjoining sectors.
