RADAR Report

i think alot of you guys are writing up on ADS/CPDLC.

somehow i don't feel that those 2 systems are technically a RADAR.

look at TOmmy's notes Pg 5


'.... radar range ...up to 200nm.... radar range limited by earth curvature.... no system for oceanic control.... using procedural control........ satellite-based technology like ADS/CPDLC.....'

i sent Ralph a string of text that further emphasizes this, check with him, i lost the msg convo.


to give a better idea, i saw the below somewhere:


The following Air Traffic Control (ATC) surveillance, approach and landing radars are commonly used in Air Traffic Management (ATM):

  • en-route RADAR systems,
  • Air Surveillance (ASR) systems,
  • Precision App RADAR (PAR) systems,
  • Surface Movement RADARs
  • special weather RADARs


I may not be entirely correct.

Do your own research and verify my info for yourself
