Thales to Supply Kazakhstan's Almaty Airport with A-SMGCS Kazakhstan's air navigation service provider, RSE Kazaeronavigatsia, has contracted with Thales to modernize the navigation-aid system at its Almaty airport that will include installing an A-SMGCS (advanced-surface movement guidance and control system). Thales' STREAMS A-SMGCS connects an X-Band radar, provided by Terma of Denmark, to a Thales display and processing system. It also includes ten Thales Mosquito vehicle localization systems and two of its AS 680 ADS-B (automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast) ground stations, which is the basic building block of the continent-wide ADS-B system deployed by Thales in Australia. The AS 680 is also the building block of Thales's in-house developed multilateration surveillance system. Besides A-SMGCS, Thales also will install two of its ILS (instrument landing systems), a DME (distance measuring equipment) station, and a DVOR (Doppler VHF omnidirectional range), also with DME, at the airport. Thales says STREAMS is already operational at several airports including South Korea's JeJu, Frankfurt and Munich, and is currently being deployed at five French airports along with South Korea's Incheon and Bangkok. 07-07-2007. |
