Abstract

See full text

A system and method for avoiding aircraft collisions wherein a ground based monitoring station serves as one port of a wireless LAN operating according to a wireless communications protocol compatible with the IEEE 802.16e standard and derivatives thereof. A mobile unit associated produces respective position-dependent signals of an authorized object that are conveyed to the ground based monitoring station and to respective mobile units associated with other mobile units via the wireless LAN. A collision prediction unit is responsive to the position-dependent signals and to static position data of the airport infrastructure for predicting collisions between mobile objects or between a mobile object and the infrastructure. A warning unit coupled to the collision prediction unit and responsive to a predicted collision involving one or more mobile objects conveys a respective warning to the one or more mobile objects for allowing evasive action.
