Selex ES has delivered Hanoi's new air traffic management system ahead of schedule
Selex ES delivered a new Hanoi's air traffic management system ahead of schedule to the Vietnamese Air Traffic Management Organization (VATM). The system was put in operation just 22 months after the date of contract award.
The project was noted as a particular success given the advanced equipment supplied. The complete system included an automated air traffic management system with 24 new Control Working Positions (CWPs).
In case of needs, four complete CWP suite can be reallocated as Ho Chi Minh backup air traffic center. The operational environment was supplied together with an advanced simulator to aid the training of air traffic controllers, and a test and evaluation system.
The new air traffic management system features flight plan and trajectory management, route conflict detection, multiple windows screen and functions required by international air traffic safety organizations such as ICAO and EUROCONTROL. The system also integrates with Finmeccanica - Selex ES's surveillance radars and Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (ADS-B) ground stations as well as the Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control System (A-SMGCS) already operating in Vietnam.
Selex ES also integrated the latest communication standards such as ATS Interfacility Data Communications (AIDC), Aeronautical Fixed Telecommunication Network (AFTN), ATS Message Handling System (AMHS) and Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) to secure communications between land and air into the new ATC system making it one of the most advanced in the region.
