Thales standard airport Primary Surveillance Radar (PSR) is the STAR 2000. The radar is quite advanced with a number of existing in-built capabilities for mitigating the effects of wind turbines. [...]

What Are Obstacle Limitation Surfaces? The UK has [1] 129 licensed civil aerodromes (and even more unlicensed aerodromes). In order to protect aircraft against potential collision risk, it is necessary to [...]

RAF Objections Renewable energy developers in the UK regularly face objections from the Royal Air Force (RAF) /Ministry Of Defence (MOD). This is particularly common for wind developments due to [...]

An available low cost system for mitigating the effects of wind farms on air traffic control (ATC) radar systems. The system is made by C Speed based in Liverpool, New [...]

Modern aviation infrastructure around the world is underpinned by sophisticated electronic equipment. This ranges from well-known apparatus like radar to lesser-known equipment such as Instrument Landing Systems (ILS), navigation beacons, [...]

Wind turbines interfere with airport and military radar systems so various companies are trying to fix the problem. There are at least 50 mitigation solutions that have reared their head [...]

Wind turbines interfere with airport and defence radar system. Terma of Denmark supplies a radar which can detect aircraft whilst ignoring wind turbines. A lot of quite complex technical information [...]

Across the globe tens of GWs of wind turbine development have been hindered by stringent radar safeguarding criteria. Especially long range Air Defence Radar are often the source of sustained [...]

Aeronautical radio systems are used for communications between air traffic controllers and pilots. They are referred to as Air Ground Air (AGA) systems and operate in the Very High Frequency [...]

I am planning to build a wind farm in the UK. I am aware that wind turbines can affect civil and military airports, radar and radio systems.  How can I [...]
