Remote digital tower

Rethinking airport operations

Using the latest digital tower technologies from Frequentis, airports can futureproof their ATC operations at significantly lower cost than renovating or rebuilding a conventional tower. With a digital tower, operated locally or remotely, existing staff resources can work more flexibly and efficiently to manage growing volumes of traffic.

A Frequentis remote tower solution is fully scalable from a single instance to a multi remote tower centre in which a central team of controllers manages multiple airports.

Frequentis remote digital tower solution deployed by 12 customers at 16 airports
Up to 80% Capex savings by avoiding the construction and maintenance of a conventional tower
Up to 18% Opex savings through improved staff planning and technology harmonisation

End-to-end turnkey solutions

Frequentis provides a complete portfolio of the integrated technologies required for a remote digital tower, including camera-based visualisation, voice communication, meteorological information, airfield lighting and flight data handling. In addition, Frequentis offers turnkey solutions that incorporate support throughout the process of gaining regulatory approval. For this service, we have partnered with one of the leading global ANSPs Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH, through its wholly owned subsidiary DFS Aviation Services, to create the joint venture FREQUENTIS DFS AEROSENSE.

Taking advantage of integrated solutions based on field-proven technology from Frequentis, airports can adopt innovative operating models to boost their efficiency, all while complying fully with the relevant regulations and standards.

Products & Solutions

smartVISION

smartVISION is a video-based visualisation solution optimised for ATC and airport environments. It provides ATC-grade video presentation in combination with support and augmentation functions to support the air traffic controller (ATCO) workflow and increase efficiency, situation awareness and safety.

TowerPad

Since 2008, TowerPad has been in active service at several major airports, providing artificial intelligence to support advanced user-centric automation services for air traffic controllers. The product has been proven to reduce costs for airlines, airports and ANSPs. It also improves safety and reduces taxi times, and consequently the environmental impact of airport traffic.

smartTOOLS

smartTOOLS – the Frequentis integrated information and control system – provides a complete portfolio of applications related to tower and runway control, and weather information. Deployed worldwide in more than 36 countries, smartTOOLS can be tailored to any environment, from regional to high-capacity towers. By enabling significant automation, smartTOOLS helps reduce costs while increasing efficiency and safety.

smartSTRIPS

Whether your tower is located at one of the world’s busiest hubs or at a quiet regional airfield – or anything in between – Frequentis offers the ideal flight data management product for supporting your tower digitalisation programme. smartSTRIPS, our flight data management product, is designed for towers and approach units of all sizes and degrees of operational complexity.

X10 Voice Communication Solution

X10 is Frequentis’ innovative voice communication solution based on a state-of-the-art service-oriented architecture, facilitating the transition of pure ATM-based voice communications to Unified Aeronautical Communications. Operating on the Frequentis MosaiX platform, it can easily be integrated with other technologies from the Frequentis portfolio to deliver strong operational benefits.

Departure Manager (DMAN)

The Frequentis Departure Manager solution supports consistent optimised planning of outbound airport traffic, in turn driving optimised target times at the runway and the stands. Its key objectives are the efficient management of airport departure traffic, to ensure maximum utilisation of the available runway capacity, and the appropriate management of additional constraints such as Minimum Departure Intervals (MDIs) and Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) requirements.

Integrated Arrival Departure Manager (IAD)

It can be difficult to optimise runway usage at high-demand, capacity-constrained airports, especially in the case of mixed-mode operations at airports that have just one runway for both arrivals and departures. The Frequentis Integrated Arrival Departure Manager (IAD) solution addresses the challenge of balancing arrivals and departures for maximised airport performance, for example by optimising the efficiency of integrating departures into the arrival stream.

Remote Digital Tower

Deployed in a Remote Digital Tower scenario, Frequentis Digital Tower solutions enable the remote provision of ATC services from different geographic locations, using a multitude of local sensors to give controllers the situational awareness needed to safely operate an airport. An ATM-grade network provides reliability and performance to safely connect the remote airport with the remote tower control centre.
