[7] The network has further been enhanced through the installation of 8 new polarimetric Meteor 735 radars across WA, [8] NSW [9] & Victoria, [10] and two polarimetric WRM200 radars [11] manufactured by Vaisala, one to replace the ...
The TCUs in Perth and Sydney are responsible for providing air traffic control services in their TMAs, covering a radius of 36 nautical miles (67 km) around Perth, and 45 nautical miles (83 km) around Sydney; and vertical coverage from the surface to 18,000 feet (5,500 m) around Perth and 28,000 feet (8,500 m) around Sydney.
An airport surveillance radar (ASR) is a radar system used at airports to detect and display the presence and position of aircraft in the terminal area, the airspace around airports. It is the main air traffic control system for the airspace around airports. At large airports it typically controls traffic within a radius of 60 miles (96 km) of ...
Perth Airport (IATA: PER, ICAO: YPPH) is an international, domestic and general aviation airport serving Perth, the capital city of Western Australia..

CARSR has a 200-nautical-mile (370 km; 230 mi) range, and shares transmitter components and software with the FAA's new airport surveillance radar, the ASR-11. Like the ASR-11, CARSR is completely solid state. Westinghouse built ARSR-3. ARSR-3 and 3D search radar were used by the FAA in the Joint Surveillance System (JSS). The radar operated in ...
ASR-9 is an airport surveillance radar system admitted into the National Airspace System (NAS), to be utilized by the Federal Aviation Administration to monitor civilian and commercial air traffic within the United States. Developed by Westinghouse, ASR-9 was the first radar system to display air traffic, and weather conditions simultaneously.
It may also be used at night time and during low visibility to monitor the movement of aircraft and vehicles. Surface movement radar is the term accepted by ICAO, but it has historically been known by other names such as ground movement radar, airport surface detection equipment (ASDE) and airfield surface movement indicator.
