Indra, one of the leading global technology and consulting companies, has successfully completed the modernization project of two secondary transportable radars IRS 20-MP/S of the Brazilian Air Force (FAB), also supplied by the company. The equipment helps to control movements in the country's airspace and is capable of replacing air surveillance radars, in the event of long interruptions in their operation, in addition to maintaining high general availability of the surveillance service for General Air Circulation.

 

The radars are the responsibility of the Rio de Janeiro Air Force Electronic Material Park (PAME-RJ), under the coordination of the Radiodetermination Subdivision (RAD) of the Technical Division. The conclusion of the project took place through field acceptance tests (TAC) of the electronic, electrical and mechanical/structural modernization process of the two transportable secondary radar units. One of the equipment is installed in Petrolina, in the state of Pernambuco, and the other will be installed in Bom Jesus da Lapa, in Bahia.

 

The objective of the modernization project was to equip the radar systems with the most advanced digital functionalities, capable of increasing the accuracy and quality of the data collected, in addition to expanding their coverage. For this, it was decided to implement an ADS-B signal reception and treatment system (Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast) or Automatic Dependent Air Surveillance System by Broadcasting, which will detect aircraft together with the radar system, thus improving , the quality of received signals and increasing the probability of aircraft detection, in addition to contributing to the reduction of maintenance costs.

 

Manufactured by Indra and delivered to the Commission for the Implementation of the Airspace Control System (CISCEA) in 2011, the IRS-20MP/S transportable radars have a range of 256 NM (approximately 500 km) and are capable of operating in S, maximum precision standard for aircraft identification, which can act in the aircraft approach phases or during en route flight.

 

Recently, members of the Commission for the Implementation of the Airspace Control System (CISCEA) and the Electronic Material Park of the Aeronautics of Rio de Janeiro (PAME-RJ) completed advanced theoretical and practical training in optimization, configuration and plot extraction and tracking of the IRS 20-MP/S radars at Indra's facilities in Spain.

 

Indra is a global leader in air traffic management and, in recent years, has modernized the systems of 25 countries in Latin America. Today, two out of three control centers on the continent use the airline's systems to manage airspace in a more efficient, safe and environmentally responsible way.

 

The Most Advanced Radar Systems

 

Indra is one of the world's leading manufacturers of radars, used both in mobility protection and in transport and defence. Working for more than forty years on the development of these systems, Indra has exported its equipment to the five continents, is NATO's main supplier and, in addition, has one of the largest radar factories in Europe, with more than 7,000 square meters and 200 specialized professionals.

 

The company has developed one of the most powerful and advanced space surveillance radars in the world, capable of detecting objects orbiting more than 2,000 kilometers from Earth and which is responsible for protecting launches, satellites and the International Space Station.

 

Indra in Brazil

 

Present in Brazil since 1996, Indra is one of the main technology and consulting companies in the country. It has more than 9 thousand professionals, offices distributed in the main Brazilian states and four Production Centers. The company is part of some of the most innovative projects for economic and technological development in Brazil in the Transport & Defense and Information Technology (IT) sectors, which are grouped in its subsidiary Minsait.
