Air Traffic Control (ATC) is a vital component of aviation safety, responsible for managing and guiding aircraft in the airspace. However, false targets in the context of processing errors pose a significant challenge to ATC operations. This article aims to explore the impact of false targets on ATC services, provide a definition, present examples, and discuss scenarios that highlight their consequences.

Processing errors in AI analytics within air traffic control can jeopardize system accuracy, safety, and efficiency. This article explores causes, impacts, and remedies, emphasizing the need for rigorous testing and human oversight to mitigate risks.

In this video we show how FreeScopes can track and differentiate multiple targets, plot the history dots and indicate direction and speed with a speed vector.

Data correlation errors can have a significant impact on Air Traffic Control (ATC) operations, leading to processing errors. Incorrectly correlated data can result in inaccurate aircraft position information, which may compromise safe separation and increase the risk of collisions or airspace congestion.

This article explores the general transformation of cybersecurity, shifting from conventional infrastructure to a human-centric approach. Applied to Air Traffic Management these new trends are catering to ATM and the role of Air Traffic Safety Electronic Personnel (ATSEP).

Exploring AI's role in Air Traffic Control: How contrail mitigation through technology can reduce aviation's climate impact. A sustainable ATC future.

As Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) and regulators seek to bolster their cybersecurity defenses, the debate over whether to include a Computer Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT) within the Air Traffic Safety Electronics Personnel (ATSEP) structure or as part of an IT team remains ongoing.

Receiver-related clutter errors can significantly impact Air Traffic Control (ATC) services, compromising safety and efficiency. This article delves into the definition of receiver-related clutter errors, examines their causes, illustrates their impact through pedagogical scenarios, discusses common types of such errors, outlines their consequences, highlights reported aviation incidents, provides rectification steps for Air Traffic Safety Electronics Personnel (ATSEP), suggests prevention measures, presents general research highlights, and offers relevant references.

In the world of air traffic management, the training of Air Traffic Safety Electronics Personnel (ATSEP) is the backbone of safety and effective operations. The proper qualification of ATSEP professionals is vital for ensuring the safety, efficiency, and reliability of communication, navigation, surveillance, and technical systems in aviation.

To meet compliance standards outlined in documents such as ICAO 10057 and EASA Easy Access Rules ATM, practical training becomes a crucial element. This article emphasizes the significance of practical qualification and highlights the contributions of SkyRadar, a leading manufacturer of aviation training equipment, in meeting these requirements.
