Remote towers refer to air traffic control towers that are remotely located, either near or far from airports and provide Air Traffic Services (ATS) remotely through a real-time visual reproduction of the airport via high-definition cameras. Remote towers replace an air traffic control operator’s direct out-of-the-window view with a live video feed. These towers consist of workstations known as Controller Working Positions (CWPs) that can control multiple airports simultaneously or on in a sequence as per a pre-determined schedule. Remote tower systems consist of equipment at airports (radars, sensors, cameras, etc.), remote tower module, and a network system connecting the equipment at the airport with the remote tower module. The equipment typically includes components used for communication, information & control, flight data handling, surveillance, and visualization. _________________ 1.
