A evolução das tecnologias por trás do serviço ATC

Abstract

The infrastructure and resources used in the air sector play a very important role within the air control service, and its updating is of paramount importance to keep up with the dynamics of the air sector, from the beginning of aviation to the present day. Brazil has a high density of air traffic, and throughout its history has had several updates to its equipment structure. The present work investigated the evolution of the technologies behind the ATC service in Brazil, describing the historicity of the ATC equipment and service, and pointing out the equipment that is currently used in the service, to point out the impact that the new resources have on the capacity of control of air traffic. Using the deductive method, it was observed that Brazil has been updating and improving its infrastructure behind the ATC service, gradually implementing new equipment over the years, providing influence on the ATC capacity in a way that makes it broader and safer.
