Description

The AZIMUT AMI 2700 is an S-band (2.7–2.9 GHz) air traffic control (ATC) radar designed for high-traffic airports, capable of detecting and determining aircraft coordinates within an instrumented range of 86 nautical miles (160 km). It features a built-in weather channel and utilizes frequency diversity, complemented by a Mode S-capable secondary radar. The system employs a 5.39 × 3.09 m parabolic antenna with a cosecant-squared elevation pattern from 0.5 to 45 degrees, achieved by a dual-horn feed. Meeting the latest ICAO and EUROCONTROL requirements, the AMI 2700 communicates with air traffic control centers via ASTERIX protocol categories 8 (weather) and 48 (aircraft position) over fiber optic or copper cable, boasting a mean time between critical failures (MTBCF) of 100,000 hours and a mean time to repair (MTTR) of 30 minutes.
