Vigilance™ - wide area multilateration system
Vigilance™ provides the greatest accuracy of any multilateration system, and has safely and reliably provided continuous multilateration cover in the busiest skies in the world for more than 13 years.
The unchallenged performance of the Vigilance™ multilateration system is based upon our patented time synchronisation technology which allows you to track aircraft to within 5 metres. The Vigilance™ multilateration solution is a cost effective one too - requiring the lowest number of monitoring sites compared to other multilateration systems.
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
| Satellite synchronisation | Better than 5 metres accuracy |
| Line of Sight synchronisation not required | Opens up more siting options - higher accuracy/cost reductions |
| Monitor sites better placed - fewer sites required/higher accuracy | |
| Advanced architecture | Fewer monitor sites required - lower installation and operating costs |
| Scalable, with reduced costs as coverage increases | |
| Deployment tool | Accuracy of system known prior to deployment |
| Cost escalations avoided | |
| COTS technology | Low capital outlay |
| Lower through-life costs | |
| Continuity of supply | |
| Low power consumption | Lower installation and operational costs |
| Small form factor | Easier installation |
Deployment
Vigilance™ not only outperforms other multilateration systems - it is also supported by the best deployment planning tool of any multilateration supplier.
Site deployment
Our planning tool, by modelling the potential site locations and effects of terrain, can calculate how many sites are required, and where, and with what accuracy. This greatly reduces the risk and costs for you - as the need to add further sites to the system is eliminated.
