Quantum Improvement in Airport Surface Surveillance

James L. Farrell

Abstract: The Airport Movement Area Safety System (AMASS) is devised to anticipate runway incursions, so that they can be prevented. This critically important function is planned to operate with inputs from triangulation and/or Airport Surface Detection Equipment (ASDE). Superior performance will clearly result from superior accuracy at the input followed by rigorous formation of closest approach time and distance for every possible pairing.
