Uses
RELIANCE Intelligent Lighting provides distributed intelligence in the airfield to control and monitor a variety of airfield
lighting devices. It can be used in the following applications:
•
Key component of (Advanced-) Surface Movement Guidance Control Systems: (A-)SMGCS
•
Stop bar control and monitoring: taxiway routing support.
•
Elevated and in-pavement Runway Guard Light (RGL) control and monitoring, CAT II/III monitoring support.
•
Failed-lamp detection and location identification.
•
Interface with aircraft/vehicle presence sensors (option).
•
Selective control and monitoring of various airfield lighting devices.
The system provides relevant information concerning the status of connected airfield lighting devices to both airport
maintenance and air traffic control personnel.
Furthermore RELIANCE Intelligent Lighting:
•
Supports the optimization of traffic volume, flexibility, maintainability and airside safety.
•
Ensures reliable guidance for aircraft on the ground during CAT I, II or III conditions, increasing safety and reducing the
risk of runway incursions.
•
Automatically detects and reports lamp failures, decreasing downtime and maintenance costs.
Customer Benefits
•
Faster, predictable and more robust power line carrier communication method ensures highest reliability even for long
airfield circuits that contain large number of lamps.
•
Increased number of slots per day as a result of higher traffic throughput and better control of ground traffic movements.
•
Flexible routing functionality and safe operation under all traffic and environmental conditions resulting in reduced ATC
workload.
•
Precise control of each segment of runways, taxiways, and stop bar lighting.
•
Adjacent lamp failure reporting.
•
Most economic solution for modernization projects through power line communication on existing circuits.
•
Easy future upgrade of installed RELIANCE Intelligent Lighting systems.
•
A step-by-step migration strategy can then be implemented.
•
Optimized planning of runway and taxiway maintenance downtimes.
•
Worldwide availability of our regional Technical Service staff for technical support and site services on short notice.
RELIANCE Intelligent Lighting Platform II Technology
•
Communicates using a radio frequency signal imposed on the high- voltage airfield series circuit cable - no separate
communication cable needed.
•
Communication quality is automatically optimized for each series circuit in a permanent background process.
•
New communication principle together with forward error correction drastically reduces signal disturbance caused by
impulse and narrow band interferences.
•
Main system elements: RELIANCE IL Master (in the substation), RELIANCE IL Remotes (for individual control and
monitoring of lights in the field). In addition, RELIANCE IL Utility Remote for communication with and energy supply for
local field sensors.
