  1. MP-TCAS-Mobile Phone Traffic Collision Avoidance System Team Members: Guy Kahlon CITIBANK Guy Banay KODAK Gabi Ofir MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS Haim Kahlon MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS Shahar Fattal MARVELL Weekathon - 2015

  2. TCAS- Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems • The solution based on Mobile Phone (MP) sensors only (Pressure sensor, Gravity sensor and the GPS module). • The sensor fusion concept can be applied on all the following domains: • Automotive • Aviation • Shipping • Drones • For this Weekathon trial, we have focused on applying the concept on a aviation domain. Specially for the General Aviation and the light sport aircrafts categories.

  3. TCAS - System Overview Interrogation Transponder Response Transponder Position Identification • The typical TCAS system is based on: • Transmitting signal and measuring the round trip time (RADAR). • Decoding the Aircraft Transponder signals.

  4. Traffic Advisories Resolution Advisories • When a TA is issued: Pilots are instructed to initiate a visual search for the traffic causing the TA. If the traffic is visually acquired, pilots are instructed to maintain visual separation from the traffic. • When an RA is issued, pilots are expected to respond immediately to the RA, unless doing so would jeopardize the safe operation of the flight.

  5. Facts on present TCAS System • Situational and air traffic awareness. • Warning and advisory system. • Mandatory for the Airline category aircrafts • Cost between $25,000-$150,000 • Not affordable for most of the General Aviation (GA) and light sport Category aircrafts.

  6. Our Solutions– Mobile Phone Based-TCAS System • Implemented on a Mobile Phone. • Utilizing the common sensors comprised in the Mobile Phone, including the GPS module. • The Data exchange based on : • Cloud service (Cellular 3G/4G). • Ad-Hoc Communication System. • Integration of the two above.

  7. MP-TCAS System Ad-Hoc Based Ad-Hoc Based Communication Cloud Sensor Data exchange such as: speed. Altitude. Position Course User Data Exchange such as: Call sign Aircraft Type. Traffic Frequency Channel .

  8. MP-TCAS System Cloud Server Based Aircraft to Server Data: Aircraft to Server Data: Call sign Aircraft type Altitude Position Course Destination Traffic clearance zone Call sign Aircraft type Altitude Position Course Destination Traffic clearance zone Cloud Server Server to Aircraft Data: All Aircraft in Traffic clearance zone Cloud Server: • Holds database of all Aircrafts in the zone. • Call sign, Aircraft type, Altitude, Position, Course… • Sends all the traffic info inside the clearance zone. • In future - “Waze Like” application for aviation traffic.

  9. MP-TCAS Solution Advantages • Mobile Phone application. • Affordable • Available to everyone. • No need of Transponders or any other equipment. • Most of LSA- Light Sport Aircraft are not equipped with Transponders. • 360 degrees intruder alert and advisory. • Potentially “Waze Like” application for aviation domain. Transponder

  10. Yesterday, after 3 day of development only, we have visited at the customer’s site - Hertzeliya Airfield (LLHZ), the center of the General Aviation activity in Israel. Lets see the results: https://youtu.be/jUzUYujqPzs
