Abstract

This paper presents the results obtained in the identification of the aircraft tail number by a non-cooperative surveillance system installed on the T4 apron of Adolfo-Suarez Madrid-Barajas Airport. The study focuses on the problems encountered by identifying the aircraft type Canadair Regional Jet through high resolution optical sensors whose response is affected by the shadow that, on sunny days, the engine produces over the tail number in this type of aircraft. The evaluation main objective is to quantify the probability of false identification produced by this phenomenon to determine the aircraft identification capacity of the Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control Systems deployed in the airport.
