Liquid cooled air traffic control over Greenland

12/14/2022

The R&S SK4105 high-power HF transmitter from Rohde & Schwarz combines high transmission power and reliability with a small footprint, making it ideal for air traffic control over large areas with harsh site conditions, such as Greenland.

In the summer of 2023, Rohde & Schwarz will be delivering low-maintenance and compact R&S SK4105 shortwave transmitters to Naviair, the Danish air navigation service provider that handles air traffic in the lower airspace from the Flight Information Center (FIC) in Greenland.

Greenland’s airspace is huge and transmitter stations are placed in remote locations. Naviair operates several HF and VHF radio systems at strategic points along the Greenlandic coast. The Flight Information Center (FIC) in Nuuk, Greenland, is responsible for primary communications. Its legacy HF transmitters will soon be replaced with the new, high power R&S SK4105 shortwave transmitters.
