Sanchar Runway Lighting System

SANCHAR Intelligent ground lighting systems can be used to increase operational efficiency and safety for Permanent, temporary and emergency runway strips. Our wireless deployed runway lights requires no electrical infrastructure. This translates to ease of use and lower installation and maintenance costs.

The RF based Runway lighting system help guide Aeroplanes using the runways and taxiways 24*7 wirelessly through any weather conditions. The Sanchar Digital Runway Lighting System (SRLS) is a wireless communication platform which operates by broadcasting signals from the Sanchar Control Digital Transmitter (SCDT) to the Sanchar Digital Receiver (SDR) lights in the system via an encrypted network.

SRLS 01-01.

Features:

  • The controller use digitally encrypted codes to illuminate variably coloured lights as per requirement.

  • Pre-set configurable modes which simulate different events at a landing strip like aircraft take-off oraircraft landing and adjust zonal lighting accordingly.

  • Luminosity intensity at high, medium, low for each colour LED light in the zone can be configured by theSCDT.

  • Password protection on the SCDT to avoid misuse or incorrect data input.

  • There is a Master kill switch to hide the landing strip from surroundings in an emergency situation

  • Light groups are used to cluster lights in a particular zone such as a taxiway so that they can becontrolled independently from other light groups such as a runway shoulder.

Advantages

  • Easy line replaceable unit low down time.

  • All SDR units function independently-one unit down does not affect other units’ performance.

  • Portable design increases mobility facilitating quick transit.

  • Robust design which can withstand shocks and vibrations.

  • Use of industrial grade elements makes it a maintenance free system.

Models

  • SRLS-01: The SCDT control panel will control lighting using an RF communication system. The SDR receiver has an integrated battery and solar charging system with all night backup so that the user does not have to replace the portable units after every use. The SDR can be controlled to illuminate any light remotely.

  • SRLS-02: The SCDT control panel will control lighting using an RF communication system. The SDR receiver has an integrated battery which is chargeable by AC mains power. The SDR can be controlled to illuminate any light remotely.

  • SRLS-03: The SDR portable unit has multi coloured lights. That have to be individually controlled.

The System Consists of The Following Elements

  • SCDT: Feeds the signal to a transmitting antenna by first encoding the data into RF waves (signals) to  project the signal to the Sanchar Digital Receiver (SDR). The data communication can be configured on any license free/allotted licensed band. This unit will normally be installed in a control tower or Airforce Control Master’s room. The output of the transmitter shall be connected through suitable RF cable to the mounted antenna or on a mast at a suitable height to get adequate coverage in the entire section. The SCDT broadcasts a command message to all SDR lights deployed in the airfield space.

  • SDR: Accepts and decodes the RF signals that come through the receiving antenna and rejects unwanted ones via the use of a filter. This unit can be placed in the field at either ends or along the runway or the taxi zone.
