Frequentis Aims to Reduce Digital Tower Footprint

Frequentis AG, a provider of air traffic management (ATM) solutions, is working to reduce the physical and digital footprint of its digital tower technology. The company is developing a more compact version aimed at increasing efficiency and achieving cost savings.

According to Frequentis, the long-term benefits lie in managing a network of airports from a single, centralized digital tower. This multi-remote tower center concept aims for more efficient resource utilization and consistent operational procedures.

The company discussed with ATM Magazine how the smaller footprint and enhanced efficiency of digital towers address current industry challenges. Rising energy prices are cited as a significant factor driving organizations to consider smaller, more energy-efficient setups.

Digital towers offer flexibility and enable the centralization and consolidation of air traffic control. Frequentis continues to advance technology designed to lower both environmental impact and operational costs within the aviation sector.
