Abstract
Present day radar trackers used for air traffic control purposes perform satisfactorily during straight-line flight, but their performance during maneuvers is sometimes degraded. The introduction of the secondary surveillance radar mode S system makes transmission of several airborne measurements to the ground station possible. This paper investigates the use of one such parameter, roll angle, to assist present trackers during maneuvers to achieve accuracies comparable to those achieved during straightline ine flight.Keywords
