Abstract

The helicopter traffic over the North Sea is performed in uncontrolled airspace over international waters. The lack of radar coverage makes the establishment of controlled airspace difficult. The development of Automatic Dependent Surveillance (ADS) and use of satellite technology for Navigation, Communication and Surveillance (NCS) have made it possible to evaluate Modified Automatic Dependent Surveillance (M-ADS) as a basis for establishing controlled airspace over remote areas without radar coverage.
