This Traffic Control and Landing Systems (TRACALS) radar station evaluation report presents data to define the capabilities and limitations of the ground controlled approach (GCA) facility at Aviano AB, Italy. The GCA is comprised of an AN/MPN-13C airport surveillance radar (ASR) and precision approach radar (PAR) system, the AN/TPX-42A(V) type 1 air traffic control radar beacon system (ATCRBS), and the associated power systems. This report includes a description of useable ASR coverage, a description of the ATCRBS coverage and tracking capabilities, a description of PAR coverage and tracking capabilities, and the analysis of flight and equipment performance data. The capabilities and limitations presented are a guide for expected system performance until there is a modification to or relocation of the equipment or until a significant change occurs in the horizontal profile.
