ARC Technology Solutions was awarded a $1.1 Million contract from the Federal Aviation Administration for the supply of a new Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) Receiver module. The new Receiver will replace four legacy modules within the system, and provide improved operation and sustainability. ARC was selected for this effort based on our competitive pricing, our understanding of complex RF based devices, and our history of successful upgrade implementations across several radar platforms.

The TDWR is fielded at 47 of the Nation’s largest airports. The system provides increased safety measures and improved runway/airfield management through detection and display of microbursts, gust fronts, prediction of wind shifts, and precipitation. This system provides hazardous weather alerts in the terminal area and provides advanced notice of changing wind conditions to permit the timely redirection of air traffic flow.

Headquartered in Nashua, NH, ARC Technology Solutions is one of the nation’s leading providers of test and engineering solutions. ARC develops innovative test solutions using both of its proprietary high speed digital platforms and software applications as well as standard test and measurement equipment. ARC serves diverse industries including aerospace & defense, transportation, industrial automation and control, medical and telecommunications.
