SeRo Systems Secures Significant EUROCONTROL Contract
Introduction
SeRo Systems, a frontrunner in air traffic surveillance and monitoring solutions, has recently announced a pivotal achievement. The company was awarded a contract by EUROCONTROL to deliver its next-generation GRX receivers designed specifically for Monitoring RF (Radio Frequency). This groundbreaking development is set to enhance air traffic monitoring capabilities across Europe, strengthening safety measures and operational efficiency in air navigation services.
Details of the Contract
The contract follows a competitive bidding process where SeRo was selected to provide 120 advanced GRX single- and multi-band receivers. The first batch of these state-of-the-art receivers was successfully delivered in January and April of 2026, with the final shipment scheduled for June. These GRX receivers will significantly boost EUROCONTROL’s existing surveillance network, providing enhanced insights into critical surveillance frequencies and facilitating comprehensive monitoring of air traffic.
Advancements in Technology
The newly designed GRX receivers support L-band spectrum analysis and feature advanced capabilities tailored for monitoring 1030/1090 MHz frequency bands. This will not only extend EUROCONTROL's reach throughout Europe but will also improve signal reception and analysis performance, essential for a region with increasing frequency congestion in air traffic. In response to global air traffic dynamics, SeRo’s innovative solutions aim to afford Aviation Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) and regulators with the vital data needed to navigate complex and congested environments effectively.
Commitment to Safety and Security
Dr. Matthias Schäfer, CEO of SeRo Systems, expressed pride in continuing their partnership with EUROCONTROL, emphasizing the importance of their work in ensuring air traffic safety. He stated, “Continued frequency congestion and anomalies in air traffic surveillance systems are driving demand for RF monitoring systems that operate reliably in challenging conditions.” SeRo’s technology assists in observing, analyzing, and responding to GPS jamming and spoofing incidents, thus bolstering safety measures within European airspace.
Expanding the Horizon
This contract not only signifies a continued collaboration with EUROCONTROL but also integrates Seamless Monitoring capabilities into the existing EMIT platform. Currently, EMIT processes up to 5 billion signals each day, while the EUROCONTROL Simulator of Surveillance Interrogators and Transponders (ESIT) project enhances transponder load prediction and analysis for efficient airspace planning. With these partnerships and technological advancements, air navigation throughout Europe is set to reach new heights in terms of reliability and safety.
