Since 2001, Lima Airport Partners S.R.L (LAP) along with the Peruvian CAA (Civil Aviation Authority), have undertaken an extensive modernization and infrastructure expansion of the Jorge Chavez International Airport, located in the Nation’s capital Lima, Peru. Barrett Communications have been a critical component of the modernisation of the airport’s communications infrastructure. Barrett 4075 High power HF transmitters and receivers have been integrated into the complex communications infrastructure system. The installations are fully redundant internet protocol (IP) based split sites (separate transmit and receive sites).

HF communications are used by airports to communicate with aircraft in transoceanic flights as well as communications over distances beyond line of sight. Additional uses of HF system for airports include secure reliable communications of voice and data between other airports and first responders during emergencies. HF communication is the most reliable form of communication when typical infrastructure is compromised and continues to be used by many government organisations globally as the system of choice when all other systems have failed.
