Abstract(in English) When an aircraft flies, two vortexes called wake turbulence occur from each wing tip. If another aircraft enters into these vortexes, it could crash in the worst case scenario. For the safety of the succeeding aircraft, ATC procedures concerning wake turbulence regulates the separation between the leading aircraft and succeeding aircraft. Unfortunately, with this procedures, takeoff waiting time is longer than without. If wake turbulence can be reliably detected, takeoff separation time can be shortened while maintaining safety, in addition, airport capacity can be increased. ENRI developed a laser wake turbulence detection system. At Sendai Airport, we are observing the wake turbulence of aircraft as they take off.
