Design of monitoring and controlling system for airfield lighting based on computer

The airport airfield lighting system is very important to approach and land safely, however the environments for the airfield lighting are usually rough and wide, posing great difficulties to inspection and maintaining. Therefore the online monitoring and control to the lighting system through computer technology and network technology is imperative. The paper presents the composition method of the system, gives the design scheme of the software, hard ware and man-machine interface and some solutions of actual problems in the development and application.
