This paper presents the SEEDS simulation environment for the evaluation of distributed traffic control systems. The description starts with a general overview of the simulator, targeted for airport surface traffic simulation, and then focuses on the sensor models implemented in the prototype. The surveillance function foreseen in a real Advanced Surface Movement Guidance and Control Systems (A-SMGCS) has been studied and modeled; suitable set of sensors and signal processing algorithms have

The paper shows the sensor module architecture, how the sensors have been modeled and how the software module has been implemented and integrated in the core simulator. The interactions with the other modules of the simulator and the exchanged messages are also described.
