Abstract: A airport runway warning system disposes a number of warning lanterns parallel to the runway by the two sides of the runway. Also, every warning lantern is at least connected to one empty sensor, to sense the nearby runway zone. All the warning lanterns and sensors are connected to a central controlling unit, disposed on the airport control tower. The central controlling unit, furthermore, connects to the main displaying light in the entrance of every communication path. By the operation in coordination via every warning lantern, sensor, central controlling unit and main displaying light, additional runway real-time information can be provided to the pilot and the people in the control tower. Particularly, the obstacles appearing on the runway abruptly can also be warned immediately.
