Described is a radar system (1) for controlling air traffic close to an airport zone (Z), comprising an infrastructure (10) for transmission in low terrestrial orbit configured for transmitting electromagnetic reference signals (R) towards said airport zone (Z) in such a way as to intercept at least one aircraft (A) close to said airport zone (Z) generating echo signals (E) and a receiving infrastructure (20) operatively positioned close to the airport zone (Z) and configured for intercepting and sampling the echo signals (E). The system also comprises a synchronisation infrastructure (30), operatively positioned close to the airport zone (Z) and configured for establishing a sampling period between the receiving infrastructure (20) and the transmission infrastructure (10) as well as a control unit (U) connected to the receiving infrastructure (20) and to the synchronisation infrastructure (30) and configured to receive and process the echo signals (E) and to generate a positioning mapping of the at least one aircraft (A) as a function of the sampling period.
