  • !E3 (2£)CH3 0 © P°1 Radar Beacon Transponders Provide Possible Solution
    BETTER BALLOON TRACKING: Radar Beacon Transponders Provide Possible Solution The Federal Aviation Agency’s recently announced E plans that include adoption of the radar beacon system "c3 as the backbone of its in-flight air traffic control in the U.S. may provide the means for better tracking of balloons as well. As part of its program to increase the safety of scientific balloon operations, the National Center for Atmospheric Research during the next seve­ ral months will make a number of flight tests with a balloon-borne beacon transponder to investigate the effectiveness of the radar beacon system for ballooning. TO USE COMMERCIAL UNIT The transponder to be used in NCAR’s tests is the General Aviation Transponder (GAT), a ten-pound unit developed by the Wilcox Electric Co. and the TD> KJ Hazeltine Corp. under FAA sponsorship. The unit will lie repackaged in a pressure vessel to permit operation at balloon altitudes. Secondary Surveillance Radar is the name used for the air traffic control radar beacon system. If the NCAR tests demonstrate the feasibility of using the system in balloon tracking, the FAA will then have its own !E 3 balloon tracking capability. In terms of accuracy, lag time, and range of coverage, this capability contrasts □ L sharply with the limitations of present methods of track­ ing balloons with radio direction finding equipment, (2£)CH 3 E or, very rarely, with primary radar. la 0 © P°1 RADIO DIRECTION FINDING METHODS Most balloon tracking is done by aircraft equipped with direction finding equipment. In this system, the tracking airplane flies below the balloon, circles, and NATIONAL CENTER FOR obtains null signals from a transmitter carried by the ATMOSPHERIC RESEARCH balloon.

Chisholm Sierra Nevada Corporation Reno, Nevada SUMMARY A novel, airborne, radar-based, precision approach concept is being developed and flight tested as a part of NASA's Rotorcraft All-Weather Operations Research Program. A transponder-based beacon landing system (BLS) applying state-of-the-art X-band radar technology and digital processing techniques, has been built and is being flight tested to demonstrate the concept feasibility. The BLS airborne hardware consists of an add-on mic roprocessor, install ed in conjuncti on with the aircraft weather/mappi ng radar, whi ch ana lyzes the radar beacon receiver returns and determines range, localizer deviation, and glide-slope deviation. The ground station is an inexpensive, portable unit which can be quickly deployed at a landing site.

  • Assessing Wide Area Multilateration and ADS-B As Alternative Surveillance Technology
    Assessing Wide Area Multilateration and ADS-B as Alternative Surveillance Technology Anastasios C. Daskalakis and Patrick J. Martone US DOT Volpe Center, Cambridge, MA, 02142 Charles M. Buntin Federal Aviation Administration, Washington, D.C., 20591 Abstract The Helicopter In-Flight Tracking System (HITS) program evaluated both Wide Area Multilateration (WAM) and Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) as alternative surveillance technologies for both the terminal and en route domains in the Gulf of Mexico against the FAA’s secondary radar. From 2001 to 2003, a network of ground stations, provided by the Sensis Corporation, was implemented to provide and demonstrate terminal services at Intracoastal City, LA. Flight tests were conducted using aircraft from both NASA Ames Research Center and the FAA Technical Center evaluating the performance of WAM and ADS-B against FAA secondary radar. In 2004, a network of ground stations were implemented from Galveston, TX to Pinellas Park, FL as well as the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico to demonstrate seamless high altitude surveillance coverage within the US Flight Information Region (FIR) for aircraft at FL 280 and above using ADS-B. WAM for high altitude aircraft in the en route area was demonstrated for areas that had coverage from three or more ground stations. The flight tests were completed in March 2004. Finally, a proof of concept activity was conducted at the FAA Technical Center demonstrating the ability to process and display ADS-B targets on the Host Computer System. This proof of concept demonstrated the capability to convert Asterix Cat 10 surveillance data from both ADS-B and WAM derived targets to existing Common Digitizer –2 data format to interface with the Host Computer System, the automation platform currently utilized at Houston Center.
