ADS-B ground station having monopulse direction finding function

Abstract

The invention provides an ADS-B ground station having a monopulse direction finding function. The ADS-B ground station comprises four directional antennas, four radio frequency transceiver assemblies and a ground station host, wherein the four directional antennas are respectively arranged in four directions of 0 DEG, 90 DGE, 180 DEG and 270 DEG, the four radio frequency transceiver assemblies are used for receiving radio frequency signals inducted by the directional antennas and sending the received signals to the ground station host, the ground station host is used for selecting the first strongest one and the second strongest one of the four paths of radio frequency signals to carry out differential calculation to acquire the angle information of sending parties of the radio frequency signals; if the radio frequency signals are response signals of A / C mode query signals, the distance information of the sending parties of the radio frequency signals are acquired according to the sending time of the A / C mode query signals and the reception time of the response signals; and the angle information and the distance information are integrated to generate the monitoring information. According to the ADS-B ground station, a signal amplitude comparison method is utilized to accomplish direction finding of an aircraft, distance finding is accomplished according to the receiving / sending signal time difference, and thereby positioning of the aircraft is accomplished.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an air traffic control monitoring technology for ensuring aircraft flight safety, belongs to the field of aviation technology, and particularly relates to an ADS-B ground station with a single pulse direction finding function. Background technique [0002] Traditional ADS-B (1090MHz) ground stations rely on the intermittent broadcast of ADS-B OUT to monitor aircraft. If the aircraft is not equipped with ADS-B OUT equipment or the data of the on-board positioning system is abnormal, the ADS-B ground station will not be able to complete The positioning of the aircraft or the occurrence of wrong aircraft position information will affect flight safety. Contents of the invention [0003] The invention purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of ADS-B ground station with monopulse direction finding function, utilize signal amplitude ratio method to complete the direction finding to aircraft, complete ranging according ...
