It broadcasts GPS position (latitude, longitude), pressure altitude, callsign, as well as track and ground speed. I/Q Raw Recording Download file Audio Sample Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is used by aircraft as an alternative to secondary radar. It broadcasts GPS position (latitude, longitude), pressure altitude, callsign, as well as track and ground speed separated into messages carrying 10 bytes of data each. ADS-B uses PPMPulse Position Modulation to transmit data. one that transmits at 1090 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz using the mode-S extended squitter (downlink format 17) of the SSR transponder, with about 2 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz of bandwidth; (Worldwide) one that transmits at 978 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz (UAT, Universal Access Transceiver), using a larger bandwidth of about 1.3 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz and also transmitting weather data.

Virtual Radar Server Decodes from several ADS-B receivers or can accept networked data feed. Serves a Google Maps-based display of aircraft positions and flight list. (Free) (Windows) ADS-B is vertically polarized. High gain antennas such as collinear antennas with gain directed towards the horizon tend to work well. Other antennas like 1/4 wave ground planes and J-Poles also work well. Edit&action=edit "You can edit this page. Please use the preview button before saving [e]")
