Abstract GPS-Squitter is a system concept that merges the capabilities of Automatic Dependent Surveillance (ADS) and the Mode S beacon radar. The result is an integrated concept for seamless surveillance and data link that permits equipped aircraft to participate in ADS andlor beacon ground environments, offering many possibilities for transition from a beacon to an ADS-based environment. Since GPS-Squitter and its associated data ,link share the 1030/1090-MHz beacon frequencies with other users (e.g., ground beacon radars and TCAS), th ere is some level of interaction between the operation of these various systems. One form of interaction is the effect on GPS-Squitter operation caused by the activities of other users. This effect, plus the effect of self-interference of GPS-Squitter operation, determines the operational capacity of GPS-Squitter. The complementary process is the effect of the GPS-Squitter operation on the other users of the beacon frequencies. This report provides an analysis of the interference to other users of the 1030/1090-MHz beacon frequencies caused by GPS-Squitter operation. The principal interference effect is channel occupancy on the beacon frequencies that prevents the reception of a desired signal by a receiver. The basis for the analysis is to estimate the channel occupancy on the beacon frequencies and its effect on the operation of victim receivers on those frequencies. The analysis is performed separately for the two frequencies. The analysis of 1030-MHz interference estimates the effect of the 1030-MHz data link activity that may be associated with GPS-Squitter (such as differential correction broadcast and two-way data link) on the operation of a transponder receiver. The 1090-MHz analysis estimates similar interference effects on (1) a terminal or en route sensor receiver and (2) a TCAS receiver. The results indicate that the operation of GPS-Squitter and its assoeiated data link will have a negligible effect on the other users of these frequencies.

Aircraft Surveillance Based on GPS Position Broadcasts from Mode S Beacon Transponders

Flight testing of a new air surveillance concept, GPS-Squitter, began during the past year. It integrates GPS receivers with the existing secondary surveillance radar beacon equipment carried by most aircraft. Simple, inexpensive, non-scanning ground stations listen for GPS position reports broadcast by the Mode S beacon transponders on the aircraft and send them on to air traffic control facil...

A Testbed for Studying Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) Based Range and Positioning Performance to Support Alternative Position Navigation and Timing (APNT)

As air traffic continues to grow, the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) plays an increasingly important role in enabling the air space to efficiently handle the increase load. In fact, it will be the primary and often the only system capable of supporting key capabilities for the future airspace. However, GNSS is vulnerable to radio frequency interference (RFI) and spoofing, so an alter...

Interference Mitigation of Replay Attacks in GPS Receiver using of Finite Impulse Response Filter

The vulnerability of civil GPS receiver to interference may be intentional or unintentional. Among all types of interference, replay attack intended as the most dangerous intentional one. The signal structure of replay attack is almost the same with the satellite signal. The interference effects can be reduce with the design of an appropriate filter in the receiver. This paper presents two meth...

A Novel Interference Rejection Method for GPS Receivers

This paper proposes a new method for rejecting the Continuous Wave Interferences (CWI) in the Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers. The proposed filter is made by cascading an adaptive Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter and a Wavelet Packet Transform (WPT) based filter. Although adaptive FIR filters are easy to implement and have a linear phase, they create self-noise in the rejection of...
