In this paper, the passive localization and tracking of aircrafts sending Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B)/Mode-S transponder signals is investigated. A sensor network taking Time (Difference) of Arrival (TOA/TDOA) measurements is considered. TDOA/TOA-based geolocation is used along with a Kalman filter to localize and track air-crafts. Experimental results show the feasibility to...
In this paper a multi target Doppler-only tracking scheme as well as its related algorithms are proposed and analyzed. Specifically the Doppler-only single target localization is firstly addressed in an heteroscedastic environment exploiting a weighted least square approach. Then this approach is extended to a multi target case introducing an algorithm to solve the inherent measurements to targets...
The use of new Air Traffic Management (ATM) concepts built upon the capabilities afforded by the Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) system in NextGen airspace aims to provide substantial improvements in system capacity and throughput without compromising safety relative to today's ground-directed ATM based on Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR). These concepts rely on airborne based...
Radar data collected from three different monopulse secondary surveillance radar (MSSR) types are analyzed to assess azimuth measurement error characteristics. Aircraft radar position reports are compared with Global Positioning System (GPS) position reports delivered by Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) for aircraft targets of opportunity. ADS-B positions are regarded as truth for...
