updated/ Verified Answers/
Graded A+
What type of surveillance is regarded Non-cooperative,
independent surveillance? - -PSR radar
-What surveillance technique is ADS-B? - -Cooperative,
dependent surveillance
-What is an example of Cooperative, Independent surveillance? -
-SSR radar
-How is an aircraft detected by the PSR? - -By reflected
electromagnetic energy transmitted from the radar
-What is radar clutter on an ATM radar? - -Unwanted targets
-What is a limitation to the PSR radar? - -No identification of
received echoes
-What is meant by PRI? - -Pulse repetition interval
-What is the purpose of the duplexer? - -To alternately switch the
antenna between receiving and transmitting
-What is the operating principle of the aircraft transponder? - -To
code a reply on the 1090MHz frequency in response to a SSR
radar interrogation
-What is transmitted on a Mode C reply from a transponder? - -
Pressure altitude
-What is it called when replies from 2 aircraft overlap causing
errors in extracting the included data? - -Garbling
, -What is a disadvantage of the classical SSR radar? - -Garbling
can occur if 2 aircraft are close in slant range and on the same
bearing
-What is a feature of Mode S? - -Selective interrogations to
reduce FRUIT
-What is provided with Mode S enhanced surveillance? - -
Downlinked aircraft parameters
-What is a feature of the Monopulse SSR radar? - -Improved
azimuth resolution and fewer pulses needed to determine position
-ADS (automatic dependent surveillance) is a surveillance
technique for use by ATS in which: - -Aircraft automatically
provide, via data link, data from on-board navigation systems
-What is a feature of ADS-B? - -High update rate and simple,
omnidirectional receivers
-Which airborne equipment supports the 1090ES messages? - -
The Mode S transponder
-What is the dominant ADS-B data link technology in Europe? - -
1090 extended squitter
-What is the purpose of Mode S Short squitter? - -ACAS/TCAS
interrogations
-What is variation? - -The difference between true and magnetic
north
-What is meant by instrument flight rules? - -Flying by reference
to instruments in the flight deck, and navigation is accomplished
by reference to electronic signals
-What is the most common geodetic reference system with global
coverage? - -WGS 84
