ADS-B Solutions ADS-B - Satellite-based Surveillance Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) is the new surveillance technology in which an aircraft periodically broadcasts its GPS satellite position, enabling it to be tracked. ADS-B signals can be transmitted on either of two different frequencies in the U.S., 1090MHz and 978MHz. Any aircraft flying above 18,000 feet in the US airspace must have a 1090MHz ADS-B OUT solution. Aircraft certified to fly below 18,000 feet can use a 1090MHz or 978MHz ADS-B OUT solution. Outside the US, only 1090MHz is used for ADS-B. ADS-B also requires a precision GPS position source. In the U.S., a certified WAAS-capable GPS is needed to meet this requirement. The AXP340 transponder is a panel-mounted Class 1 Mode S Level 2 Datalink Transponder with support for 1090MHz Extended Squitter (ES), that meets all the current requirements for Mode S elementary surveillance transponders for both IFR and VFR flight. As a slide-in replacement for existing KT76A/KT78A transponders, the AXP340 is designed to easily upgrade existing Mode A/C equipment to Mode S, while adding additional functionality like a Direct-entry Numeric Keypad, Pressure Altitude & GPS Lat/Lon readout, Flight ID entry, one-touch VFR code entry, an easy-to-use Stop Watch Timer, Flight Timer, and Altitude Alerter. AXP322 - Remote-mounted Mode S Transponder The AXP322 transponder is a remote-mounted Class 1 Mode S Level 2 Datalink Transponder with support for 1090MHz Extended Squitter (ES), that meets all the current requirements for Mode S elementary surveillance transponders for both IFR and VFR flight. It is designed to be controlled using an Avidyne IFD540 or IFD440 GPS/NAV/COM, and is ideally suited for installations where panel space is limited. SkyTrax 978MHz ADS-B Receiver Using the 978MHz datalink frequency band, Avidyne’s SkyTrax100 Receiver provides Flight Information System-Broadcast (FIS-B) weather information, including NEXRAD radar, METARs,TAFs, AIRMETs, SIGMETs, Special Use Airspace (SUA), and Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs). The SkyTrax100 also receives traffic information directly from nearby 978MHz-equipped aircraft, and indirectly through the rebroadcast of 1090MHz-equipped aircraft via 978MHz ADS-R. Traffic information from aircraft not participating in ADS-B is received from ground stations via 978MHz TIS-B transmissions (Traffic Information Service-Broadcast). TAS-A - Ultimate Safety of Traffic via Active Surveillance & ADS-B IN affordable and lightweight Skytrax ADS-B solutions for fixed- AXP340 - Panel-mounted Mode S Transponder AXP340 Avidyne provides Avidyne also offers the TAS-A series of Traffic Advisory Systems, which actively interrogate nearby aircraft and also receive 1090MHz ADS-B IN, providing optimal safety, especially when flying in a mixed-equippage airspace environment or outside the Continental US. www.avidyne.com Flying Made Simple™ wing and rotary aircraft operators around t
