Abstract

Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is one in all the favoured technologies employed in air traffic surveillance. The ADS- B uses a band of 1090 MHz. ADS-B is attended with the prevailing radar-based technologies to locate aircraft. The Next Generation Air Transportation System (NGATS) conflicts can be detected and resolved by the coexistence of radar systems and ADS-B. Here we tend to track the aircraft using Software Defined Radio, hence the complexness and the value of ADS-B system implementation is drastically reduced. SDR can receive multiple numbers of aircraft information like altitude, latitude, longitude, speed, and direction in real-time and displayed by using an appropriate antenna. The usage of SDR maximizes the coverage of data with accuracy and may accomplish timely.
