Identification friend or foe. Identification, friend or foe ( IFF) is a combat identification system designed for command and control. It uses a transponder that listens for an interrogation signal and then sends a response that identifies the broadcaster. IFF systems usually use radar frequencies, but other electromagnetic frequencies, radio ...
A transponder (short for trans mitter-res ponder [1] and sometimes abbreviated to XPDR, [2] XPNDR, [3] TPDR [4] or TP [5]) is an electronic device that produces a response when it receives a radio-frequency interrogation. Aircraft have transponders to assist in identifying them on air traffic control radar. Collision avoidance systems have been ...

Conceptual of the ADS-B system, illustrating radio links between aircraft, ground station and satellite. Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast (ADS-B) is an aviation surveillance technology and form of electronic conspicuity in which an aircraft (or other airborne vehicles such as drones approved to fit "ADS-B Out") determines its position via satellite navigation or other sensors and ...
Airport Surface Surveillance Capability ( ASSC) is a runway -safety tool that displays aircraft and ground vehicles on the airport surface, as well as aircraft on approach and departure paths within a few miles of the airport. The tool allows air traffic controllers and air crew in cockpits equipped with Automatic Dependent Surveillance ...
In aviation, distance measuring equipment ( DME) is a radio navigation technology that measures the slant range (distance) between an aircraft and a ground station by timing the propagation delay of radio signals in the frequency band between 960 and 1215 megahertz (MHz). Line-of-visibility between the aircraft and ground station is required.
Victoria Cummock, whose 38-year-old husband, John, was on the flight, wants to ensure relatives have access to personal, remote access to the proceedings.
