2. Portable collision avoidance system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_collision...

   A portable collision avoidance system (PCAS) is an aircraft collision avoidance system similar in function to traffic collision avoidance system (TCAS). TCAS is the industry standard for commercial collision avoidance systems but PCAS is gaining recognition as an effective means of collision avoidance for general aviation and is in use the world over by independent pilots in personally owned ...

3. Air traffic control radar beacon system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_traffic_control_radar...

   The air traffic control radar beacon system ( ATCRBS) is a system used in air traffic control (ATC) to enhance surveillance radar monitoring and separation of air traffic. It consists of a rotating ground antenna and transponders in aircraft. The ground antenna sweeps a narrow vertical beam of microwaves around the airspace.

4. Transponder (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transponder_(aeronautics)

   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 ...

5. Airborne collision avoidance system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airborne_collision...

   a Portable Collision Avoidance System (PCAS) is a less expensive, passive version of TCAS designed for general aviation use. PCAS systems do not actively interrogate the transponders of other aircraft, but listen passively to responses from other interrogations. PCAS is subject to the same limitations as TCAS, although the cost for PCAS is ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_information_service...

   Traffic information service – broadcast. Traffic information service – broadcast ( TIS–B) is an aviation information service that allows pilots to see aircraft that are not emitting ADS-B data but have a basic transponder . As aircraft are discovered by primary radar and respond with encoded altitude information, this information is ...

8. Transponder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transponder

   Transponder. In telecommunications, a transponder is a device that, upon receiving a signal, emits a different signal in response. [1] The term is a blend of transmitter and responder. [2] [3] In air navigation or radio frequency identification, a flight transponder is an automated transceiver in an aircraft that emits a coded identifying ...
