摘要： Systems and methods that allow for distance-measuring equipment (DME) to use either a lower or an upper fuselage-mounted antenna. An exemplary system located on an aircraft includes an aircraft configuration data source that generates aircraft configuration information, an aircraft orientation data source that generates aircraft orientation information, a positioning system that generates aircraft position information and a component that provides DME ground station position information. The system also includes a first antenna, a second antenna and a processing device that determines if a DME signal communication issue exists with the first antenna that is based on the generated aircraft position information, the DME ground station position information and at least one of the configuration or orientation information. The processing device switches DME signal communication to the second antenna if a DME signal communication issue has been determined to exist.

摘要： The present invention provides a method for efficient use of the transmit power of a Traffic Alert Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) that allows enhanced surveillance range and limits radio frequency (RF) interference in crowded airspace. The method reduces power density in crowded airspace by modifying Mode S, Mode A and Mode C interrogations. During Mode S broadcasts, tracking interrogation power is reduced as a function of range. Further transmit power reduction is achieved by broadcasting a variable power density whisper-shout interrogation technique for Mode A/C aircraft when garbling is detected. If garbling is observed during a medium whisper-shout interrogation sequence, the method of the present invention attempts to clear the garbling by using focused high-density whisper-shout steps but only in the ranges where garbling was detected. Formation members can account for other formation members that are TCAS equipped using a special E-TCAS Broadcast Interrogation. The presence of other E-TCAS will be used in the RF interference limiting calculations. Aircraft flying in formation further minimize broadcast power by sharing information between the formation leader and formation aircraft.
摘要翻译：本发明提供了一种有效利用交通警报冲突避免系统（TCAS）的发射功率的方法，其允许增强的监视范围并限制拥挤的空域中的射频（RF）干扰。该方法通过修改模式S，模式A和模式C询问来降低拥挤空域的功率密度。在模式S广播期间，跟踪询问功率作为范围的函数减小。当检测到乱码时，通过广播用于模式A / C飞机的可变功率密度耳语询问技术来实现进一步的发射功率降低。如果在中等耳语询问序列期间观察到乱码，则本发明的方法尝试通过使用聚焦的高密度耳语步骤来清除乱码，但是仅在检测到乱码的范围内。组成员可以考虑使用特殊的E-TCAS广播讯问装备TCAS的其他组织成员。其他E-TCAS的存在将用于RF干扰限制计算。飞机飞行通过在地层导弹和地面飞机之间共享信息进一步最小化广播能力。

摘要： Systems and methods for improving the presentation of wake turbulence information. A processor located on an ownship receives position, heading and type information of another aircraft and position and heading information of the ownship. The processor determines if a possible wake condition exists from the other aircraft based on at least a portion of the received information and at least one predefined threshold and generates a wake icon if a wake condition is determined to exist. The wake condition exists when the ownship's altitude is below a first threshold altitude and above a second threshold altitude, wherein the first and second threshold altitudes are based on the other aircraft's altitude.
