Abstract

See full text

A collision avoidance system for aircraft in which one aircraft is equipped with an interrogation station having a secondary surveillance radar. .[.Coarse.]. .Iadd.A .Iaddend.distance measurement is effected either by passive or active distance measurement or by both of them. If the detected distance lies within a certain limit, the output power and/or period of the interrogation signal of the secondary surveillance radar of the subject aircraft is altered .[.so as to effect fine distance measurement.].. This system can be applied without increasing interference against the existing secondary surveillance radar system by keeping the output power and period of interrogation signal in a minimum required extent. By the same reason the system can keep the interference at a small extent between proximate aircraft, each mounting this collision avoidance system.
