ATCBI-3 ALTITUDE AND IDENTITY READOUT MODIFICATIONS.

Abstract

This report deals with technical aspects of the design, development implementation and performance of a low-cost equipment modification providing 4096 radar beacon identity code decoding and altitude readout capabilities. It was designed at the National Aviation Facilities Experimental Center (NAFEC) for installation and operational test at Richmond, Virginia, Radar Approach Control Facility. The modification and addition to expand the capabilities of the Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System (ATCBI-3) to provide 4096 beacon identity code decoding and altitude readout is described.
