ADS-B/ADS-L Outdoor Receiver Station

AVIONIX provides a versatile and reliable ADS-B/ADS-L/OGN outdoor receiver station. It embeds the dual channel SDR receiver board which was adapted to hold UMTS/LTE module for wireless data transmission and a precise multi-constellation time & frequency reference GNSS module. The station consumes less than 12W power which allows it to be powered by a solar power or other renewable energy source. The receiver is either supplied with two single frequency cavity bandpass filters or a dual frequency cavity diplexer. The cavity filters provide protection against strong out-of-band signals and contribute to the best-in-class reception quality.

The station does the ADS-B decoding according to DO260/A/B and is fully ED-129B compliant.

Two stations can be combined to a redundant cluster.

Due to the precise timestamping the stations can be used for multilateration on Mode A/C/S.

The diplexer allows reception and processing on 868/1090 or 1030/1090 or 978/1090 MHz using a single antenna without the 3dB loss usually caused by an RF splitter. The SDR technology allows the receiver station to be used for multiple purposes, like reception of UAT 978 or VHF audio or monitoring on GPS frequencies. There are status LEDs visible from outside to inform about the power, connection and reception status. Additionally, there is the option for an internal multi-page status display to show detailed network, GPS and reception information.

There is the option to attach an SSD disk internally for data logging. On the baseboard a temperature/humidity/pressure sensor allows environmental monitoring inside the sealed receiver box. External sensors or a webcam may be attached to spare USB interfaces to additionally use the station for meteorological or environmental monitoring.
