Hi all,
Another cool addition to CGRAN:
Project: Mode S Receiver for Tracking Commercial Aircraft
Contributor: Nick F.
Project Page: https://www.cgran.org/wiki/gr-air-modes
Description:
This module implements a complete Mode
Shttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_S#Mode_S
and
ADS-Bhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_dependent_surveillance-broadcast
receiver
for Gnuradio. The module allows you to track commercial aircraft which
are
broadcasting their position via ADS-B, and also prints altitude and ICAO
information for secondary surveillance interrogation responses. It also
has
plugins to output to PlanePlotter, and to KML for use with Google Earth.
