Installed as option ATES-ELT The instrument will measure the following specified beacon characteristics: • Carrier frequency • Carrier power • Carrier power 1 ms before start of burst • Bit rate • Start time of transmission (90% power point, relative to returned samples) • Duration of burst • Duration of unmodulated carrier • Modulation phase • Modulation rise time, fall time • Modulation symmetry And will also provide: • I/Q samples for examining time plots of modulation • Spectrum from 406.0 to 406.1 MHz for evaluating spurious emissions • All received bits, either 112 or 144 for short/long formats. • Return bit fields broken into: — Protected data fields 1 nd 2, BCH field 1 and 2, non-protected data field (short message has PDF-1, BCH-1, non-protected field; long message has PDF-1, BCH-1, PDF- 2, BCH-2) — Calculated BCH-1, BCH-2 for comparison with received bits. (PDF-1 contains short/long flag and the 15-Hex ID number) • Decoded protocol information from the short/long format data, including: — Protocol used (e.g. ELT serial user protocol, ELT national location protocol) — Country — Type of auxiliary radio locator — Identification data (e.g. aircraft registration, 24-bit address, call sign, etc, depending on mode) |
