Abstract:

The development of the IFF MARK X SIF Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System Performance Prediction Model ATCRBS PPM is described. This model provides performance predictions of the entire system or of selected subsystems. Military, civilian, or mixed equipment deployments for any geographic location can be considered. Actual, postulated, or future interrogator and aircraft deployments can be studied to determine system or equipment effectiveness. Deployments can include an unlimited number of aircraft transponders operating at altitudes up to 80,000 feet and distributed over an unlimited geographical area.
