Goheung aeronautical center is located in the area of Goheung of which land is reclaimed from sea and has a runway of length 700m, width 25m with test facility which has been used for flight test of UAV and small aircraft. To support the enhancement of aircraft safety, 1090ES ADS-B ground system as the ground surveillance system has been implemented. ADS-B system based on GPS and digital data link provides the function of enhancing the aircraft safety through flight information among aircrafts. This paper gives the result that the implementation of ADS-B ground system and the flight test with onboard ADS-B transmitter has been conducted.

Recently, U.S. and Europe, which are advanced to Air Traffic Control Management, are interest in replacing Radar System with Communications, Navigation and Surveillance(CNS) and Air Traffic Management(ATM). They pursue to research the efficient Air Traffic Control Management. This paper covers ADS-B 1090ES system which is one of CNS/ATM surveillance systems. This research satisfied all performance required by RTCA DO-268B and EUROCAE ED-129. It optimized algorism to mainly enhance performance such as quality of receiver signal, dynamic range, and so on. The optimized mechanism provided stable performance of demodulation, tuned the level of signal, and had reduced the false reception ratio by the signal level difference. The analyzed algorism helped great performance and will be considered to apply broad system applications.

This article introduces the next-generation air surveillance system and investigates how to design of front-end low noise amplifier of the ground station receiver. In consideration of the international standard documentation and the performance of existing products, the study conducts the link budget on the entire system so that it can be competitive in terms of receive sensitivity or reliability. To obtain a proper low noise amplifier, standards of design are decided so that such factors as gain, gain flatness, and reflective loss can be optimal. In its design, the bias circuit appropriate for the characteristics of low power, low noise, or high gain was built, and according to the results of the simulation conducted after the optimal design, its gain was 16.24dB, noise factor was 0.36dB, input-output reflective loss was -18dB and -28dB each, and frequency stability was 1.11. According to the results measured after the design, its gain was 17dB, noise factor was 0.51dB, gain flatness was 0.23dB, and input-output reflective loss was -18.28dB and -24.50dB each, so the results gained were suitable for building the overall system.

This paper covered the design and implementation of the demodulation receiver in the ADS-B 1090ES system, which is one of the CNS/ATM's surveillance systems. This researched demodulation performed at the level required by RTCA DO-268B and EUROCAE ED-129. The single signal process method, which applies a baseline multi-sample technique among multi-amplitude sample demodulations, was suggested to improve the quality of the receiver signal, the dynamic range and so on. The suggested multi-signal level tuning method has enhanced the single-signal process method, reducing the unstable reception ratio by the transmit output level difference and manufacturing receiver hardware. The result was that the receiver suggested by the method had 0~87dBm in dynamic range and -90dBm in MTL. This shows a better performance by -3dBm less than the international standard in ADS-B 1090ES ground receiver equipment. The systems which use a similar modulation method, will be considered to be widely applied.
