Avaliação de desempenho de receptores ADS-B em sistemas de vigilância aérea baseados em Single Board

Abstract

The increasing density of air traffic over the years has highlighted the need for advanced technologies to ensure the safety and efficiency of air navigation. Among these technologies, ADS-B stands out, offering greater accuracy and reliability in aircraft tracking compared to traditional radar systems. This study presents a comparative analysis of different ADS-B receivers, focusing on performance and cost-effectiveness. To achieve this, two receivers are used, each connected to a single Orange Pi PC Plus board, totaling two connections. The developed system includes custom software for intercepting and decoding ADS-B messages, along with performance tests based on the metrics proposed in the literature. The results obtained provide recommendations on the best choice of ADS-B receivers for application in air surveillance systems, emphasizing accuracy, response time, and resource utilization.
