Commercial Applications: Title: "Satellite-Based Aircraft Tracking System for Enhanced Safety and Efficiency" This technology can be used by aviation authorities, airlines, and emergency response teams to improve aircraft tracking and communication, leading to safer and more efficient air travel operations.
Questions about Aircraft Tracking using a Satellite Network: 1. How does this technology improve air traffic control operations? - This technology enhances air traffic control by providing real-time aircraft tracking data, enabling better decision-making and coordination. 2. What are the key advantages of using a satellite network for aircraft tracking? - Using a satellite network ensures global coverage and reliable communication, even in remote areas.
Original Abstract Submitted
this disclosure describes techniques for tracking aircraft using a satellite network. an example method includes receiving ads-b messages from multiple aircraft; determining that at least one of the ads-b messages satisfies at least one condition; and in response to determining that at least one of the ads-b messages satisfies the at least one condition, transmitting an alert. in some cases, a system transmits an instruction to perform the example method to at least one satellite and receives the alert.
