• Abstract:
  The 1030/1090 MHz Interference Simulator has been under development since March 1999, and currently replicates the interference production and operation of the existing surveillance systems and several proposed new Mode S applications. Efforts are ongoing to add new features and extend Simulator capabilities in additional directions. This report describes the Simulator structure, procedures for its use, and details of its key features. The Simulator has been used already to explore several current interference issues, and the results of those analyses are also included.
