Many countries utilize ADS-B systems for improved flight safety and air traffic control performance, with the United States set to join Australia, Canada, and others when the FAA's mandate for aircraft within US airspace to operate ADS-B systems takes effect in 2020.
Southwest Antenna has designed a rugged, high performance antenna solution specifically for anyone who needs to install and operate an ADS-B ground station. Operating at 1,090 MHz and with 5.5 dBi of peak gain that is focused five degrees above the horizon, this antenna is designed to effectively deliver long-range communication performance, along with an optimized horizontal pattern to cover overhead aircraft at high elevation angles.
