Abstract: It is related to a mode S secondary surveillance radar system for carrying out a target (aircraft) surveillance with a high reliability, where a surveillance processor 39 produces a detection report of a acquisition surveillance by a scan of an antenna thereafter by adopting the mode A code information with coinciding code data among mode A code information acquired by scans of a plurality of times. In this way, the efficient utilization of RF channels during the roll-call period can be maintained while improving the reliability of a target detection report.

Abstract: An interrogation transmission method of a secondary surveillance radar compares prediction angle ranges for transmitting interrogations with a beam-width of an antenna, and transmits the interrogations at every roll-call period if the prediction angle ranges for transmitting interrogations are narrower than the beam-width of the antenna. In contrast, if the prediction angle ranges for transmitting the interrogations are wider than the beam-width of the antenna, the radar respectively sets a period to transmit the interrogations and a period not to transmit the interrogations until responses can be received, and transmits interrogations at every roll-call period after the responses can be received (even if a receiving error or downlink occurs).
