Patent number: 10539679Abstract: A method of detecting an unknown signal and estimating a source location of the unknown signal using aircraft based on an automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) system is provided. The method includes a first step (S100?) for obtaining from a plurality of airborne aircrafts provided with a network system, an aircraft signal transmitted to neighboring aircraft. The method further includes a second step (S200?) for detecting, by one of the plurality of aircraft, a presence of the unknown signal in the aircraft signal based on one of a time difference of arrival (TDOA) method, a time of arrival (TOA) method, and an angle of arrival (AOA) method. The method further includes a third step (S300?) for estimating the source location of the unknown signal and a fourth step (S400?) for transmitting unknown signal generation information and the source to neighboring aircraft and the ATC through a flight information services-broadcast (FIS-B).Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2016Date of Patent: January 21, 2020Assignee: Korea Aerospace Research InstituteInventors: Youngsun Yun, Jeongho Cho, Moonbeom Heo, Giwook Nam
