Transponders are wireless communications, monitoring, or control devices that detect incoming signals and react instantly.
The words transmitter and responder are combined to form the word. Transponders come in passive and active varieties.
Drone transponders assist drones maintain safe distances between themselves and other human or unmanned aircraft by providing collision avoidance and situational awareness.
Transponders are particularly crucial for smaller drones that may be invisible to major air traffic control radar.
Miniaturisation and electronic technology advancements have enabled the production of compact and lightweight miniaturised transponders and micro transponders for even the smallest UAVs.
The Global Drone Transponders Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
ping200X is the World’s First FAA TSO Certified Drone Transponder.
The ping200X, a leading Mode S ADS-B OUT UAS Transponder from uAvionix, the industry leader in communications, navigation, and surveillance (CNS) solutions for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), has been certified by the FAA to meet Technical Standard Order (TSO) requirements.
The revolutionary, low-Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) avionics created by uAvionix and approved for use on defence, general aviation (GA), and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are at their peak with the ping200X.
Ping200X barely weighs 50 grams and draws an average of 1.5 watts from the aircraft’s power source while transmitting 200 watts of power.
The ping200X profile fits on small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) and allows for longer flight periods and heavier payloads while using the least amount of energy possible.
Ping200X satisfies the standards of the global controlled airspace by providing safe separation information to Air Traffic Control (ATC), Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS), and Detect and Avoid (DAA) systems when used in conjunction with truFYX, uAvionix’s SBAS GPS.
ADS-B and transponder technology is essential for UAS integration in mixed-use airspace. The FAA’s recent rule on remote identification for UAVs specifies that for authorised operations, Part 21 certificated aircraft must be fitted with a Remote ID device and/or ADS-B OUT Transponder.
Furthermore, the FAA’s Concept of Operations for Upper-Class E Traffic Management (ETM) includes ADS-B and Mode S Transponders as critical technology for upper-atmosphere coordination.
