Aerobits Partners with UST to Advance UAV Avionics Technology

Aerobits, a prominent innovator in compact avionics solutions for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), has joined forces with Unmanned Systems Technology (UST) to showcase their cutting-edge capabilities. Their ‘Silver’ profile emphasizes the groundbreaking nature of their technology, which boasts the title of the smallest and fastest implementation of the ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast) air traffic monitoring system globally. This advancement plays a crucial role in enabling the seamless integration of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) into civilian airspace.

Introducing the TIM-C1: A High-Performance ADS-B Receiver

The TIM-C1 stands out as an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) high-performance ADS-B receiver, engineered with a sophisticated multi-core processor and a robust FPGA for rapid data processing and precise aircraft tracking. This system is capable of processing thousands of frames per second, utilizing a high-resolution analog-to-digital converter (ADC) paired with real-time signal processing driven by an advanced adaptive algorithm.

Scalability and Versatility of the TIM-C1

Complying with TSO-C199 standards, the TIM-C1 is a highly adaptable and scalable OEM solution, weighing just 2 grams. This lightweight design makes it suitable for a diverse range of UAV and drone applications,including collision avoidance systems,UAS ground stations,mobile air traffic information,and comprehensive traffic surveillance and analysis.

Accelerating Development with the EVAL-TIM-C1 Kit

The EVAL-TIM-C1 serves as an evaluation kit that enables developers to swiftly implement the TIM-C1 ADS-B receiver module. This development board is equipped with various features that facilitate the testing and evaluation of new applications for the TIM-C1, including extension I/O headers for GNSS sources and 256Mb of flash memory for offline data analysis.

Comprehensive Starter Kit for Enhanced testing

The starter kit comes complete with a wideband antenna (0-1dBi) and a 10.5cm U.fl / SMA adapter. Additionally, the included demonstration software offers 2D and 3D visualizations of aircraft positions, enhancing mapping capabilities for users.
