Abstract

This paper presents a solution for ADS-B signal reception with RTL-SDR based on embedded Linux. This system utilizes an inexpensive RTL-SDR radio receiver for real-time reading of aeronautical messages, and it is experimentally demonstrated that this combination provides a significantly cost-effective way to track aircraft. By using an embedded Linux system, this paper demonstrates the high degree of portability and automation that can be achieved with RTL-SDR and its built-in ADS-B signal reception capability. The solution can be used in a wide range of applications and has high practical value.
