Abstract

This paper describes a theoretical model of TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) Antenna installed in an Aircraft. The theoretical analysis has been developed to study the overall effect on the aircraft due to the performance of TCAS Antenna. Bearing Angle measurement, Signal transmission and reception technique using TCAS Antenna has been discussed in this article. This paper also contains a new proposed idea of TCAS Antenna which might be more beneficial than the existing system of the aviation field.
