    VIAVI couplers solve the problem of reliable testing of FAR, Part 43, Annex “F” ERP (Effective Radiated Power) and transponder MTL (Minimum Trigger Level) in multipath environments. They provide attenuation greater than 20 dB to minimize dummy targets for ATC, TCAS, or ADS-B in equipped aircraft. Our couplers are securely mounted directly on the aircraft transponder antenna, allowing for shielded testing of the entire system while connecting to any VIAVI transponder or TCAS test equipment: AVX-10K, IFR6000/6015, APM-424, ATC-5000NG, or IFF-45TS.

2.1:Antenna Coupler Features

▪ Reliable effective radiated power and minimum trigger level testing

▪ Allows testing in highly multipath environments

▪ Provides >20 dB isolation

▪ Single and dual antenna kit configurations

▪ Rugged design suitable for ramp use


2.2:Antenna Coupler Advantages

▪ Effective ADS-B performance testing under airborne conditions

▪ Reduces false intrusions and interference with air traffic control

▪ Reduces issues reported in FAA SAFO 17002

▪ Achieves a high level of measurement repeatability, saving test time

▪ Universal design allows the coupler to be tested with any suitable transponder

▪ Eliminates DD-1494 requirements


03:ATC-5000NG

ATC/DME testing equipment and ADS-B target generator

    The VIAVI ATC-5000NG is an RF signal generator/receiver for testing Mode 3/A, C, and S transponders. Designed using modern software-defined radio technology, the ATC-5000NG is a replacement for the commercially available SDX-2000, ATC-1400A, and S-1403DL transponders. Capable of performing most MOPS tests for DO-181E, DO-260, DO-260A, DO-260B, and DO-282B, the ATC-5000NG is an ideal test device for engineering development, certification, manufacturing, and service.


The ATC-5000NG tests the following:

▪ Transponder (Mode S/ADS-B output)

▪ ADS-B in the receiver ▪ UAT receiver

▪ 1090 MHz DF18 transmitter (ground vehicle)

▪ ADS-B in the ground station receiver

▪ ADS-R, TIS-B ground station transmitter

▪ DME

3.1:Features of ATC-5000NG

▪ Target Generation - Independently configure up to 600 ADS-B, TIS-B, or ADS-R target types (32 dynamic and 568 static); requires ATCNGOPT03 multi-receiver option.

▪ ADS-B output test: ADS-B message decoding and logging.

▪ Provides DO-260B MOPS pre-configured test.

▪ Generates ATCRBS/Mode S queries.

▪ Multi-receiver test capability (ATCNGOPT03).

▪ Pulse and frequency measurement.

▪ Two independent transmitters and receivers.

▪ Transmit/receive data logging function.

▪ Traditional command set option.

▪ Full diversity test capability.


3.2:Advantages of ATC-5000NG
